Product Description

The Fender Stratocaster is the most popular electric guitar ever created! In production for more than 60 years, the Strat has remained largely unchanged both aesthetically and feature-wise. However, small refinements have been made over the years to improve the instrument in terms of its tones, quality, and playability.

The Fender Player Stratocaster HSS encompasses all of Fender's guitar-building experience — available at a price that's more accessible to a wider audience. Made in Mexico, these affordable Player Series models boast a number of updates to give players instruments with more versatility and elegance than ever before.

Key Features

  • Alder Body — Popular timber synonymous with Fender guitars. Offers a balanced tonal foundation for the pickups, with tight lows, bold mids and singing highs.
  • Modern "C" Maple Neck — Contemporary, rounded neck profile with moderate depth; featuring a 9.5"-radius fingerboard and 22 frets.
  • Satin-Finished Neck — Slippery and non-sticky for a fast, ultra-smooth feel.
  • Medium Jumbo Frets — Large, tall frets increase the distance between the strings and fingerboard for exceptional note control. Enable wide vibrato and pitch-perfect string bends.
  • HSS Player Series Pickups — Designed for authentic Fender tone with a bit of an edge, these Player Series pickups are crisp, articulate and modern.
  • 2-Point Synchronised Tremolo — Highly-responsive, with bent steel saddles enhancing sustain and boosting low-end warmth.
