Fender American Standard Stratocaster HSS Electric Guitar with CaseFender American Standard Stratocaster HSS Electric Guitar is definitely the hot rod of the new American series!
The American Standard Strat boasts more output and warmth thanks to its Neck and Middle positioned Tex Mex single-coil pickups and Diamondback humbucking pickup located at the bridge. The S-1 switch, found on other models, is removed to keep it simple, but Fender kept key features such as the hand-rolled fingerboard edges and staggered tuning machines.

- Neck treatment tinted for a richer presentation
- Maple or Rosewood fingerboard buffed to a high gloss
