Fender Stratocaster

Fender Stratocater Guitars

The Fender Stratocaster is the quintessential guitar of Rock and Roll. Leo Fender designed the first Stratocaster in 1954, and completely changed the way electric guitars were made. The Strat has a sleek and contoured body style, making the guitar extremely comfortable to play, and giving it an iconic look that is still fresh today. From twangy to thicker mid-range tones, the Strat is capable of tackling a wide range of musical territory. From rock to jazz, blues or country, Strats have been played by some of the world's greatest guitar players such as Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn and hundreds more.

Strats for Every Sound, Style, and Soul — Grab Yours at AMS

Fender didn’t just make an electric guitar—they made the electric guitar. The Fender Stratocaster has been bending notes and breaking rules since 1954, with its unmistakable double-cut solid body, trademark vibrato bridge, and three single-coil pickups. From Hendrix melting faces at Woodstock to John Mayer finessing bluesy bends, the Strat has seen it all and done it better.

At American Musical Supply, we stock every flavor of Fender Strat. Looking for a smooth maple fingerboard for extra snap? Or maybe a rosewood board for a warmer touch? We've got it. Prefer a classic alder body, or are you after exotic tops that make a statement before you even plug in? Done. No matter what kind of Fender Strat fits your style, AMS makes it easy to get one in your hands fast.

Fender Stratocaster

Find Your Strat’s Perfect Voice

The Fender Stratocaster is known for its versatile, expressive tone, and that all comes down to the pickups. At American Musical Supply, you’ll find Strats loaded with a variety of pickup configurations, including: 

  • Triple Single-Coils (SSS) – The original Strat setup. Crisp, articulate, and dynamic. Perfect for clean blues, funk, country twang, and glassy lead tones.
  • HSS (Humbucker-Single-Single) – A hotter, more aggressive setup with a humbucker in the bridge for extra power, sustain, and chunk. It’s great for rock, hard blues, and high-gain solos.
  • HH (Dual Humbuckers) – This one ditches the single-coils altogether, replacing them with full-throttle humbuckers for thicker mids, heavier distortion, and extra sustain, ideal for hard rock, metal, and fusion players.

No matter what kind of pickup setup you’re after, AMS has the right Fender Strat for your sound.

Which Fender Stratocaster is Right for You?

Fender keeps the bones of the Stratocaster guitar classic, but they’ve evolved the lineup to suit every type of player — from working musicians to tone nerds chasing vintage perfection. At American Musical Supply, we carry every Fender Stratocaster model, so here’s a breakdown of what makes each one tick.

Player II Series Stratocaster – No-Nonsense, All Strat

This is where real Fender tone starts. The Player Stratocaster keeps things classic and clean — three crisp single coils, a modern C-shaped neck, and a 2-point trem for smooth bends and dives.

Vintera II Series Stratocaster – Like a Time Machine, But Cheaper

Want a Strat that feels like it stepped out of the ‘50s, ‘60s, or ‘70s? The Vintera II Series is Fender’s tribute to its own golden years, with period-accurate thick necks, old-school pickups, and vintage hardware.

American Professional II Stratocaster – Built for the Lifers

If you play a Stratocaster guitar for a living — or just play one like you do — the American Professional II is your guy. Fender refined everything: smoother trem action, sculpted neck heel for effortless high-fret runs, and those V-Mod II pickups that balance warmth, bite, and power.

American Ultra Stratocaster – Fender’s Most Advanced Strat

The American Ultra Stratocaster is Fender’s top-tier model, designed for speed, precision, and whisper-quiet pickups that won’t hum when you crank the gain. And the neck? A D-profile that’s built for fast hands, paired with a sculpted heel so nothing gets in your way. 

American Vintage II Stratocaster – The Real Deal, Just Not 60 Years Old

If you’ve ever wished you could walk into a music store in 1957 and buy a brand-new Strat, this is as close as you’ll get. The American Vintage II is Fender’s most accurate recreation of its legendary designs, with nitrocellulose finishes, period-correct pickups, and old-school hardware that will age and wear just like the originals.

Artist Signature Stratocasters – Legendary Tone in Your Hands

If you want a Strat built to legendary specs, Fender’s Artist Signature models deliver. From Hendrix’s reverse headstock model to Eric Clapton’s mid-boosted blues machine, each Signature Strat is fine-tuned to the exact preferences of the world’s most iconic guitarists. 

Squier Stratocasters – The Budget-Friendly Entry Point

Not ready to drop major cash on a Fender Strat? That’s why Squier exists. Whether you’re just starting out, need a reliable backup guitar, or want a solid modding platform, Squier Strats offer players a surprising amount of playability and quality at a fraction of the price.

The Fender American Ultra II: The Best Just Got Better

The American Ultra II is Fender’s most dialed-in, high-performance Stratocaster yet. The quartersawn maple neck with ultra-rolled edges feels broken in from day one, and the sculpted body contours and tapered neck heel make upper-fret runs effortless. Under the hood, Ultra II Noiseless™ pickups keep your tone crisp, dynamic, and hum-free, while the S-1™ switch unlocks even more tonal tricks.

The Stratocaster’s Legendary Vibrato Bridge

The Fender Stratocaster doesn’t just sound good; it moves. And that’s all thanks to its trademark vibrato bridge (often called the tremolo bridge, even though it technically creates vibrato).

At American Musical Supply, you’ll find Strats with a few different bridge setups:

  • Vintage-Style 6-Screw Tremolo – Found on classic-inspired Strats, this old-school setup delivers smooth, natural bends with a little extra tension and snap-back, perfect for surf rock, blues, and classic rock.
  • Modern 2-Point Tremolo – Fender’s updated system, featured on models like the Player and American Professional II Stratocasters, offers smoother motion, better tuning stability, and less friction for effortless warbles and dives.
  • Floyd Rose Locking Tremolo – Found on select Artist and high-performance Strats, this double-locking system lets you go full dive-bomb mode without your tuning taking a nosedive.

No matter which Stratocaster guitar you choose, the Strat trem is what makes it sing.

Frequently Asked Questions: Fender Stratocaster Guitars

Want to know more about Fender Stratocaster guitars before you buy? Check out our helpful FAQ for the answers to our most commonly asked questions. 

Can a Fender Stratocaster handle high-gain music like metal?

While the traditional single-coil Stratocaster thrives in clean and mid-gain settings, models with humbuckers (HSS or HH configurations) can handle heavier distortion and high-gain tones. If you’re looking for a metal-friendly Strat, options with Floyd Rose bridges, hotter pickups, or active electronics will get you there. 

Why do some Fender Stratocasters have different neck shapes?

Fender offers various neck profiles to suit different playing styles. A modern “C” shape is the most common, providing a comfortable grip for most hands. Vintage-inspired Strats may feature a thicker soft-V or U-shape neck, while performance models like the American Ultra use a D-profile for fast, effortless playability. 

What’s the difference between a Fender Stratocaster and a Telecaster?

While both are Fender icons, the Stratocaster has a double-cutaway body, three pickups, and a vibrato bridge, making it more versatile and fluid. The Telecaster, with its single-cut body and fixed bridge, delivers punchier, more direct tones, making it a favorite for country, blues, and indie rock. Read more about the differences between Stratocasters and Telecasters on the AMS Blog.
