Fender | The Vintera II Series
Choose From Among the Preferred Feature Sets Offered Throughout Fender’s Golden Years of Guitar and Bass Design!
In another homage to the brand's heritage, Fender’s new Vintera II series offers a fresh take on vintage Fender styles for the modern era—plus, it reintroduces rosewood as a fingerboard option on select models!
Made in Ensenada, a thriving city on the coast of Baja, Mexico—approximately 180 miles south of Fullerton, California, where Fender was born—all Vintera series instruments, including the new Vintera II models reimagine, consolidate, and replace the earlier Classic series models (including Classic Player, Road Worn, and Baja models) to bring Fender lovers the best that Fender’s Ensenada factory has to offer!
Featuring period-correct bodies, necks, and hardware, plus premium finishes and specially voiced pickups for each year, the American Vintage II series highlights a dozen instruments from benchmark years when certain models came together—all of which have since been recognized by players, collectors, and historians as pinnacles of Fender instrument production.
Outfitted with revoiced pickups specially designed to remain faithful to each era's tonal character while improving the overall sound and performance, maintaining the integrity of their respective periods, Vintera II series instruments combine the best features of decades past, resulting in inspiring and authentic testaments to Fender's history.
Vintera II Series Models — The Best of Fender’s First Three Decades
FENDER VINTERA II '50s
Fender’s first decade of guitar and bass manufacturing launched a significant period of innovation and creativity for Fender, during which the company produced several instruments that forever changed the way music would be heard, played, written, and recorded.
The Vintera II series includes four of these now-iconic '50s models and highlights some of the distinctive features of that era.
FENDER VINTERA II '60s
Fender would further refine and transform its instruments throughout its second decade of building electric guitars and basses, adapting its instrument designs to both musical styles and stylistic trends.
Boasting cool new colors inspired by the car craze and feature sets catered towards the needs of Fender guitar and bass players, the Vintera II series includes several models that demonstrate some of the recognizable design hallmarks of the '60s.
FENDER VINTERA II ‘70s
The '70s saw Fender responding to the trends of the times just as much as it had set the style in decades past, and players began to see it reflected in the instrument design aesthetic. But, although these features may have fallen out of fashion over the decades that followed, vintage original models with these feature sets developed their own cult of devotees.
Now, the big headstocks, wide-range humbuckers, and bold black headstock logos commonly found on Fender models of this era are as sought after as some of their predecessors, and today’s players can get them in the Vintera II ’70s models!
