July 18, 2003

(Click for a close-up)

The new American Series Strat HSS is the answer for players looking for a bridge position humbucking pickup but still want that classic Fender single coil sound as well. The new "S-1 Switch" makes this guitar extremely versatile and gives the player an endless array of pickup configurations.

With the switch engaged, players open up their Stratocaster to four new pickup combination possibilities - for a total of nine combinations - previously unavailable with Fender's 5-way selector switch. The result is an entirely new palette of tones for players.

Designed in Scottsdale, AZ., USA. Made in Corona.
