Fender American Performer Stratocaster HSS 2023 Gloss Black Electric Guitar

This is a Fender American Performer Stratocaster HSS electric guitar in Gloss Black finish. Made in the USA in 2023, this guitar consists of an Alder body, Maple neck, and a 22 Jumbo fret Maple fingerboard. Other appointments include Fender ClassicGear tuning machines, a 6-Saddle Vintage-Style Synchronized Tremolo as well as two string trees. Two Yosemite Single Coil pickups, and a Double Tap Humbucker, these pickups are wired to a master volume, tone 1, tone 2 (push/pull split-coil), and a 5-way pickup selector.

The Maple neck of this guitar features a Modern ‘C’ profile and satin finish to the rear. This all adds up to a sophisticated playing experience that will suit many styles, feeling articulate, smooth and precise. The Rosewood fretboard provides a durable and smooth playing surface, with the 9.5” radius working in conjunction with the Jumbo frets to produce an authentically vintage playing experience, allowing for vibrato techniques and complex chords

to be played with ease.

The Fender Yosemite single coil pickups in neck and middle positions are open and clear sounding, with a fairly modern voicing. The Double Tap humbucker in bridge position adds great versatility, particularly with a coil split that pairs very well with the Yosemite pickups, giving you the best of both worlds while still keeping a coherent overall tone. The neck and middle pickup share the first tone pot, with the bridge pickup using the rear, with the Grease-bucket tone circuit, allowing for a more natural sounding tone roll-off.
