Fender American Original 60's Stratocaster Sunburst 2022
Fender American Original 60s Strat, sunburst, made in USA 2022. The Am' Orig' series replaced the long running American Vintage line for a couple of years there, before being replaced again by... the American Vintage series again. This model was based on the '65 Strat, so you get a rosewood radius laminate fretboard, mid-60s gold transition decal, three single coils and the stamped saddles. The neck feels great: not super skinny, but not a big fat thing either, and carved from some nice maple. The previous owner replaced the guard with an eggshell coloured example, for maximum mid-60s accuracy, as well as installing a gorgeous set of Eric Johnson pickups. They're beautiful sounding pickups, with a combo of alnico III and V magnets to add extra kick to the bridge pickup while maintaining a broad, singing clarity on the neck and middle. This sounds seriously good: clear, fat and extremely responsive, it's extremely nice. Original case and docs included, original parts not. Nice!
