A round-laminated rosewood fingerboard, vintage-correct hardware and three meticulously voiced early-'60s single-coils bring the era to life without the collector-shop price tag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthentic Early '60s Feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn alder body paired with a maple neck and round-laminated rosewood fingerboard is the defining recipe of an early-'60s Strat, and Fender has nailed it here. Combine that with the Early '60s \"C\" neck profile, 7.25\" vintage radius and vintage-tall frets, and you get that thicker-in-the-palm feel '60s players favoured for aggressive bending and rhythm work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVintage-Style Early '60s Single-Coil Pickups\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree custom-voiced early-'60s single-coils deliver bright, bell-like chime with just enough grit when you dig in. The Position 2 and 4 quack is alive and well — perfect for clean funk, roots, blues and anything that needs space and shimmer. Classic SSS wiring with a 5-way blade and two tone controls covers every essential Strat sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePeriod-Correct Hardware \u0026amp; Aesthetic\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBent-steel saddles, a vintage synchronised tremolo and vintage-style tuners deliver authentic feel and solid tuning stability once the guitar is properly set up. A bone nut, nickel\/chrome hardware, 3-ply mint green pickguard and clay-dot inlays complete the genuine early-'60s look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eShips With a Deluxe Gig Bag\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt in Fender's Ensenada, Mexico factory and set up in-store by Guitar World Australia's techs, your Vintera III arrives ready to play with a Fender deluxe gig bag included. A true vintage-DNA Stratocaster at a price that won't melt your credit
