The Fender JV Modified ’50s Stratocaster HSS combines classic aesthetics with modern playability, drawing inspiration from the now highly sought-after “Japanese Vintage” reissues of the early ’80s. It has a resonant basswood body and features a pair of vintage-voiced single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions, and a powerful humbucker in the bridge position. A push-pull pot on Tone 2 splits the humbucking pickup for sparkling single-coil sounds, making this Strat extremely versatile. The Soft "V"-shaped maple neck has a silky-smooth satin finish and the 9.5" radius maple fingerboard and medium-jumbo frets provide effortless playability. Additional appointments to the JV Modified ’50s Strat HSS include a 6-saddle vintage-style synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles, 1-ply parchment pickguard and nickel/chrome hardware. 

The JB Modified '50s Stratocaster HSS comes with a deluxe gig bag.
