Since the introduction of the Ultra series in 1989, ebony was selected as a fretboard material on some models. The primary reason for the switch to rosewood was to meet increased demand, as one piece maple necks required more work to manufacture and more work to finish. In 1969, after a ten year absence, the one-piece maple neck was again made available as an option. The rosewood fretboard over maple neck remained as the other neck option. However, a maple neck with a glued-on maple fretboard was offered as an option in 1967. The one-piece maple neck was discontinued in 1959. However, by 1965, George Harrison and John Lennon of the Beatles both acquired Stratocasters at about the time of the Rubber Soul recording sessions. So distinctive was the Hank Marvin sound that many musicians - including the Beatles - initially deliberately avoided the Stratocaster and chose other marques. In the early 1960s, the instrument was also championed by Hank Marvin - guitarist of the Shadows, a band which originally backed Cliff Richard and then produced instrumentals of its own. Dick Dale is a prominent Stratocaster player who also collaborated with Leo Fender in developing the Fender Showman amplifier. The Stratocaster has been widely copied as a result, the term 'Strat' is often used generically when referring to any guitar that has the same general features as the original, regardless of manufacturer.ДЇrom 1959 to 1967, the Stratocaster was refitted with a rosewood fretboard, as well as color choices other than sunburst, including a variety of colorful car-like paint jobs that appealed to the nascent surfer and hot-rod culture, pioneered by such bands as the Surfaris, the Ventures and the Beach Boys. The design of the Stratocaster has transcended the field of music to rank among the classic industrial designs of all time examples have been exhibited at major museums around the world. Along with the Gibson Les Paul, Gibson SG, and the Fender Telecaster, it is one of the most common and enduring models of electric guitar in the world. The Stratocaster has been used by many leading guitarists, and thus can be heard on many historic recordings. The Fender Stratocaster, often referred to as a Strat, is a model of the electric guitar designed by George Fullerton, Leo Fender and Freddie Tavares in 1954, and manufactured continuously to the present.
