Fender - Standard Stratocaster HSS MN Aqua Marine Metallic

When it comes to Stratocasters, it’s impossible not to mention their legendary comfort. With its double cutaway and “Modern C” neck profile, the Fender Standard Stratocaster Aqua Marine Metallic feels like a natural extension of your arm. Chords flow, solos fly, and you start to wonder if your fingers have made a secret pact with the maple neck. Add to that a satin finish as smooth as a well-behaved cloud, and you get a guitar that combines pleasure and ease with disconcerting ease.

The three Fender Standard single-coil pickups are what make this Stratocaster tick: a crystal-clear sound that knows how to be sharp when needed. Whether you want to caress your strings for a soaring arpeggio or attack them with passion for a hard-hitting riff, this SSS configuration responds with exemplary dynamics. Thanks to the 5-position selector, every nuance is at your fingertips, from the typical snap of the bridge pickup to the warmer, rounder tones of the neck pickup. Enough to juggle between styles and play with conventions with disconcerting ease.

Let's talk little, let's talk bridge! With its two-point synchronized vibrato and satin chrome steel saddles, this Strat opens the doors to expressiveness. Whether you're the type to punctuate your solos with subtle vibratos or dive headfirst into daring dive-bombs, it responds with exemplary stability. And to top it all off, the chrome hardware adds the final touch to this instrument that is as beautiful as it is effective. Once in your hand, it's hard to resist the urge to make it sing again and again!
