Description
Among the American Standard Stratocaster guitars, the HSS Electric Guitar with Rosewood Fingerboard model is the hot rod of the bunch, with more output and warmth from its Custom Shop Fat '50s Single-Coil pickups and Diamondback humbucking pickup. The S-1 switch is removed to keep it simple, but don't worry - Fender kept key features such as the hand-rolled fingerboard edges and staggered tuning machines, and they added several new features, including an improved bridge with bent-steel saddles and a copper-infused high-mass block for increased resonance and sustain. Other features include tinted neck, rosewood fingerboard, satin-finished neck back, thinner finish undercoat that lets the body breathe and improves resonance, and Fender Tolex case.

    Ok so this guitar has become one of my favorite strats! I really love the maple fretboard I thinkg it looks pretty hot and feels so smooth. My only thing with this strat its that I wish it had higher output single coils but the Tex-Mex are alright. I was so surprise how this strat stays in tune I use 10s and do a lot of bending and stays in tune very well. Can't go wrong with the price. I added locking tuners and that's it. Overall this strat rocks!!
