American Vintage II Series

American Vintage II is a series of incredibly accurate reproductions of groundbreaking electric guitars and basses that changed the history of music. Featuring period-correct body shapes, necks, hardware configurations, premium finishes, and meticulously crafted pickups voiced specifically for the era, these instruments capture the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.

By 1973, the CBS design became standard, and Fender guitars and basses featuring it were widely used by rock, funk, fusion, and prog players around the world. Weekly late-night music shows like "Don Kirshner's Rock Concert" and "Midnight Special" put Fender products in greater public view than ever before, further cementing the Stratocaster's presence in pop culture.

The American Vintage II 1973 Stratocaster® features three Pure Vintage '73 Staggered Pole pickups, a large headstock with dual string trees, a convenient Bullet-style truss rod nut located in the headstock, and a three-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt™ technology. The 1973 C-shaped maple neck features a 7.25"-radius maple or rosewood fingerboard with 21 vintage-tall frets, evoking the playability of an instrument from that era. Developed to celebrate Fender's iconic guitar shape, the American Vintage II 1973 Stratocaster features an ash body and two finishes: Lake Placid Blue and Mocha. The Mocha model is the first Stratocaster to feature a black pickguard. Other premium features include vintage-style F-logo tuning machines and a synchronized tremolo with bent-steel saddles and a cold-rolled steel block.

American Vintage II is a series for players who love the tone and feel of vintage Fender instruments, faithfully recreating the guitars and basses that laid the foundation for Fender. These guitars and basses have shaped music history, brought back to life with modern technology.

This time, we have a recommended used item in stock! It is made in 2022.
There are some minor scratches, scratches on the pickguard, and some tarnish on the parts, but none of these affect playability. This guitar has been fully maintained and cleaned at our shop, so it's ready to play right away.
There is a small paint chip on the fingerboard at the 19th fret, but this does not affect playability or cause any problems.
There is a slight bend in the screw part of the arm, but it can currently be turned in.
I don't think it will break easily, but if you do a lot of extreme arm play, I recommend replacing it.

The frets have been lightly filed and are ready to use. Approximately 85% of the frets remain.
The nut is in good condition and can be used as is. The truss rod can be adjusted normally.

It weighs approximately 3.97 kg. Although it is heavy, it is well-balanced to produce a solid sound.
This guitar has an atmospheric ash wood grain and a Mocha color that really stands out!

Accessories include the original hard case, key, arm, and bridge cover.
*The screw part of the arm is slightly bent.
