This is a very lightly played 2025 guitar, still in overall excellent shape with just very light wear to be seen! When you're looking for vintage-accurate Fender guitars without going up to Custom Shop or an actual vintage guitar - the American Vintage II series is where it's at to find period-accurate bodies, neck profiles, colors and hardware! This is the Fender American Vintage II 1965 Stratocaster. Smack in the middle of one of music most electrifying decades, the Stratocaster in 1965 was an instrument on its way to becoming rock greatest electric guitar. A perfect example of a Strat in a transition year, the 1965 Stratocaster features a 1965 C shaped maple neck, this time with a round-laminated rosewood fingerboard and larger pearl dot inlays. Other authentic features include an 11-hole three-ply white pickguard, the incredibly cool transition logo with larger lettering, and a set of amazing gray bottom Pure Vintage 1965 pickups.
