Description
Description
This second hand electric guitar is in great condition.
Includes hard case. 1997 model.
The 1997 Fender American Vintage '62 Stratocaster in Shoreline Gold is a standout instrument that marries vintage aesthetics with modern playability. As part of Fender's American Vintage Reissue (AVRI) series, this model pays homage to the classic 1962 Stratocaster while incorporating features that appeal to contemporary musicians.
Aesthetic Appeal
Introduced in 1997, the Shoreline Gold finish was a limited offering, making this model particularly sought after by collectors. The nitrocellulose lacquer finish not only provides a vintage look but also allows the guitar to age gracefully, developing a unique patina over time. The three-ply mint pickguard and cream-colored knobs and pickup covers complement the gold finish, enhancing its vintage charm.
Construction & Hardware
-
Body: Crafted from alder, the body offers a balanced tonal foundation
-
Neck: The maple neck features a slender "C" shape, measuring .820” at the 1st fret and .885” at the 12th fret, providing a comfortable playing experience. The rosewood slab fingerboard has a vintage-spec 7.25” radius, contributing to its classic feel.
-
Hardware: Equipped with a six-screw Synchronized Tremolo bridge and Kluson-style tuners, the guitar ensures stable tuning and smooth vibrato action. The inclusion of both a five-way pickup selector (installed) and the original three-way switch offers tonal versatility.
Sound & Performance
The trio of American Vintage '57/'62 single-coil pickups delivers the quintessential Stratocaster tones: bright, articulate, and responsive. Players can expect the characteristic "spank" in the bridge position, warm and bell-like tones from the neck pickup, and the signature "quack" in the in-between positions. The guitar's acoustic resonance is notable, contributing to its dynamic range and sustain.
The 1997 Fender American Vintage '62 Stratocaster in Shoreline Gold stands as a testament to Fender's commitment to quality and tradition. Its combination of vintage aesthetics, meticulous craftsmanship, and versatile tonal capabilities make it a valuable addition to any guitarist's collection. Whether you're a vintage enthusiast or a player seeking classic Strat tones, this model delivers on all fronts
