The Greasebucket tone circuit on the bridge pickup tone control, which allows you to roll off highs without affecting the tone of your mids and lows.
The push-pull pot activates the neck pickup, letting you access neck/bridge and “all on” combinations with a simple finger flick.
Combining vintage style with a modern 18:1 gear ratio, the ClassicGear Tuning Machines offer better control over tuning.
FENDER SAYS
Born in Corona, California, the American Performer Stratocaster delivers the exceptional tone and feel you expect from an authentic Fender—with new enhancements that make it even more inspiring to play.
