We want to cater to the feelings of guitarists who want a vintage instrument that they can pick up and play without any pressure, rather than just a collector's item to look at. This 1966 Stratocaster is the instrument that fulfills that wish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn January 1965, Fender was sold to CBS, but Leo Fender continued to be involved in development as a consultant.\u003cbr\u003eThis 1966 Stratocaster is a model born right in the transitional period, and while it's from the CBS era, it retains specifications that strongly reflect Leo Fender's philosophy.\u003cbr\u003eIt features a transition logo, a thick headstock, a round-laminated rosewood fingerboard, and an ultra-thin lacquer finish that embodies the philosophy that \"the thinner the paint, the better.\"\u003cbr\u003eThe sunburst effect, where the redness from sun exposure fades and a pale yellowish tint develops, is a unique look created by time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sound is different from the stickiness and power of the early 60s.\u003cbr\u003eA lighter, more airy tone.\u003cbr\u003eIts natural response makes you want to play it for hours on end.\u003cbr\u003eThe pickups feature gray bobbins, resulting in a pleasant clarity in the high frequencies.\u003cbr\u003eWhile it originally had a 3-way switch, replacing it with a 5-way switch will further enhance the appeal of the half-tones.\u003cbr\u003eThis is a vintage guitar that can be enjoyed as is, and it will serve its purpose to the fullest as a guitar that you can play and have fun with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Stratocasters from the early CBS era, a transitional period, featured specifications unique to that time, with a perfect blend of pre-CBS aesthetics and CBS-era characteristics.\u003cbr\u003eThe number of highly original specimens is decreasing year by year, and it is extremely rare for one to appear on the market in this condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1966 Stratocaster exudes vintage style while offering the reassuring comfort of everyday playability. Experience its light and resonant tone for yourself. This is a guitar I wholeheartedly recommend to both collectors and players.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[Instrument Column]\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/tcgakki.com\/pages\/the-vintage-fender-guitar\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eEnchanting Vintage Guitars\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[SPEC]\u003cbr\u003eBODY: Alder\u003cbr\u003eNECK: Maple \u003cbr\u003eFINGERBOARD: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003ePICKUP: 3 Original Single Coil\u003cbr\u003eWEIGHT: 3.5kg\u003cbr\u003eNut width: 41.3mm\u003cbr\u003ew\/Original Hardcase\u003cbr\u003eLong Scale Neck\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Thorough adjustments are performed at our store, and a 5-year adjustment guarantee is included for your peace of mind.\u003cbr\u003e*Please feel free to contact our staff for more details about the product.\u003cbr\u003e*We will buy back any items you purchased from our store at a high price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContact person: Matsui\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bcSsaVPjnfc?si=SrV1bWFJFxNW-4cD\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fender","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50296573231341,"sku":"14740","price":2420000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/1321\/3933\/files\/1966-stratocaster-sunburst-rosewood-174407.jpg?v=1755495669","url":"https:\/\/tcgakki.com\/en\/products\/fender-1966-stratocaster-sunburst-rosewood","provider":"TC楽器 - TCGAKKI","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
