Fender American Special Stratocaster HSS
Introducing the American Special Series Stratocaster HSS from Fender - an American made guitar at a price within your reach!
Top build quality
Featuring a proper Alder body with gloss urethane finish, two glorious sounding Texas Special Single Coil pickups and an Atomic Humbucking Bridge pickup, a 9.5” radius maple neck, jumbo frets and a Vintage-Style Synchronized Tremolo, the American Special Series Strat is versatile and built to top standards.
Texas Special and Atomic Humbucking Pickups
The two Texas Special single coil Neck and Mid pickups deliver lots of midrange punch whilst still offering spanky treble and tight bass thanks to the overwound Alnico V magnets. The Atomic Humbucker offers plenty of power to cut through and enough gain to achieve fat distorted tones. The 70’s style jumbo headstock is a neat addition and makes the guitar stand out from the rest.
A guitar for the times
With excellent spec, long lasting construction and at an economic price, the Fender American Special Stratocaster is definitely, in Fender's words, a 'guitar for the times'.
