Construction

The Vintage Modified 70s Stratocaster is made up a Basswood body, a popular choice of tone wood for electric guitars due to it's solid and durable properties as well as is being lightweight making it more comfortable to play whether standing or seated. Bolted to the Basswood body is a maple neck and maple fingerboard native to fender stratocasters in the 1950s. The high gloss finish provides easy movement up and down the neck, paired with the popular C shaped neck profile which allows for a firm grip without being as chunky as to inhibit those with smaller hands. Topped off with a vintage 70s style oversized headstock which finishes the guitar off beautifully.
