Fender Lite Ash Stratocaster Guitar with Tremolo Black
You get the tonal quality of an ash body joined to a highly figured birdseye maple C neck with maple fingerboard, medium-jumbo frets, and abalone dots. The pickup array consists of a Seymour Duncan APS-1N Alnico Pro2 staggered (neck), APS-1RWRP Alnico Pro2 staggered (middle), and APS-1B Alnico Pro2 (bridge) with 5-way switching. Chrome hardware complements the chrome, 2-point pivot trem. Single volume and dual tone controls. Weighs less than 8 lbs. 
Fender 62 Jaguar Electric Guitar
A faster, smarter offspring of 1958's Jazzmaster, this baby has much easier action because of its reduced 24" scale length. The single-coil pickups resemble those of the Strat with the addition of a "keeper" that increases current through the pickup coil and reduces sensitivity to hum. The result is more kick in the mids and less noise. The Jag shares the same preset circuitry found on the Jazzmaster and a trio of selector switches. An individual on/off switch for each pickup and a subtle high-pass filter switch round out the Jag's tonal versatility. Maple neck on alder body with rosewood fretboard and vintage-style floating trem. Funky (removable) string dampener is included for historical accuracy. Includes Fender hardshell case. 
Fender 50th Anniversary American Deluxe Stratocaster Guitar
This limited-edition Strat celebrates 50 years of Strat tradition with the best of the modern day innovations. It starts as an American Deluxe with its modern C-shaped neck, 2-point synchronized tremolo, and a 2-color sunburst finish. Then it adds gold hardware, 3 new Samarium Cobalt Noiseless pickups, and the Fender S-1 switching system. Final touches are a 50th Anniversary logo on the pickguard and engraved into the neck plate. Very cool. Leo would be proud. Includes a Fender deluxe vintage tweed hardshell case with anniversary logo embroidered inside. Also available for lefties! |
