The Fender® Stratocaster® was light years ahead of its contemporaries when it was introduced in 1954, instantly becoming a timeless classic with its ergonomically contoured double-cutaway body, versatile triple-pickup configuration and inventive spring-loaded tremolo bridge.
Built to accompany players on their formative musical adventures, the Fender Standard Stratocaster HSS delivers the approachable playability and inspiring tone that made Fender an icon of rock & roll. Its Fender Standard ceramic humbucking and single-coil Stratocaster pickups provide high-output, authentic Fender tone and versatile performance across a wide range of musical styles.
The poplar body features a gloss finish, while the maple neck has a comfortable “Modern C”-shaped profile and satin finish on the back for a smooth feel. The 9.5"-radius fingerboard contributes to the inviting playing experience. A modern 2-point synchronized tremolo bridge with block steel saddles in a satin chrome finish completes the setup.
