Early-1959 model in faded Thre
1959 was an important and highly evolutionary year for the Stratocaster because that''s when slimmer necks, rosewood fingerboards and multi-ply laminated pickguards first appeared
The American Vintage ''59 Stratocaster presents two versions of that year''s pivotal transitional model; one from early 1959 and one from later 1959
Both have the slim-profile D-shaped maple neck of that year, with the earlier version featuring a maple fingerboard and single-ply white pickguard with eight holes; the later version featuring a dark rosewood slab fingerboard and three-ply mint green pickguard with 10 holes and vintage-style edge bevels
Both also feature a lightweight alder body, aged plastic knobs and vintage-accurate pickups, bridge saddles, tuner spacing and more
Early-1959 model in faded Three-color Sunburst has slim-profile D-shaped maple neck and single-ply white pickguard with eight holes
Later-1959 model in faded Three-color Sunburst, Black and limited faded Sonic Blue has slim-profile D-shaped maple neck, dark rosewood slab fingerboard and three-ply mint green pickguard with 10 holes
