Fender Standard Stratocaster HH RW Black

General

A genuine Fender Stratocaster without breaking the bank? That's a Mexican Fender instrument! This black Stratocaster hails from the land of tortillas and tequila yet has the same look and sound as its counterparts from the country that spawned root beer and burgers. There's one major difference between this Stratocaster and more conventional models, and that is that this one is equipped with two humbuckers. These pickups ensure a properly rugged sound, making this guitar perfect for rougher types of music. Your amplifier will sound deliciously distorted when driven by the tonal force of this Strat.

Fender Mexican Standard Stratocaster HH RW BLK: wood and tone

Like most Fenders, this Stratocaster has a body made of alder, resulting in an excellently balanced tone. As this guitar is equipped with humbuckers, its sound has quite a bit more body than that of its single-coil counterparts. Combined with the standard Fender freshness, the humbucker tones are perfect for the rugged side of music. However, this guitar is also excellently suited for jazz and blues music. This Strat's neck is made of maple and sports a rosewood fretboard.

Electronics and hardware

As we may expect from a Strat, this guitar also has a classic tremolo bridge that allows you to easily implement subtle tone bends into your playing. Two tone knobs subsequently allow you to adjust the tone to your liking and the 3-way pickup switch lets you select the desired pickup configuration. Naturally a volume control is also present, allowing for subtle tone alterations - just like on other guitars with passive electronics. The chrome-plated hardware is the cherry on top!
