Fender American Deluxe HSS Stratocaster Electric Guitar with CaseThe Fender American Deluxe HSS Stratocaster delivers all the refined features found on the American Deluxe Strat, but brimming with beefy tone thanks to a Fender DH-1 humbucking pickup, the S-1 switching system and an LSR Roller Nut with locking machine heads.
The two Samarium Cobalt Noiseless pickups (neck and middle) are wound extra hot for proper balanced with the humbucking pickup. The amazing S-1 switching system lets you switch instantly from humbucking to single coil tones - just tap the switch hidden in the crown of the master volume knob. Includes hardshell case.

QUALITY: This guitar is made extremely well. The only issue I have is that the selector knob is a little loose, and comes off easily. However, not a major issue.
FEATURES: I like the humbuckler in the bridge as well as the S1 switching. Nice sound options.
EASE OF USE: Very easy. Nothing difficult about using this including the S1 switching.
VALUE: I think the value was great considering other alternatives and prices. Excellent quality from a well known guitar manufacturing company at a competitive price.
SOUND: Great sound. With humbuckler and S1 switching, many options to play various types of music.
STYLE: Blues / Rock
MUSIC EXPERIENCE: 15 years
OVERALL: Excellent guitar with the ability to play a wide array of music (i.e. blues, rock, funk, country, etc.). This one is a keeper to the end. This guitar is everthing it says it is and more. G | |

QUALITY: American made Fenders...what more can a person say?
FEATURES: I love humbuckers...but I replaced the Fender stock humbucker with a Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates. The things screams now! The neck feels hand rolled...it's so smooth! I love the maple necks!
EASE OF USE: Extremely easy and versatile...you can play anything on these puppies! Keep the nut lubricated with graphite if you're a tremolo freak and the thing will stay in tune almost as perfect as a guitar with a locking nut!
VALUE: Just over $1,000 for an American made Fender strat still seems like a steal to me!
SOUND: You can't beat that versatile tone of the stratocaster...so many configurations and ways to use the pickups and controls.
STYLE: Metal, Blues, Alternative

QUALITY: Excellent quality control at Fender. My guitar arrived in perfect condition.
FEATURES: I love the Strat feel but like the humbucker for the good solid tone.
SOUND: Great sound! Really hot pickups with the vintage Fender tone but with the DH1 humbucker it really rounds out my sound. Plus it is not heavy like a Les Paul.
STYLE: 70's rock & blues

QUALITY: Solid and well built. Only thing made in China is the case. This instrument is well balanced so you don't have to worry about a top heavy headstock pulling the neck down while playing. Finely engineered.
FEATURES: LSR nut and locking tuners. The humbucker is okay but with a bit of tone control I make it work. The Samarium Cobalt SCs are outstanding.
EASE OF USE: Smooth neck, stays in tune. Fretting is smooth as is the rosewood neck.
VALUE: Great value for an American made instrument. Forget the crap from Korea and Indonesia. Save your money and buy a real guitar. I think the price is right for the quality and features and, in many cases, outshines most of the boutique guitars I've owned in the past.
SOUND: Great tonal variety with the available S1 switch. The single coil pups are dead quiet but very sonic. | |
