collapse expand iconDescription

The Fender Limited-Edition HM Strat sports the same specs that helped the ’88-’92 models compete with the hot-rodded Strat impersonators of the day.

Built in the same Japanese factory as the original, the HM (Heavy Metal) Strat features a narrow C-shape neck with a unique 25.1" scale. The rosewood fretboard has a 17" radius and 24 Jumbo frets for bending ease.

A Floyd Rose Special recessed bridge keeps everything perfectly in-tune even after the deepest dive-bombs. The HSS pickup configuration delivers hot humbucker tones from the bridge; a 2-way toggle splits the humbucker for more traditional Strat sounds. The middle and neck position pickups are HM single coils.

Other features include Gotoh tuners, molded "F" logo knobs and black headcap with a highly stylized ’80s-era STRAT silk logo.
