New Sound for a Classic Strat!
Pick this up and you will find out real quick why Guitarist Magazine gave this guitar a  9/10 rating. I purchased this guitar but never really played it. It has been in  the case the whole time and has the perfect feel but I just prefer a Les Paul with the four knobs. I though I needed it to play that SRV stuff but I just never end up changing guitars.
This is in "new" condition, not one ding or scratch, it's in perfect condition. 
Guitar at a Glance:Optimized for wide-ranging tone2-point synchronized tremolo allows you to twist, bend, and diveThinner body undercoat for optimal body resonance.Optimized for wide-ranging toneFender voiced the American Deluxe Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker for big, open tone with plenty of chime and sparkle. This is achieved by running the Shawbucker bridge pickup at 500K, for greater openness and brilliance, while the neck and middle pickups run at 250K for sparkly single-coil tones. You'll especially notice the enhanced definition when you're using combined pickup positions.2-point synchronized tremolo allows you to twist, bend, and diveWhile there's no denying the fact that Leo Fender's guitar designs were an amazing blend of art and engineering, it was the erroneously named synchronized tremolo (it's actually a vibrato) that may well have been his most inspired bit of engineering. With it you could bend notes or even entire chords up or down without throwing the guitar out of tune. Even though Fender has continued to improve upon the tremolo, many players simply prefer the look and feel of the original. This Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker solidbody electric guitar sports a 2-point synchronized tremolo, along with bent steel saddles, allowing you to twist, bend, and dive with complete abandon.Thinner body undercoat for optimal body resonanceAn undercoat serves to give the paint a smooth surface to adhere to so you have a nice-looking finish. The thicker the undercoat, the more glass-like the finish, but the more constricted the guitar's body wood, which could affect tone. Fender has switched to a new undercoat that is thinner, and that allows the body to flex and resonate more, while retaining the cosmetic advantages of an undercoat. The result? You get the tough-as-nails resilience of a modern poly finish, with tonal characteristics that are more in line with classic laquer finishes. With this Fender American Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker solidbody electric guitar, you get the best of both worlds.Enhance your tonal tenacity with the Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker!Guitar Features:Classic Standard Strat design with an updated bridge pickup design"Shawbucker" designed by pickup guru Tim Shaw for big, open, modern soundIdeal combination of chiming vintage tone and clear, defined modern toneEminently playable fast-action neck and smooth-feeling rolled fingerboardThin undercoat finish for improved resonanceReviews:"Awesome Guitar!This guitar is fantastic! As soon as I opened the case, I knew I had something special. The finish is gorgeous and has really beautiful patterns in the woodgrain. The neck is just perfect. One of the best necks I ever seen. I love the satin finish on the neck. As far as sound, it is near perfect. It plays any style of music I can throw at it, even metal. The Shawbucker sound incredible for Metallica. Not much of a volume change when switching from the Shawbucker to the single coils which is really great since that is a common annoyance on HSS strats. This is not my first strat, but definitely the best one I’ve had. This really holds its own with my other, more expensive, guitars like my PRS Tremonti USA and my ESP KH-2. This one’s a keeper for sure! Had to wait a couple weeks for it to come in, but it was worth the wait!"Alan Greenleaffrom Nashville, TNSeptember 18, 2015
