Full-throttle Stratocaster That’s Ready to Rock

Boasting vintage good looks, modern playability, and powerful tone, the Fender Noventa is a formidable entry into the Stratocaster’s lauded lineage. Classic tonewoods in the form of an alder body and maple neck give you that familiar Fender feel, with a modern “C” profile and maple fingerboard making fast and accurate playing a breeze. The two MP-90 pickups are capable of everything from crystal cleans to crunch and beyond, switchable via a 3-way blade and shapeable via the volume and tone knobs. Its unmistakable appearance is accented with a through-body hardtail bridge and vintage tuners, improving tuning stability and intonation. If you’re looking for a top-quality Strat that bridges the gap between vintage and modern, grab the Noventa, plug in, and get playing — it will be love at first strum.

Timeless Strat design made for today’s players

When crafting a tried-and-true Stratocaster, Fender’s thorough attention to detail and quality necessitates some requirements. Needless to say, the Noventa proudly ticks all the boxes. Alder bodies and Fender have gone hand in hand for decades, imbuing a full-bodied tone with great sustain and a solid feel. You’ll love the bright, snappy sound of the maple neck, with its comfortable modern “C” profile and 9.5-inch radius maple fingerboard blending classic and contemporary vibes into a guitar that is all Fender.

Double-pickup design unlocks a spectrum of sound

Sweetwater guitarists are thoroughly impressed with the tonal output of the Noventa’s two Fender MP-90 pickups. As expected, the traditional chime and clarity of a single-coil pickup are easily achieved. Push the MP-90s to their limit, and you’ll be treated to a thick, aggressive tone that's complete with musical lows, beefy mids, and growling highs. The Noventa’s volume and tone knobs react exceptionally well, and the 3-way blade makes finding your perfect sound easier than ever.

Vintage vibe with modern appeal

Over a half-century of players can’t be wrong: the look, feel, and sound of a Stratocaster are timeless. The Noventa takes everything extraordinary from a vintage Strat and accents it with a through-body hardtail bridge and vintage tuners, adding substantial tuning stability and excellent response. Whether you're a Strat devotee or a fresh Fender player, the Noventa is perfect for guitarists of all ages and styles.

Fender Noventa Stratocaster Features:

  • Alder body adds thick tone and great sustain
  • Snappy maple neck with comfortable modern “C” profile
  • Fast-playing maple fingerboard with 9.5-inch radius
  • 2 MP-90 pickups yield impressive tonal variety
  • Excellent tuning stability and response courtesy of hardtail bridge and vintage tuners
  • Volume and tone knobs along with 3-way blade let you shape your sound with ease
