The Fender® Vintera III series delivers meticulously crafted vintage recreations that capture the authentic look, feel, and tone of iconic Fender guitars from the '50s, '60s, and '70s.

The Vintera® III Early '60s Stratocaster® features an alder body paired with a maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, delivering that unmistakable Fender sound brimming with punch and crystal-clear articulation. The authentic early '60s “C”-shaped neck profile offers an instantly familiar playing experience that feels natural in your hands, while the 7.25" radius fingerboard with vintage-tall frets ensures supreme comfort and outstanding feel. At its heart, three meticulously crafted vintage-style early '60s single-coil pickups capture the bright, chimey tones that established Fender's reputation during this pivotal era. The vintage-style synchronized tremolo system provides effortless pitch manipulation, while period-correct vintage-style tuning machines deliver authentic looks with superior tuning precision.
