The Highway One series is upgraded for '06! Super-size frets, '70s styling, new alnico pickups in the neck and middle positions and new colors take this amazing guitar to the next level.
The new neck and middle position pickups on the Highway One Stratocaster HSS guitar produce a more round tone that can sound glassy and great with high gain. The thin nitrocellulose lacquer finish lets the body wood's natural tone shine through, making for one of the most exciting new instruments in the Fender family!
