The JV Modified Series combines classic aesthetics with modern playability to suit the needs of today’s guitarist. Taking cues from the now highly sought-after “Japanese Vintage” reissues from the early ‘80s, JV Modified guitars are a refined take on a modern classic.

The '50s Stratocaster HSS has a resonant basswood body and features a pair of vintage-voiced single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions and a powerful humbucking pickup 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.

For the player seeking classic Fender instruments with a twist, the JV Modified Series delivers a unique combination of vintage Fender style and modern playability.

FENDER VINTAGE-STYLE LOCKING TUNERS

The Fender Vintage-Style locking tuners are a perfect fit for the Fender MIJ 50's Strat. With vintage styling and excellent tuning stability these are a great set of Machine Heads.

FENDER VINTAGE VOICED PICKUPS

This guitar features Fender vintage voiced pickups. They have a bright, clear sound that helps to achieve that iconic Strat tone. Fabulous cleans through to cutting overdriven sounds. The humbucker in the bridge position makes the guitar very versatile, possessing many tonal capibilities.

GLOSS POLYURETHANE FINISH  

The Polyurethane finish is much more resistant to general wear, meaning that scratches and dings are harder to see and inflict. This helps to leave your new Stratocaster looking shiny even after decades of use!

BASSWOOD BODY

Fender's long-established wood combinations remain intact with the Made in Japan Strat. Featuring a basswood body, this popular material ensures balanced lows, lively mids and a crisp top-end, serving as the perfect foundation for the spanky-sounding single-coils.

6-SCREW VINTAGE STYLE TREMELO BRIDGE

The vintage-style tremolo is essentially unchanged from the original Stratocaster bridge. It's very well made and allows you to add smooth vibrato into your playing.
