This is a vintage hot-rodded Strat for the 21st century! A Hot Rod '62 Strat is also available. Get a brand-new guitar with that magical broken-in feel with the Fender Vintage Hot Rod '57 Strat®.

Fender Vintage Hot Rod '57 Stratocaster® at a Glance:
  • Vintage specs with modern appointments
  • Modern pickups
  • Softer "V"-shaped neck


A brand-new old friend
Classic vintage styling and a thin nitrocellulose laquer finish mingle with modern pickups and a slimmed, softened "V"-style neck and medium jumbo frets on the Vintage Hot Rod '57 Strat. The result is a guitar with a vintage feel and modern tonal capabilities, giving it a broken-in vibe and adding functionality to a classic instrument. If you ever pined for the feeling you can only get from playing a great-sounding, lived-in axe but want a new instrument, here it is!

A classic vehicle with some real horsepower
Yes, it's got a classy, vintage appeal. But look a little closer at that bridge pickup. They put a DiMarzio Tone Zone in there! , From sparkling to scorching, you'll get whatever your tonal palette desires with this pickup selection, which also includes Parallel SCN (Neck) and SCN (Mid) units.

Ultra-comfortable neck
The Vintage Hot Rod '57 Strat's one-piece maple neck has that comfortable broken-in feeling, thanks to its slimmed and softened "V" shape. A flatter fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets also contribute to the easy playability of this instrument, which also comes with a vintage tweed case.
