From Our Research Team:

Huge bang for the buck!

American-made quality at an amazing price! Fender's American Special Stratocaster® gives you many of the most popular features from past Strat® models at a price that's nearly unheard of for a made-in-America FENDER®. It all starts with an alder body for classic Strat sparkle, all wrapped up in a great looking gloss urethane finish. The FENDER® trademark maple neck is topped with a maple fingerboard for a little added spank, and jumbo frets make it easy to bend with passion with the American Special Stratocaster!





Be sure to cut through the mix, thanks to a trio of Fender's Texas Special™ single coils. Used together in any one of the five possible positions, the pickups give you classic Fender tones that have been with us since the dawn of the Strat®. But these pickups have a little something extra that sets the American Special Strat apart from previous Strat incarnations. A "Greasebucket" tone circuit and vintage-style tremolo round out the features on this beauty. If you're looking for an American-made Strat with unbeatable bang for the buck, it's the American Special Stratocaster!
