This is a 2016 Fender American Elite Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker Electric Guitar in Olympic Pearl white. This guitar has only been played a handful of times, and still has its original pickguard sticker on it. There are minimal scratches on pickguard as I do not play with a pick. Includes everything the guitar normally comes with (tremolo bar, hard shell case, strap locks, etc.). Everything is in excellent condition, including electronics and fretboard. Please do not hesitate if you have any questions.
Mixing modern sound and a plethora of innovative features with traditional visual style, the American Elite Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker doesn’t just push the envelope—it completely annihilates it. Designed for modern players who need tonal variety on tap, as well as unprecedented performance and supple playing feel, this top-notch performer delivers every single time you plug it in and play.This American Elite HSS model combines a powerful Shawbucker open-coil humbucking bridge pickup with the exclusive New 4th generation Noiseless pickups, which represent a quantum leap in pickup design. The new Noiseless pickups’ hum-free vintage- style sound and the Shawbucker’s snarling midrange creates pristine cleans and gigantic overdriven tones for multidimensional classic Stratocaster sound turned up to 11. Push-push switching enables the “passing lane”, which instantly rerouts to your bridge pickup signal, bypassing the tone circuit, kicking your tone into overdrive with enhanced overtones and high output. Designed for fast playing and effortless position changes, the compound profile neck with a 9.5”-14” compound radius fingerboard is ideal for all playing styles. A modern “C”-shape at the nut, the profile morphs along the length of the neck to a modern “D”- shaped profile at the updated neck heel, providing plenty of comfortable support for fret hand antics. Locking, all short-post tuning machines provide increased break angle at the bone nut for buzz-free performance. The smooth two-point modern tremolo adds emotive touches to your performance without sacrificing your tuning. In a vintage-inspired touch, the new truss rod adjustment wheel has been moved to the butt end of the neck for easier access, making neck relief adjustments a snap.Fender is renowned for mind-blowing style, and this guitar is no different—from therefined, sleek and deeper contours that hug the player’s body to the black chrome headstock logo, new modern string tree, large pearloid fret markers and unique new colors this instrument will dazzle the audience with classic aesthetics. The American Elite Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker is a bold new guitar for progressive players setting out to explore new musical frontiers. Includes a redesigned Elite Molded Case with TSA locks to provide increased protection for your cherished instrument.BodyBody shape: Double cutawayBody type: Solid bodyBody material: Solid woodTop wood: Not applicableBody wood: AlderBody finish: GlossOrientation: Right handedNeckNeck shape: Modern C to DNeck wood: MapleJoint: Bolt-onScale length: 25.5"Truss rod: StandardNeck finish: GlossFretboardMaterial: RosewoodRadius: CompoundFret size: Medium-jumboNumber of frets: 22Inlays: DotNut width: 1.687" (42.8mm)PickupsConfiguration: HSSNeck: 4th Generation NoiselessMiddle: 4th Generation NoiselessBridge: ShawbuckerBrand: FenderActive or passive pickups: PassiveSeries or parallel: SeriesPiezo: NoActive EQ: YesSpecial electronics: S-1 switching, Push-Push Passing Lane Switch to Engage Bridge Pickup and Bypass Tone ControlsControlsControl layout: Master volume, tone 1, tone 2Pickup switch: 5-wayCoil tap or split: NoKill switch: NoHardwareBridge type: Tremolo/VibratoBridge design: 2-point synchronizedTailpiece: Not applicableTuning machines: Die-cast lockingColor: ChromeOtherNumber of strings: 6-stringSpecial features: New Modern String Tree, Asymmetrical Neck Heel, Black Chrome Fender Headstock DecalCase: Hardshell caseAccessories: Strap locks, Deluxe leather strap, Cable, Pop-in tremolo arm, Adjustment wrenchesCountry of origin: United States
