2019 Fender American Professional HSS
This 2019 Fender American Professional Stratocaster HSS draws from more than sixty years of innovation, inspiration and evolution to meet the demands of today's working player. Fender's popular Deep C neck sports a rosewood fingerboard, narrow tall frets, and a satin urethane finish. Fender’s V-Mod Stratocaster single-coil pickups are more articulate than ever while retaining bell-like chime and warmth. In the bridge is Fender’s Shawbucker humbucker, perfect for lead tone while still balancing with the two single coil pickups. The upgraded 2-point tremolo with a cold-rolled steel block increases sustain, clarity and high-end sparkle. The saddles and string tree have been replaced with block saddles and a Graphtech tree, respectively.
