American Fender Stratocaster Guitar

What is it that makes the Fender Stratocaster an individual guitar is the unique, intimate sound which comes from the three single coil pickup configuration. Although they can be a little noisy at times and need time to learn to handle at high volumes, they do have an edge to them  that is perfect for that rock n roll sound. They have a distinguished fit and finish, with great attention to detail. I’m know others would agree I’m sure that the Stratocaster holds tuning very well. I found the action on my Fender Stratocaster was setup about right for me, which is a plus as well. You’ll sometimes find the factory settings on some guitars higher than they need to be. I chose a maple board for my Strat as it just seems to glide smoothly, as well as a satin neck which is nice and slick. They comein a variety of wood finishes, but it depends upon what is right for you. The American Standard Stratocaster comes with a new bridge, with refined bent-steel saddles for that increased resonance and sustain. The saddles keep that vintage look and tone, but with a few modern improvements for example spacing, slot elongation and height screw length.The bridge has been made to complement the 22 medium jumbo frets and rolled edges which allows more room for your fingers . They have also elongated the string slot to lower friction and string breakage, while which improves the string break angle over the primary contact point. Other than all this the fact that the Stratocaster is one of the most sought after guitar speaks volumes.

I bought my Stratocaster online from Music 123, which is a fantastic site not just because of their prices, but the fact they are so honest with their reviews. The items they sell are of the highest quality. My Stratocaster was available with various finishes which include the wood finishes and colors and on top of that a number of different knobs, tips and pickup covers.
