Here for sale we have a Fender Classic Series '50s Stratocaster in Dakota Red finish. Made in Mexico in 2008, this guitar features a bolt-on construction comprising an Alder body, Maple neck and 21 fret Maple fingerboard. This guitar is equipped with a 6-Saddle Vintage-Style Synchronized Tremolo with Vintage-Style Stamped Steel saddles, as well as Fender Vintage-Style Split-Post tuning machines. The pickups are a trio of Vintage-Style Single-Coil Strat pickups. These are wired to the standard Stratocaster controls. The Maple neck plays beautifully, with the Soft 'V' profile promoting ergonomic thumb positioning and providing a suitably vintage-inspired playing experience. Certainly, the profile feels unique when compared with Fender's more modern 'C' shape necks. The 7.25" fingerboard radius provides this instrument with an authentically vintage playing experience, this, paired with the vintage frets offers a nicely vintage playing experience. The trio of Vintage-Style Single-Coil Strat pickups provide a wide range of tonal options, as is to be expected on a Stratocaster. The neck pickup offers warm and round tones, perfect for lead lines and soloing. The often overlooked middle pickup is great for funky tones, whilst the bridge position is as bright and biting as ever. The traditional control layout with no bridge tone control allows for a unique voice when splitting between the bridge and middle pickups with the middle tone rolled down.
