Fender FSR 50s Stratocaster Fiesta Red - Maple Neck
If you're looking for that original 50's-era stratocaster tone then look no further, boasting a traditional fiesta red finish with a high gloss maple neck this guitar is true to the era and is rounded off with all gold hardware. It truly is stunning to look at, play and listen to.
Construction
In keeping with the traditional Stratocaster styling and construction the FSR 50s Stratocaster is made up of an Alder body making the guitar lightweight yet dense enough for a resonant and crisp tone. Paired to the body is a high gloss maple neck consisting of a maple fretboard, 21 vintage-style frets, 7.25" fretboard radius and last but not least the ever popular Soft V neck profile. This profile usually kept for the Custom shop models is now available at much more affordable price point. All these little details make the FSR 50s Strat not only stunning to look at but a dream to play, the soft V profile allows for enough grip and movement without being too chunky. A top of the neck is Fenders traditional Stratocaster headstock fitted with a 6-inline set of gold vintage machine heads which provide fantastic tuning stability as well as keeping with the vintage 50s look.
Electronics & Tone
The FSR 50s Stratocaster comes fitted with a set of Fender American Vintage 56' Pickups, these pickups not only have aged covers to give a more vintage look to them but are also wound to the exact specification as the original strat pickups used back in 1956, with the added benefit of modern technology such as coated magnet wire for a brighter tone. These pickups have a very prominent mid-range response with a focused and responsive bass. Fitted with the standard strat control configuration you have a 5-way selector switch, Master Volume control and 2 independent Tone controls.
