Overview

The Fender American Professional Stratocaster HSS draws from more than sixty years of innovation, inspiration and evolution to meet the demands of today's working player.

Fender's popular deep "C" neck sports smooth rolled fingerboard edges, a "Super-Natural" satin finish and a sculpted neck heel for a supremely comfortable feel and easy access to the upper register. V-Mod III Stratocaster single-coil pickups are more articulate than ever while retaining bell-like chime and warmth, and the V-Mod humbucker delivers powerful yet sensitive tones. A 2-point tremolo with a cold-rolled steel block increases sustain, clarity and high-end sparkle. Engineered for the working player, the ClassicGear radial bent-steel saddles deliver effortless intonation and action adjustments -- with recessed screws that stay out of your way, no matter how hard you play.
