Fender American Strat Stratocaster

The Fender American Strat with Maple Neck, 22 Frets and 3 American Strat S-Coil Pickups has the classic Strat design but also a number of simple refinements for added playability. Fender's most famous guitar, the strat, comes with over half a century of upgrades! The attention to detail is what made the American Fender Strat so iconic in the first place. And now you're getting even more. The timeless Strat design incorporates hand-rolled fingerboard edges, three staggered single-coil pickups, five-way switching and a two-point synchronized tremolo. But on top of this, the new updates include a beautiful non-veneered alder body; hum/single/hum pickup routing for more wood and consequently, more tone; highly detailed nut and fret work for ultimate tuning stability and playability and rolled edges on the newly shaped neck for smoother and faster playing. Play on a new Fender American Series Strat and discover a better feeling, better sounding guitar than ever before. The excellence is in the detail.

When you purchase you first American Strat

...Don't be suprised if it isn't set up to factory standards. It is natural for the guitar to alter slighty with changes in temperature and humidity. Fender American Stratocasters have numerous points of adjustment that will allow you to compensate for the changes in playing action that occur between final assembly at the Fender factory and you receiving the strat. Each American Strat comes with an owners manual giving details on adjustment, setup and maintenance, that will allow you to return the strat to it's optimum performance.

Tone Controls Fender American Strat

The tone control allows you to modify the Strat's tonal qualities. With the tone conrol in the full clockwise position the strat produces a brighter tone. Rotaing the knob counter clockwise and the strat's tone will mellow as the high frequencies are gradually filtered off.

Tremolo - Fender American Strat

The American strat tremolo is a floating fulcrum style tremolo with 2 large pivot posts. the pivots are V grooved and are mated to the knife edge slots that are cut into the the bridge bass plate. The thicker bass plate and steel spring block coupled with the weight-balanced stainless steel bridge saddles help to deliver increased sustain and an extremely well balanced tonal response throughout the strat's frequency range. When storing your strat make sure you do not lose the spring when you remove the strat's tremolo arm, place a bit of tape over the receptacle hole.

Truss Rod - Fender American Series

Each Fender strat is carefully adjusted at the Fender factory. the truss rod and string height are set for optimum action and playability with medium gauge strings. Under normal tension the strat neck should have a slight concave curvature, by creating a counteracting force the truss rod prevents the neck from bending excessively under the stress caused by the strings.

Warranty - Fender American Series Strat

Fender musical instruments warranties the American Strat free from all defects in materials and workmanship for as the strat is owned by the original purchaser except for pickups switches and jack sockets.
