Fender Stratocaster
Electric guitar
Introduced by Fender in 1954, the Stratocaster is one of the most influential and widely imitated electric guitars ever made. Its contoured double-cutaway solid body, bolt-on maple neck, three single-coil pickups with a five-way selector, and synchronized vibrato bridge produce a bright, articulate voice that has shaped rock, blues, pop, surf, and country. Players from Buddy Holly and Jimi Hendrix to Eric Clapton and David Gilmour built signature tones on it, and the design has anchored Fender's line for seven decades.

Fender Jazz Bass
Electric bass
Launched in 1960 as a more refined companion to the Precision Bass, the Jazz Bass uses a slim, offset body, a narrow tapered neck, and two single-coil pickups. The result is a punchy, growling tone with a wide range of blended sounds that made it a studio and stage standard across countless genres.

Fender Precision Bass
Electric bass
Introduced in 1951, the Precision Bass was the first mass-produced electric bass guitar and effectively defined the instrument. Its fretted neck let players fret notes precisely, and the split single-coil pickup adopted in 1957 gives the deep, punchy tone that anchors recordings across nearly every popular genre.
