Fender American Professional Classic Stratocaster HSS

A classic Fender® tonewood known for resonance, punch and clarity. Alder has a balanced and lively tone with beefy mids and a robust low-end.

Each instrument is available in signature Fender colors and faded classic finishes that recreate the well-loved patina of vintage guitars.

Based on Fender's Pure Vintage designs, Coastline '57 Stratocaster® pickups are slightly overwound to deliver enhanced Fender warmth, chime and punch. The Coastline™ humbucker adds another dimension with its full-bodied warmth and articulate response, perfect for high-gain tones while maintaining exceptional clarity.

The Modern "C"-shaped neck delivers a comfortable playing experience with its smooth, ergonomic profile. The 9.5”-radius fingerboard with medium jumbo frets provides fast fretting and easy playability.

Pure in form and function, the vintage-style synchronized tremolo provides classic vibrato. Staggered ClassicGear™ tuners combine classic Fender® looks with modern precision.

The uniquely engineered Greasebucket™ Tone System tames treble frequencies without sacrificing gain or adding unwanted bass, preserving carefully crafted sound. Unlike traditional tone controls, this sophisticated circuit maintains clarity and definition even when rolled back.
