A celebration of the early days of the Strat in the 1950s, the Classic Vibe ‘50s Stratocaster HT produces incredible tone courtesy of its three Fender Designed alnico single-coil pickups. An option first introduced in 1955, the hardtail bridge (HT) provides stable intonation and its string-through-body design creates optimal body resonance. This throwback Squier model also features 1950s-inspired headstock markings, rich-looking nickel-plated hardware and a slick vintage-tinted gloss neck finish for an old-school vibe.
