Replaced by Highway One Stratocaster - Second Series
FENDER SAYS
Highway One Series guitars give you everything you need, nothing you don’t! Their special low-gloss, satin lacquer finish allows the wood to “breathe” better, providing a warm, full tone with added sustain and clarity. Not unlike rare vintage instruments, Highway One Series guitars’ neck finish feels immediately smooth and comfortable, like your favorite worn baseball glove. All that, and they look great too! Hand-made in Corona, Calif.
The Highway One Stratocaster is highlighted with its own unique Highway One finish – a high resonance, low gloss, satin lacquer topcoat that lets the tone ring out of the alder body and sustain for days. The Highway One Stratocaster guitar features three classic single-coil pickups with a synchronized tremolo and is available with a maple or rosewood fingerboard.
