The new pickups on the Highway One Stratocaster 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! Learn More...

"Perfect for professional playing."

Feature:
It's a strat. It has a whammy bar which I don' really use on this guitar. But it works fine. 70's headstock is really nice. I love the look.

Quality:
I have been very impressed with the quality of this instrument. Make at the new facilities in Mexico. The quality is wonderful. No flaws in the wood or finish. All components are correct and clean. Feels great and sounds awesome. No mods needed. I have no problems relying on this. I play professionally for a living. Not as a night job. I've had it for 6 months. I love it.

Value:
I'd buy another in a flash!

Desirability:
Feels great. Looks great. Sounds great. It performs and is very enjoyable to play.

Sound:
Exactly what I was looking for. Classic Fender sound. Clean changes between pickups, no unwanted noise.

Support:
So far I haven't used it. That's because it's a great instrument.

Overall:
I intend to alternate this with my PRS and L-5. These should last the rest of my career.
