PRELOVED FENDER Noventa Stratocaster - Surf Green
Preloved condition.
The Fender Noventa Stratocaster is one of the more unusual Strat-style models Fender has produced in recent years. Instead of the traditional three-pickup layout and tremolo, the Noventa strips things back to two high-output Noventa single-coil pickups, a simple master volume and tone setup, and a hardtail bridge.
Finished in Surf Green with a maple fingerboard, this Mexican-made Noventa Strat has a clean, modern look while still keeping plenty of classic Fender DNA. The result is a guitar that feels familiar in the hands but sounds broader, punchier and more aggressive than a standard Stratocaster.
Two Noventa Single-Coil Pickups
The Noventa pickups are voiced for more output, stronger mids and a fuller low end than a traditional Strat single-coil. They can still clean up nicely, but they have enough bite and body for rock, garage, alternative, punk and heavier styles without needing a humbucker.
Simple, Direct Controls
The electronics are deliberately straightforward: Master Volume, Master Tone and a 3-way blade switch. That gives you bridge, both pickups together, or neck, without any extra switching to get in the way.
Hardtail Stratocaster Bridge
Instead of a tremolo system, the Noventa Stratocaster uses a 6-saddle vintage-style string-through-body hardtail bridge. That gives the guitar a solid, direct feel under the picking hand and removes the setup and tuning variables that come with a floating tremolo.
Modern C Maple Neck
The maple neck has Fender’s familiar Modern C profile, paired with a 9.5" radius maple fingerboard and 21 medium jumbo frets. It is a comfortable, easy-playing combination that sits between vintage-style and fully modern Fender necks.

Who Is It For?
This is a great fit for players who like the ergonomics and scale length of a Stratocaster but want something thicker, simpler and more aggressive than the usual three-single-coil setup. It suits rock, indie, alternative, garage, punk and blues particularly well.
Our Take
The Noventa Stratocaster is cool because it does not try to be a traditional Strat. The hardtail bridge, two-pickup layout and beefier Noventa pickups give it a more direct personality, while the Surf Green finish and maple board keep it unmistakably Fender.
