Bell-like, jangly, smooth, and bluesy - ask any seasoned Strat player at Sweetwater, and you'll get slightly different descriptions of what this iconic guitar is supposed to sound like. Words alone can't capture the sound, but the revolutionary 1954 Single-coil Stratocaster pickups Fender equipped this 60th Anniversary Commemorative Stratocaster with certainly can. And thanks to the no-load tone controls for the middle and bridge pickups, you can get the purest possible Strat tone from this axe.
Compound-radius fretboard delivers modern playing performanceIn addition to its fast-playing modern-C-shaped neck, this Fender 60th Anniversary Commemorative Stratocaster offers you the extreme comfort and convenience of a compound radius fretboard. Down near the headstock, this fretboard offers you the standard 9.5" radius that makes fretting chords on a Strat so easy. But, as you ascend the 60th Anniversary Commemorative Stratocaster's 22 medium jumbo frets, this surface flattens out to 14", providing you with ample room for bends and plenty of space to make fast solo runs come off as cleanly as possible.
Special hardware looks great and gives you perfect playing feelAs soon as you pick up a Fender 60th Anniversary Commemorative Stratocaster, you can tell just how much attention to detail went into this instrument. Speaking of details, you really can't help but admire the 60th Anniversary Commemorative Stratocaster's gold hardware, plus the engraved 4-Bolt 60th Anniversary neck plate and matching medallion on the headstock are a nice touch.
