This flagship entry in the Fender legend and their refreshed American Professional series loads up outstanding musical features found throughout the series while making a name for itself among its American Professional series brethren and within the greater Stratocaster story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fender American Professional Stratocaster HSS takes on an impressive status in the American Professional series. Classically \"Fender\" features found throughout blend with the series' fresh innovations to bring in players both experienced and new with modern sensibilities at the helm. Everything here begins – as so many great Strats before it have – with a double-cutaway body made from alder. This timeless Fender tonewood acts as an exceptional base from which the rest of the musical experience can blossom. A gloss finish wraps this iconic body to stand out onstage with a cool Dark Night color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNearly as iconic as a double-cutaway alder body, this American Professional model brings on a maple neck in a Deep \"C\" profile. This slick \"C\" facilitates smooth moves from lower to higher registers along with Fender's \"Super-Natural\" satin finish. Mirroring the neck's comfortable feel in the palm with one on the fingertips, a rosewood fingerboard appears with rolled edges. Supremely smooth when playing at every register, the Strat's sculpted neck heel presents clear access to higher frets for soloing. Twenty-two Narrow Tall frets offer articulation and comfort in equal measure while a modern 9.5\" fingerboard radius keeps power chords and note bends equally easy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSonically, this American Professional Stratocaster comes alive with a classic electronics setup. Two V-Mod III Stratocaster single-coil pickups match with a V-Mod III humbucker in the bridge to break the mold with bold humbucking tones. This whole setup is sculpted through the American Professional's ClassicGear Precision potentiometers. Specifically tuned for close tonal shaping and consistent control, these pots elevate tonal shaping and playability for your classic Strat single-coil and humbucking experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis American Professional Strat HSS's musical experience is enhanced by a selection of quality hardware pieces. For one, this Strat is loaded with an upgraded two-point tremolo bridge at the base of the 25.5\" scale with a cold-rolled steel block and new ClassicGear Radial bent-steel saddles. Made for stability and accuracy in intonation in vibrato bends with recessed screws, these upgrades bolster the playability of your usual tremolo bridge. Toward the headstock, a bone nut and cast\/sealed staggered tuning machines keep stringing easy and intonation sturdy. The American Professional Stratocaster HSS travels with an included deluxe molded hardshell case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoised to take off in the American Professional series, the Stratocaster HSS has an endless black horizon in front of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- Highlight --\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGloss-finished double-cutaway alder solidbody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSatin-finished maple neck in Deep \"C\" profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosewood fingerboard with rolled edges and twenty-two Narrow Tall frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo Fender V-Mod III single-coil pickups and one V-Mod III humbucker pickup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassicGear Precision potentiometers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBone nut and standard cast staggered tuning machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-point synchronized tremolo bridge with ClassicGear Radial bent-steel saddles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFender Deluxe molded hardshell case included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Fender","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55972789125288,"sku":"0111120761","price":1849.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1210\/3886\/files\/0111120761-fender-american-professional-stratocaster-hss-guitar-rosewood-dark-night-1.png?v=1789399303","url":"https:\/\/www.russomusic.com\/products\/fender-american-professional-stratocaster-hss-guitar-rosewood-dark-night","provider":"Russo Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
