It has great vintage voiced pickups and phenomenal finishes like this one finished in eye catching Lake Placid Blue. This guitar is a great player and ships in a nice gigbag. Fenders website has this to say about this Classic Series model- “For guitarists who must have original-era Strat® sound, look and feel, the Classic Series '60s Stratocaster epitomizes the instrument during its second decade, when musicians used it to conjure and create electrifying sounds never before imagined or experienced. With its authentic features and finishes, everything about it takes you back to a wildly creative time when rock music came into its own—from surf to psychedelia and more—and players started to discover in earnest just what a phenomenal instrument the Stratocaster really was.”
