2024 Fender Stratocaster American Vintage II – Fiesta Red

The Altitude Summary

This 2024 Fender Stratocaster American Vintage II in Fiesta Red is a USA-made Strat that pairs classic Fender appointments with modern setup readiness. Condition: Excellent — frets show minimal wear and the gloss nitro finish has only light surface marks consistent with careful use. Playability is immediate: a comfortable C-shaped maple neck, slab rosewood fingerboard and a true 7.25" radius give a familiar, vintage-feel under the hand while responding cleanly from fingerstyle to aggressive pick attack. Weight: 7.7 lbs — sitting on the lighter side of typical American Vintage II examples, it’s easy to wear through long rehearsals and gigs without fatigue. Serial: V2450812.

Heritage-Built Body & Neck

A classic Stratocaster alder body dressed in gloss nitrocellulose lacquer delivers resonant, balanced tone with vintage snap and warmth. The maple neck carved into a player-friendly C shape and a slab rosewood fingerboard with clay dot inlays recreate that vintage Strat silhouette while remaining comfortable for modern players. Nut width is 1.650 in and the 25.5 in scale gives classic Fender string tension and articulation.

Pure Vintage Tone

Equipped with Pure Vintage '61 single-coil Strat pickups across an SSS layout, this Stratocaster sings with chiming highs, glassy mids and focused lows. The 5-position blade selector plus master volume and two tone controls unlock the full palette from bell-like neck tones to biting bridge twang. The American Vintage II synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles delivers vintage-spec feel and smooth action.

Player-First Hardware & Setup

Notes include Fender vintage-style tuners, nickel/chrome hardware, a 6-screw American Vintage II bridge with 6 vintage-style saddles, and a 21-fret fingerboard with a 7.25" radius. Setup is tuned for balanced action and clean intonation out of the case—great for studio work or stage duties. This example is ready to plug in and play or to be personalized by players who like to tweak vintage-correct instruments.
