The vintage-tall frets give you a great expressive range for huge bends and vibrant vibrato to expand your playability.
Driving the tone of this Strat are 3 vintage-style ‘60s pickups that encompass everything that make this guitar great. Providing crisp articulation for sweet, warm, and glassy tones, these pickups will enable you to experiment with a wide sonic palette that is perfect for multiple genres of music. The vintage style tremolo lets you dive and wail in abundance whilst maintaining tuning stability that with support from the vintage-style tuners.
