Fender Standard Stratocaster, RW, Brown Sunburst

The Made-in-Mexico Standard Stratocaster pays homage to the original Leo Fender strat at an affordable price point. This vintage Brown Sunburst finish takes us back to the 3-tone sunburst finishes of the 1960s - a classic!

An Authentic, Entry-Level Strat With Gorgeous Good Looks

Since 1956, the Stratocaster has evolved with advancements in technology and production techniques, but still retains the same great tone and unrivalled playability. The Standard Strat represents an economical entry point into Fender's best-selling guitar of all time, without compromise to playing comfort, great tone and the same vintage stage appeal.

Few guitars carry the same prestige and rich history as the Stratocaster - since 1954, the Fender Stratocaster has become an icon of modern music. Certified by legends like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler and Yngwie Malmsteen (plus countless others), the Strat is the one of the most exciting shredding machines available to date.

With the Mexican-made Standard Stratocaster, you get all the hallmark features of an iconic guitar. A fast-action maple neck, a comfort-contoured alder body, three single-coil pickups, and standard synchronized tremolo all help define the savage rock tone of a Standard Stratocaster. Modern touches include shielded body cavities help to reduce hum and ensure quieter operation.

The Standard Series Strat features a more modern C-shape maple neck with a satin polyester finish on the back and a gloss finish on the fretboard and headstock. Playability and the legendary Strat 'Spank' is all evident with this inexpensive, modern re-issue of one of the all-time greats.

Now is the perfect time to upgrade to an authentic Fender Stratocaster, available now for demonstration at PMT Stores around the country. The only question is - which colour to choose?
