The Fender 70th Anniversary Vintera II Antigua Stratocaster celebrates seven decades of Stratocaster innovation with iconic style. This special-edition Strat showcases the coveted Antigua finish, complemented by a hand-painted matching pickguard. The alder body and maple neck provide the classic Fender tone and feel that defined the '70s Strat sound. Under the hood, a trio of 70th Anniversary vintage-style '70s single-coil pickups deliver the perfect blend of warmth and bite. Alder Body With Iconic Antigua Finish and Matching Pickguard The alder body with the special Antigua finish and 4-ply pickguard evokes Fender's classic surf rock legacy. Antigua bursts at the seams with vintage mojo, wearing the passage of time with pride. The thin satin finish allows the wood to resonate freely. This lightweight tonewood combination helps produce the signature sparkling Stratocaster tone—with plenty of snap and clarity. Comfortable U-Shaped Maple Neck Based on a '70s Profile The 70th Anniversary Vintera II Stratocaster has a maple neck featuring a comfortable U profile based on a classic '70s shape. It offers a remarkably natural feel, allowing your hands to move freely up and down the neck. The satin urethane back finish enhances the worn-in feel. Plus, the 7.25" radius rosewood fingerboard with 21 vintage-tall frets provides vintage-style playability. Rosewood Fingerboard With Vintage-Tall Frets for Smooth Playability The rosewood fingerboard with vintage-tall frets makes playing silky smooth. The tall fretwire allows for expressive string bends and vibrato. The 7.25" radius feels familiar to most electric guitarists. And the pearloid dot inlays provide a classic visual touch. Overall, it's a fingerboard built for comfort during long gigs. Vintage-Accurate '70s Single-Coil Pickups for Classic Strat Tones The Fender 70th Anniversary Vintera II Antigua Stratocaster features a set of 70th Anniversary vintage-style '70s single-coil Strat pickups, providing authentic bell-like tones. The bridge pickup has increased output for a bold, biting lead tone. The middle pickup delivers a quacking, funky rhythm sound. And the neck pickup produces a smooth, mellow jazz tone. Together, they cover the classic Stratocaster tonal spectrum. Vintage-Style Hardtail Bridge for Rock-Solid Tuning Stability The vintage-style hardtail bridge utilizes six individual saddles for improved intonation compared to vintage floating bridges. Combined with the vintage-style F-stamped tuners, it provides rock-solid tuning stability, even during heavy tremolo use. The strings-through-body design enhances resonance for rich, sustaining tones.
