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!
