{"product_id":"fender-american-vintage-ii-1961-stratocaster","title":"Fender American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 1961 Stratocaster is the slab-board Strat, alder with a flat-bottomed rosewood fingerboard glued to the maple neck, and this one is built to that year. Gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, a 3-ply mint green pickguard, clay dots and three Pure Vintage '61 single-coils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1961 \"C\" neck is a medium carve with a 7.25\" radius and vintage tall frets. The round radius suits chords and rhythm playing. Bends past a whole step high up can fret out unless the action is set a touch higher. The tremolo is the vintage synchronized unit with bent steel saddles and a screw-in arm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the same pickups on a modern neck with stainless frets, see the American Ultra Luxe Vintage '60s Stratocaster. The 1957 Stratocaster is the maple-board version from a few years earlier. Offered in Surf Green, Fiesta Red, Olympic White and 3-Color Sunburst, with left-handed Fiesta Red and Olympic White.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBODY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Origin: USA\u003cbr\u003eBody Material: Alder\u003cbr\u003eBody Finish: Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr\u003eBody Shape: Stratocaster\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: 3-Ply Mint Green\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNECK\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeck Material: Maple\u003cbr\u003eNeck Construction: 4-Bolt\u003cbr\u003eNeck Finish: Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr\u003eNeck Shape: 1961 \"C\"\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Radius: 7.25\" (184.1 mm)\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Material: Slab Rosewood\u003cbr\u003ePosition Inlays: Clay Dot\u003cbr\u003eSide Dots: Vintage Clay\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Frets: 21\u003cbr\u003eFret Size: Vintage Tall\u003cbr\u003eTruss Rod: Vintage-Style Butt Adjust\u003cbr\u003eNut Material: Bone\u003cbr\u003eNut Width: 1.650\" (42 mm)\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 25.5\" (648 mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELECTRONICS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pickup: Pure Vintage '61 Single-Coil Strat\u003cbr\u003eMiddle Pickup: Pure Vintage '61 Single-Coil Strat\u003cbr\u003eNeck Pickup: Pure Vintage '61 Single-Coil Strat\u003cbr\u003ePickup Configuration: SSS\u003cbr\u003eControls: Master Volume, Tone 1.
