{"product_id":"fender-american-vintage-ii-1965-stratocaster","title":"Fender American Vintage II 1965 Stratocaster","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 1965 Stratocaster is a transition-year guitar, built just as the original design began to change, and this one keeps those details: the larger transition logo, a round-laminated rosewood board with bigger pearloid dots, and an 11-hole 3-ply eggshell pickguard. Alder body under gloss nitrocellulose lacquer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pickups are Pure Vintage '65 Gray-Bottom single-coils, named for the grey fibre bottoms used that year. The 1965 \"C\" neck has a 7.25\" radius and vintage tall frets, round under the hand for chords, with the usual note that big bends high up like slightly higher action. The vintage synchronized tremolo has bent steel saddles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1961 Stratocaster is the earlier slab-board version with clay dots, and the 1973 Stratocaster shows where the design ended up in the next decade. Offered in Sonic Blue, Candy Apple Red and Shoreline Gold.\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 Eggshell\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: 1965 \"C\"\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Radius: 7.25\" (184.1 mm)\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Material: Round-Laminated Rosewood\u003cbr\u003ePosition Inlays: White Pearloid Dot - 7 mm\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 '65 Gray-Bottom Single-Coil Strat\u003cbr\u003eMiddle Pickup: Pure Vintage '65 Gray-Bottom Single-Coil Strat\u003cbr\u003eNeck Pickup: Pure Vintage '65 Gray-Bottom Single-Coil Strat\u003cbr\u003ePickup Configuration: SSS\u003cbr\u003eControls: Master Volume, Tone 1.
