The maple neck features a C-shaped profile, complemented by an Indian laurel fingerboard with 21 Medium Jumbo frets and a 9.5" radius, providing a natural feel for both chords and solos.
The two-point synchronised vibrato with block saddles ensures smooth operation, whilst the die-cast, split-axle, waterproof tuning machines make string changes easier and help maintain tuning stability.
The controls are limited to a master volume, a master tone and a 3-position switch for simple and effective operation. With its black hardware, black three-ply pickguard and Metallic Black finish, this Stratocaster boasts a cohesive aesthetic whilst retaining the essential features of the Affinity series.
