Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The 2-Color Sunburst version of Fender’s American Vintage II 1957 Stratocaster follows a 1957-style recipe: ash body, gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, one-piece maple V-profile neck, and maple fingerboard. Its three Pure Vintage ’57 single-coils work through a five-way selector, master volume, and two tone controls, so pickup changes and tonal adjustments remain direct. A synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles, vintage-style tuners, and a single-ply pickguard complete the period-oriented specification. Fender supplies a vintage-style tweed case.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want a 1957-style Stratocaster with three single-coil pickups and a five-way switching layout.
- Players comfortable with a V-shaped maple neck and a 7.25-inch-radius maple fingerboard.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who prefer a neck profile other than V-shaped.
- Players seeking a fingerboard material other than maple.
