You can't reinvent the classics, but you sure can tweak them to make them better! The Fender American Standard Stratocaster HSS has been re-specced for the 21st Century. Now featuring upgraded pickups, the American Standard series has Custom Shop Fat 50s single coils in addition to the biting humbucker making this one of the most versatile Strats in terms of tone.
