FENDER SAYS
In the new American Series Stratocaster, we have incorporated several simple player-centric refinements into the Strat's timeless design. From the hand-rolled fingerboard edges to the three custom staggered pickups, to five-way switching and two-point synchronized tremolo, the idea is that excellence lies in details. Left handed model also available.
