From Our Catalog
The American Deluxe Strat HSS delivers all the refined features found on the American Deluxe Strat, but brimming with beefy tone thanks to a Fender DH-1 humbucking pickup, the S-1 switching system, and an LSR Roller Nut with locking machine heads. The two Samarium Cobalt Noiseless pickups (neck and middle) are wound extra hot for proper balanced with the humbucking pickup. The amazing S-1 switching system lets you switch instantly from humbucking to single coil tones - just tap the switch hidden in the crown of the master volume knob. Includes hardshell case.

Founded in 1946, Fender Musical Instruments Corporation has been an American icon for over 50 years. In that time, Fender's contribution to the evolving sound of contemporary music has been global and continuous. By introducing the first commercially viable solidbody electric guitar, the first electric bass and countless classic amplifiers, Fender musical instruments have left their mark on jazz, blues, country, rock and many other styles of popular music.

"Can't be beat"
Feature:
S1 switch is great - I think it gives you nine possible combos on the pickups(first is the same whether switch is up or down). So many features that I don't think you can get anything else that would make sense. I have the QMT version - just beautiful.

Quality:
Not a blemish on the entire guitar and I've looked it over. The raise '4th' pickup is normal. The 'noiseless' pickups seem to have it - every one I looked at in the store and the one I bought has it (and it's mentioned on all the sites). Don't worry about it.

Value:
It's not cheap - but worth every penny. Played this guitar for strangers in the store and it outshined everything else (playing both rock and blues) in it's price category. Sure - buy a Gibson for twice as much and you'll get better but for value - can't be beat.

Desirability:
I had to have it - I now own.

Sound:
Great sounding guitar - true Strat sound as you would expect and sustain lasts forever once it's set up.

Support:
Haven't had to contact. Heard they are sometimes difficult to get ahold of but I haven't tried. Only scoring a 9 as I hate to bring down the score when the guitar is so great.

Overall:
Best value and greatest looks out there, IMHO. I got the QMT finish - no pick guard to distract on the face. Maybe too nice to gig with every night but for that weekend job, it fits great.

"Wow, I'm not worthy...."
Feature:
I love the roller nut, the locking tuners, the trem. It's just a very easy guitar to deal with. I have 7 others and this immediately became my favorite.

Quality:
Really nice, but of course you pay for it.

Value:
Sure it could be cheaper, but then it would probably feel cheaper.

Sound:
Sounds great. Unfortunately I'm a noob so can only scratch the surface of what this guitar can do.

Ease of Use:
Great neck, good setup.

Support:
NA

Overall:
If I ever even THINK of parting with this guitar someone slap me. I'll probably take it to the grave with me. I got the Montego black and wasn't too crazy about the gold pickguard so went with a white 3-ply. I like it much better, but I suppose a lot of people would like the gold better. It was the only mod I made, or will ever make.
