From Our Research Team:Huge Bang for the BuckAmerican-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! Fender American Special Stratocaster Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:

What a great guitar for the price, With money being tight for most of us these days I must say it was a treat to find that Fender has given us something to feel better about . The guitar that I picked... read more [+] out looked very nice , I had worries that the materials used in this series would be less than good .Plays great sounds great feels nice and looks like a top notch instrument. I would highly recommend this guitar to anybody in the market .If you are like me it may take a few jam sessions to get the amp and guitar tones dialed in , the texas special pickups sound great clean and gritty but it took me a few days to get that heavier sound I wanted. The best thing about this purchase was the people at Sweetwater, it was a surprise to find that they actually set their guitars up before they ship them mine arrived set up perfect right out of the box. A quick tune of the strings and I put it through its paces.I am waiting for the HSS 3-tone Sunburst to get in stock so I can buy one of them as well.My thanks to the staff at Sweetwater I think that I have found my new guitar shop and will do the bulk of my business with them . close [-]

My C.A.R American Special is so magnificent it plays by itself.March 13, 2011 Music Background: aspiring pro muso after i complete my 1st big home recording project, fairly advanced hobbyist, songwriter etc aint touched my mexican made roadhouse or sky blue standard with gold lace sensor neck & middle pups and red lace sensor @ bridge... read more [+] & TBX pot nor my satch 1990 japanese built ibanez or SG since i got it. bend up as far as you like and have no apprehension of string-snap. fastest best neck ever.Plays anything from blues country rock metal from lovely & rapturous enchantingly sweet tones to rougher than a rolling fight to the finish over gravel. plug it into anything, a hot rod, a marshall stack, a g-dec 3, a roland cube, a line 6 spider jam etc etc & have supreme confidence of perfect playability. This guitar has a work ethic for tough time$ as money gets tighter than a mouse's ear with superglue in it. dont be a never-do-well. Surely it'll be money well spent if ya's invest in it. i think i'll name it "Tommy" after Pete Townshend's Pinball Wiz.as it plays by intuition too:-) close [-] inSync Review
