SP Luthier Notes: Fret Dress and Setup

From Fender

For discerning guitarists, the Vintage Hot Rod '60s Stratocaster is the ideal combination of original-era style and present-day power and performance. Classic and contemporary at the same time, it delivers a potent combination of authentic vintage design straight from the 1960s and hot-rodded modern mods demanded by today's guitarists, such as a compound-radius fingerboard and special pickups and circuitry. All together, it's a remarkable performer that gives you the best Strat® sound, style and performance of yesterday and today.
