Overview

The Fender Vintera III Early ’60s Stratocaster is a meticulously crafted vintage recreation that captures the authentic look, feel, and tone of Fender’s early 1960s era. Built with an alder body and maple neck paired with a slab rosewood fingerboard, it delivers a classic Fender voice with punch, clarity, and bright, chimey highs.
