Product Description

Fender's American Deluxe Stratocaste HSS is for guitarists who want a little more from their instruments. A compound radius fretboard allows simple string bending anywhere on the neck, and two N3 Noiseless(tm) pickups provide improved Stratocaster tones while the DH-1 humbucking bridge pickup has more output for fatter lead tones all with no hum. Reconfigured S-1(tm) switching offers other distinctive tonal options. The switch instantly sends your signal from any pickup position to the bridge position with the tone circuit bypassed, giving you clearer overtones and a little more volume. Other features include staggered locking tuners, LSR roller nut, two-point synchronized American Deluxe tremolo bridge with pop-in arm, and beveled neck heel. The compound radius fretboard on this version of the Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster HSS is built from Maple for slightly brighter sound and faster action. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Fender products.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (6 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Fender Craftsmanship at its finest"
Sound: Sound quality is awesome. The noisless pickups are completely noiseless even with the gain turned way up. It's so nice to no longer hear tons of hum. The S1 switching allows for tons of different tones out of this guitar. I love this guitar for many styles - blues, heavy distored rock, this thing even does metal pretty damn good. It's got a great sparkly clean tone too. Bottom line: The tones you get out if this guitar are top-notch. Feature: The features of this guitar is the reason why I purchased it over the Regular (non delxue) Fender HSS. For about $550 more dollars you get locking tuners, lsr roller nut, pop in tremolo arm, N3 noisless pickups, the Atomic humbucker instead of the Diamondback, and S1 switching system. (Buy those things separately, we're talking much more than $550, especially considering installation costs) Oh, and not to mention the beautiful finishes.(I got the olympic pearl maple fretboard). The roller nut and locking tuners are great, you can whammy the hell out of this guitar it stays in tune. Ease of Use: I will always say that Fender Guitars are the easiest and most comforatble guitars to play. Bending strings is very easy and holding nice bend vibratos is much easier than other guitars I've played. The only learning curve with this guitar is all the different combinations you can get using the S1 switching system. If you want more simplicity just don't click the S1 button and you never need to use it. Quality: Fender craftmanship is top notch. The finish is amazing. The maple fretboard is fast and sleek. Value: If you're looking for a higher end guitar on the price scale, you should seriously consider this guitar. I say the value is a 10 because I know this guitar will last a lifetime. Manufacturer Support: I have not had to deal with Fender. The Wow Factor: Fender Olympic Peal w/ Maple Fretboard - Enough Said I would like to say I bought this guitar from Zzounds using the pay as you play (Which is the best thing in the world). I ordered it on a Friday and it was at my house by Monday. Great service Zzounds! Overall: I expect to be satisfied with this guitar for the rest of my life. It's my favore it new toy.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "My New Favorite"
Overall: I have 16 guitars counting this one. Carvin, Fender, Les Paul, Godin (Multiac) and Cordoba. The Fender American Deluxe HSS bests them all. With the N3's i can finally set to 10 and still get a CLEAN sound. I have tried to dirty it up by standing directly in front of an electric fan, which produces noise with all of my other electrics. With this baby I hear no interference. In my 38 years since picking up the guitar, I have not owned or heard it's equal.
Style of Music: "NO" Hip-Hop, Country...Everything else is cool!

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!
