General
The Fender Stratocaster is one of the world's most iconic guitar models. Since its introduction in 1954, it has become renowned for its versatility and sound. This left-handed Strat is part of Fender's American Pro series that replaces the American Standard series. It's a top-quality model that will provide years of playing pleasure to amateur musicians and professionals alike. It even comes with its own Elite Molded Hardshell case so that you can transport it safely from A to B.
American Pro Strat LH: neck
This Strat has a maple neck with a satin-gloss polyurethane finish which makes it smooth as well as fast. The Modern Deep C neck profile is comfortable in the hand allowing you to play for extended periods of time without any problem. The fretboard radius measures 9.5 inches and there are 22 narrow, tall frets that add to the excellent playability, intonation and tuning stability.
Pickups and sound
Master pickup designer Tim Shaw developed the V-Mod pickups especially for the American Pro series. Each pickup has its own unique mix of alnico magnets depending on its position on the guitar. The result is a wonderfullly-balanced sound with plenty of power. There's also a Treble Bleed Circuit which means that the high tones are retained even when the volume is turned down. Finally, you can add subtle vibrato effects thanks to the stable 2-point tremolo bridge.
