This is the new for 2018 Fender American Original '50s Stratocaster! The American Original takes the appearance of a Stratocaster in its classic White Blonde finish and gives it a modern tweak with vintage-tall frets and a 9.5 radius. The pickups are the new Pure Vintage '59 Single-Coils, made as period-correct as possible from the formvar-coated coil wire to the cloth-covered output wires, fiber bobbins and alnico 5 magnets.
