American Professional Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker MN Antique Olive
Electric guitar with two V-Mod single coils, a Shawbucker and 2-point tremolo, including Fender case
The Fender American Professional Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker Maple Electric Guitar Antique Olive is from the new 2017 American Professional Stratocaster range. As one of the world's most popular guitars, the Stratocaster has delivered a natural and versatile performance since its inception in 1954. Capable of producing unique and exceptional tones, this new range represents an evolution of the authentic original model. Capable of powering music movements from electric blues to EDM, and everything in-between, these HSS Strats are ready for you to enhance your creativity and express yourself in new ways.
Developed by Tim Shaw, the new V-Mod single-coil pickups are voiced specifically for each position, mixing alnico magnet types to produce powerful, nuanced tones with original Fender sonic DNA. Two of these single coil pickups are joined by a Shawbucker humbucking bridge pickup. The new treble-bleed tone circuit helps you retain high end clarity when adjusting the volume controls, so your tone can shine. The new modern “Deep C”-shaped neck profile enables a comfortable fit, whilst narrow-tall frets make it easy to bend strings accurately and play perfectly intonated chords.

Fender American Professional Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker MN Antique Olive
10/10 guitar, the HSS Shawbuckers sound amazing, but inspect carefully on order, when mine was shipped it had a chip underneath the pick guard which I didn't realise was there until after the 30 day refund so this company refused to help me.
