‘70s Fender Stratocaster Maple Fretboard
The ‘70s Stratocaster provides a different flavour compared to its predecessors. Not only are there some aesthetic differences, such as the larger headstock, but a slight change in the neck profile offering a different feel in playability. The Vintera II ‘70s Stratocaster features a “U” shape neck is slightly chunkier at the shoulders for a bigger, thicker feel that is remarkably comfortable and suitable for many different hand styles. The Maple fretboard and Alder body combination offers a crisp and vibrant tone for punchy midranges and full-bodied low ends.
The vintage-style ‘70s Strat pickups provide a hot, crisp, and articulate sound that Fender guitars are famous for. Combined with a vintage-style synchronized tremolo, you can adjust this 6-point tremolo to you preferred position so that you can experiment with expressive vibrato. The Vintera II ‘70s Stratocaster delivers a different flavour from the other Strats in the series. It offers you a choice between Maple or Rosewood fingerboards, and a slightly thicker neck for surprising comfortability that suits a variety of different hand shapes and playing styles.
