Fender Vintera III Late '60s Stratocaster Electric Guitar in Ocean Turquoise

The Fender Vintera III Late '60s Stratocaster in Ocean Turquoise delivers the look, feel and sound of a classic late sixties Strat, with modern build consistency and reliability. With its alder body, round-laminated rosewood fingerboard and period-correct big headstock, it nails that unmistakable Fender vibe while a trio of vintage-style late '60s single-coils serve up the chime, snap and sparkle that defined an era of rock, blues and psychedelia.

Designed for players who want a genuinely vintage playing experience, this Strat pairs a late '60s C-shaped neck with a 7.25 inch radius fingerboard and vintage-tall frets for an instantly familiar feel. The vintage-style synchronised tremolo and Fender F-stamped tuners complete the package, giving you classic looks and performance that invite you to dig in, bend notes and explore expressive vibrato.

Authentic Late '60s Feel

The late '60s C-shaped neck profile is slim and rounded in all the right places, sitting comfortably in the hand whether you are playing chords, double-stops or lead lines. Combined with the 7.25 inch fingerboard radius and vintage-tall frets, you get that slinky, played-in feel associated with sought-after originals, while still having enough fret height for confident bends and vibrato.

Classic Strat Tone

Three vintage-style late '60s single-coil Strat pickups capture the bright, articulate and dynamic character that made these guitars legendary. From glassy neck tones and hollow, quacky in-between sounds to a cutting bridge position, the Vintera III Late '60s Stratocaster covers everything from subtle cleans to driven rock tones with ease, always retaining clarity and note definition.

Vintage-Correct Hardware

A 6-saddle vintage-style synchronised tremolo with bent steel saddles delivers smooth pitch modulation and that unmistakable Strat sustain and resonance. Paired with Fender vintage F-stamped tuners and a 6-screw tremolo mounting, the hardware looks period-correct while providing solid tuning stability and a responsive feel under the picking hand.

Ocean Turquoise Style

The gloss polyester finish in Ocean Turquoise gives this Strat a striking late sixties aesthetic that stands out on stage and in the studio. The 3-ply parchment pickguard, vintage white plastics and aged-white pearloid dot inlays complete the look, giving you a guitar that looks every bit as inspiring as it sounds.

• Vintage-Style Late '60s Single-Coil Pickups - A trio of specially voiced late '60s Strat pickups delivers bright, punchy and articulate tones with plenty of chime.
