Tone. Tradition. Innovation.
Fender’s new American Deluxe Stratocaster HSS is for the demanding guitarist who wants to squeeze a little bit more out of their instrument. A compound radius fretboard allows exhilaratingly effortless string bending anywhere along the neck, and two new N3 noiseless pickups supercharge your sound with improved Stratocaster tones while the DH-1 humbucking bridge pickup is right there when you need to take everything up to 11 - and all minus the hum!
Reconfigured S-1 switching offers even more knockout tonal options. The all-new passing lane switch instantly routes your signal from any pickup position to the bridge position with the tone circuit bypassed, blasting overtones and volume straight into the Strat-osphere.
Other features include staggered locking tuners, LSR roller nut, two-point synchronized American Deluxe tremolo bridge with pop-in arm, and beveled neck heel.
