COMMENTS
Replaced by Standard Roland Ready Stratocaster (Upgrade)
A built-in Roland GK-2A pickup system that can drive peripherals directly from the guitar’s onboard controls
FENDER SAYS
The Roland-ready Strat guitar has all the features of the Standard Stratocaster: fast action maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard, comfort-contoured alder body, three single-coil pickups, synchronized tremolo, with the addition of a built-in Roland GK-2A pickup system – which allows you to drive peripherals directly from the guitar’s on-board controls.
