Fender American Performer Stratocaster (Honey Burst)

Overview of Fender American Performer Stratocaster (Honey Burst)

Born in Corona, California, the American Performer Stratocaster delivers the exceptional tone and feel you expect from an authentic Fender - with new enhancements that make it even more inspiring to play.

The American Performer Stratocaster includes the Yosemite(TM) single-coil pickups, designed for rich, expressive tones. With flat-staggered pole pieces to increase output and a shellac coating that lets the coil breathe while controlling feedback, Yosemite pickups produce dynamic sounds ideal for any musical situation.

The American Performer Stratocaster also features Greasebucket(TM) tone circuitry and a push-pull tone control which adds the neck pickup in any switch position, unlocking new, musically useful tones. The "Modern C"-shaped neck sports a 9.5"-radius fingerboard that's comfortable for almost any playing style, along with 22 jumbo frets for effortless and accurate bending.
