COMMENTS
Replaces American Deluxe Stratocaster - First Series
Replaced by American Deluxe Ash Stratocaster - Third Series
American Deluxe Series Stratocasters built in 2004 will have a special 50th Anniversary commemorative neck plate.
American Deluxe Series Stratocasters built in 2006 will have a special 60th Anniversary commemorative medallion on the back of the headstock.
A few months after the S-1 switch upgrade was introduced on this guitar, the switching function changed on Position 3. with the S-1 switch down from: Middle Pickup in Series with Special Capacitor (No Tone Control), to the switching described above.
FENDER SAYS
The American Deluxe Ash Stratocaster guitar is the answer for players looking for a traditional ash body Fender guitar that “does it all.” The S-1 switching system and three Samarium Cobalt Noiseless Strat pickups make this guitar extremely versatile and provides an endless array of tones. The Ash Strat guitar also features a two-point synchronized tremolo with stainless steel saddles, and a modern “C”-shape maple neck with a choice of maple or rosewood fingerboard, abalone inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets.
