- The Fender American Vintage II series presents
a remarkably accurate take on the revolutionary designs
that altered the course of musical history.
Built with period-accurate bodies, necks, and hardware,
premium finishes and meticulously voiced,
year-specific pickups,
each instrument captures the essence
of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.
With its alluring curves, sparkling sounds
and groundbreaking tremolo bridge,
Fender's new 1954 Stratocaster was a phenomenon,
unlike anything the world had ever seen.
By 1957, the Stratocaster had crystallized
into a mid-century masterpiece.

- [Host] From the bridge to the string tree
and tuning machines,
every piece of American Vintage II hardware
is manufactured to look, sound and function
just like it did on the originals.
Much of the American Vintage II hardware is still
manufactured on the original '50s and '60s era
Fender factory machines.
The instruments in the American Vintage II Series
are direct descendants of the original Fenders.
Designed for players with a fine appreciation
for vintage Fender tone and feel.
And built with unmatched quality down to the last screw.
