The Fender Stratocaster guitar was designed in 1954 by Leo Fender to be an improved version of the Fender Telecaster. The Stratocaster features three pickups instead of two, providing a wider variety of tones. It also introduced an innovative tremolo system. The ergonomic body shape with curved edges made the Stratocaster more comfortable to play. These changes established the Stratocaster as one of the most popular electric guitar models ever made.
