About this gear

Overview

We compare verified prices from multiple retailers for this exact model and finish, new and used. You choose where to buy.

The Fender® Stratocaster® was light years ahead of its contemporaries when it was introduced in 1954, instantly becoming a timeless classic with its ergonomically contoured double-cutaway body, versatile triple pickup configuration and inventive spring-loaded tremolo bridge. Built to accompany players on their formative musical adventures, the Fender Standard Stratocaster delivers the approachable playability and inspiring tone that made Fender an icon of rock & roll.
