Model: Stratocaster Highway One


Fender Highway One Stratocaster in Black nitro cellulose Satin, includes a hard case as pictured and I will also include a new 3 ply black scratch plate, knobs and pickup covers that I bought for this guitar.If you like your guitars pristine then a USA Highway One is not for you, this is a players guitar and the finish does mark and wear easily but gives it loads of character and real patina the more it gets played. If your looking for a USA Strat that sounds great but will naturally become roadworn then keep on reading.You can have a USA strat for the price of a mexican or MIJ offering.Its a lovely guitar and a reluctant sale but something has to give way...Heres some sales blurb… Buy a Fender Highway One Strat and you get an American made Strat, without the American-made price tag! How do Fender do this? The basic construction of the Highway One guitar is the same as on the more expensive "American Standard Series", but Fender have made a few cost savings.There is no hard case with a Highway One, although you do get a decent gig bag instead. You don't get the hand rolled edges on the fret board, but you do get a cool looking '70s style headstock. The Fender Highway One series guitars are still made from solid alder and play and sound just great.Here's what Fender say about the Highway One StratocasterThe Highway One Stratocaster guitar features an alder body, modern C-shaped maple neck with rosewood or maple fingerboard and 22 jumbo frets. Other features include three hot single-coil pickups with alnico 3 magnets (middle pickup is reverse wound/reverse polarity), vintage-style synchronized tremolo system, Greasebucket tone circuit and satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish.General SpecificationsModel Name: Highway One StratocasterSeries: Highway OneAvailable Colours (Part Number)3-Color Sunburst (0111162300)Black (0111162306)3-Color Sunburst with Rosewood Fretboard (0111160300)Black with Rosewood Fretboard (0111160306)BodyBody: AlderBody Shape: StratocasterBody Finish: Satin Nitrocellulose Lacquer FinishNeckNeck Shape: Modern "C" ShapeNumber of Frets: 22Fret Size: Jumbo FretsPosition Inlays: Black Dot Position InlaysFretboard Radius: 9.5" (24.1 cm)Fretboard: Rosewood or MapleNeck Material: MapleNeck Finish: Satin Urethane FinishNut Width: 1.6875" (43 mm)Scale Length: 25.5" (64.8 cm)Headstock: Large '70s StyleNeck Plate: Standard 4 BoltTruss Rod Nut: 1/8" American Series NutElectronicsPickup Configuration: S/S/SBridge Pickup: Hot Single-Coil Strat Bridge Pickup with Alnico 3 MagnetsMiddle Pickup: Reverse Wound/Reverse Polarity Hot Single-Coil Strat Middle Pickup with Alnico 3 MagnetsNeck Pickup: Hot Single-Coil Strat Neck Pickup with Alnico 3 MagnetsPickup Switching: 5-Position Blade:  Position 1.
