From Our Research Team:

This Strat is as Beautiful as it is Playable

You've never seen a Stratocaster® quite like the FENDER® Select Stratocaster®. This solidbody electric guitar is what Strat® aficionados have been hoping for. You get premium tonewoods, high-end appointments, and custom electronics, all wrapped up into a highly-collectible - and playable - Stratocaster design. It's the Strat that helped form the sound of modern music, now built as much for looks as it is for tone and feel. From the rich sound to the smooth playability, the Fender Select Stratocaster is in a class all its own.



Fender Select Stratocaster Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Premium choice of woods
  • Custom electronics
  • The Select neck

Premium choice of woods
Fender held nothing back when designing the Select Stratocaster. In fact, we've never seen a Strat like this at Sweetwater before. It's got a flame maple top, highlighted by a hand-stained finish. It's got a flame maple neck too, quartersawn for extreme strength. Even the flame maple fretboard has an extra dose of class you won't find on many guitars. And while these details look amazing, they all add to the incredibly rich tone of the Select Stratocaster.

Custom electronics
The Fender Select Strat's three single-coil pickups were wound and voiced specifically for the Select series. You won't find these pickups anywhere else. They're slightly overwound, for a lively output that's rich and vibrant - they're a perfect match for getting classic Strat tones from virtually any amplifier.

The Select neck
The neck is one of the most important aspects of any instrument, which is why the Fender Select Stratocaster features a quartersawn maple neck. Besides looking good, the straight grain of quartersawn necks is about 50% more stable than plain-sawn necks, and less likely to warp, twist or shrink. You'll also love the playability and feel of the Select Strat's contoured heel when you're playing higher up the fretboard. Down low, your fretting hand will appreciate the 9.5" radius that keeps things nice and comfortable for natural, relaxed arpeggio work.

Fender Select Stratocaster Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
  • Classic Stratocaster design with premium tonewoods, custom electronics, and a quartersawn neck for a top-shelf playing experience
  • Flame maple top with a hand-stained finish for a collectible look
  • Custom-voiced single-coil pickups, developed exclusively for the Select series
  • Quartersawn maple neck enhances rigidity and resonance
  • Custom G&G hardshell case included

Whether you buy for looks, feel, or tone, the Fender Select Stratocaster will exceed your expectations!
