General
Fender's American Performer Stratocaster HSS gives you a wide range of tones to go with its excellent playing comfort. This attractively-priced American model is made in Corona, California and follows on from the popular American Special series. It even comes with a deluxe gig bag included.
The American Performer Stratocaster HSS: Yosemite and DoubleTap
There's plenty of innovative technology going on underneath the alder body of this Strat. The newly-developed DoubleTap humbucker, for instance, can be split using the push/pull tone potentiometer for single-coil sounds. It's even been designed so that the volume remains the same in either setting. There are two Yosemite single-coil pickups on board as well that have a high output and a shellac coating to prevent problems with feedback. The Greasebucket Tone circuit gives your more control over the high frequencies too.
Optimal Playing Comfort
This version of the HSS Strat has a maple fretboard for a bright, clear sound. The maple neck has a modern C profile, a rounded 9.5-inch radius and 22 jumbo frets that all enhance this model's playing comfort. Finally, the ClassicGear machine heads ensure excellent tuning stability and have a lovely vintage look.
