Authentic Fender Vibe With a Twist
When you pick up the American Performer Timber Series Stratocaster, you're greeted with the familiar Fender vibe that's inspired countless players. The iconic body shape, vintage-inspired appointments and unmistakable Strat tone are all present. But this stylish model stands out with its specially selected sassafras tonewood body. Sassafras yields a focused midrange and tight low end reminiscent of sought-after swamp ash, giving you classic Strat tone with a distinctive twist.

Yosemite Pickups Unlock Expressive Tones
The American Performer Timber Series is loaded with a trio of Yosemite single-coil pickups designed for rich, expressive tone. Flat-staggered pole pieces increase output while a shellac coating allows the coil to breathe naturally for excellent dynamic response. Whether you're playing funk rhythms, percussive chord stabs or wailing leads, the Yosemite pickups translate your personal touch. A push-pull tone control adds the neck pickup to any pickup selector position, unlocking even more usable tones.

The Modern C-shaped maple neck sports a comfortable 9.5" radius rosewood fingerboard that's perfect for chord work or lead lines. Jumbo frets make string bends smooth and effortless.
