American Vintage ReIssue (aka AVRI) mostly 62 specs, 1999 to 2012
There have also been limited edition ‘thin skin’ versions of each these runs too.
They all have different specs and finishes, but AFAIK they’re all some kind of nitro.
I already had my 62 AVRI and nearly pulled the trigger on a 59 American Vintage strat.
I am fortunate to have instruments from either side of the 2012/13 divide. On the examples I have handled, the claims for more extensive research and greater attention to detail are borne out.
Good stuff. Cheers
Mine is this exact model

Highly recommend it - I put a set of BK Veneer boards in there.
Lovely guitar.
If you're like me and you quite fancy a "proper" Fender strat but you want a colour thats not sunburst (ugh) or black (pass the slippers grandad) there are so few options. It's really annoying being forced "up" the ranges to get interesting colours when the whole point of the strat and tele was to mass produce guitars - which should make it easier to produce some interesting ones!
I know what you mean. One of my favourite colours from Fender is Sherwood green but you see so few examples of any guitars in this colour
Pretty much my best Strat is a MIJ 54 (I think) Reissue from the early 90s. But the prices for those are going up sharply as well.
