PRE-OWNED Fender AVII 60s Stratocaster - Fiesta Red with Hard Shell Case

 

The Fender AVII 60s Stratocaster:  A Vintage Revival Done Right

A 1961 Reissue with Timeless Style

Fender’s American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster in Fiesta Red is a true-to-form recreation of one of the most iconic eras in electric guitar history. Built in 2024, this model captures the essence of early-'60s craftsmanship with period-correct appointments like a gloss nitrocellulose finish, clay dot inlays, and slab rosewood fingerboard. This pre-owned example has been gently played and remains in excellent working condition, with only light signs of use that add a bit of character to its otherwise classic aesthetic.

Comfortable Vintage Neck with Authentic Feel

The maple neck features Fender’s early '60s "C" shape for an effortlessly playable, vintage-feeling profile. A 7.25-inch radius rosewood fingerboard with 21 vintage tall frets delivers that familiar Strat response—easy bending, smooth chord work, and comfortable movement up and down the neck. It’s everything a classic Strat neck should be, brought to life with modern precision.

Pure Vintage Pickups, Classic Strat Tone

Three Pure Vintage '61 single-coil pickups bring the unmistakable shimmer and snap of the era’s golden tones. The 5-way switching gives you access to everything from warm neck cleans to spanky bridge bite, all with that unmistakable Stratocaster sparkle. Whether you're chasing classic tones or adding your own modern edge, this Strat stays faithful to its sonic roots.

Light Signs of Use, No Issues with Playability

This guitar shows light surface wear from normal use, including some minor pickguard scuffing and small wear marks on the body. These cosmetic imperfections are subtle and do not detract from the instrument’s overall look or feel. There is one shallow dent near the back contour and another near the bass side horn, but both are small and purely visual. See photos for detail. The frets are clean, the neck is smooth, and the instrument is structurally solid with no issues.

Complete with Original Case and Accessories

This AVII Stratocaster comes complete with its original brown Fender hard shell case, bridge cover, and original literature. Whether you're a player seeking vintage tone or a collector looking to round out your lineup, this is a lightly played, well-maintained example of Fender's AVII series at its best.
