Fender-Designed Alnico Pickups with HSS Versatility
Loaded with a Fender-Designed Alnico humbucker in the bridge position alongside two Alnico single-coils in the neck and middle, this guitar offers a rich, expressive tonal platform. The bridge humbucker delivers a punchy, high-output response that drives valve amplifiers into smooth breakup, while the single-coils produce the crisp articulation and glassiness that defined 1970s rock and funk. A 5-way selector switch provides instant access to iconic in-between tones, master volume, and individual tone controls for shaping your sound on the fly.
Slim "C" Neck with Vintage-Tint Gloss Finish
The maple neck is carved to a player-friendly slim "C" profile that provides effortless navigation across the entire fingerboard. Finished in a rich vintage-tint gloss urethane, it delivers a smooth playing experience combined with an authentic aged aesthetic. Paired with a standard 9.5" (24.1 cm) fingerboard radius and 21 narrow-tall frets, this neck setup ensures easy chordal work near the nut and fluid, choke-free note bending higher up the fretboard.
Authentic 1970s Aesthetics and Headstock Detail
Capturing the visual spirit of an iconic era, this model features the distinctive 1970s-style large headstock complete with period-correct headstock markings and a 4-bolt neck plate. The vintage-style overall styling is complemented by rich nickel-plated hardware, providing a durable, period-accurate look that resists corrosion while maintaining classic stage appeal.
Vintage-Style Synchronised Tremolo and Bone Nut

At the headstock end, a real bone nut ensures superior string vibration transfer and precise intonation, complemented by classic vintage-style tuning machines for smooth gear engagement and reliable tuning stability.
