At a time when musicians were altering, incinerating and evoking sounds never experienced or imagined by anyone at Fender, rock music came into its own. The Stratocaster guitar led the sonic charge and became a symbol of the counter-culture. The Classic Series "60s Stratocaster captures a seminal chapter in Fender history, with features including an alder body, rosewood fingerboard, multi-ply pickguard and vintage hardware.
