Fender American Professional Stratocaster HSS MN Black

HSS Punch with Strat Chime and a Switchable Bridge Voice

The Fender American Professional Stratocaster HSS pairs V-Mod III Strat single coils in the neck and middle positions with a V-Mod III bridge humbucker. The single coils retain the bell-like chime and warmth associated with a Strat, while the humbucker adds a punchier bridge sound. Press the push-push tone control and the bridge pickup coil-splits to a calibrated single-coil voice, giving you a leaner option when the full humbucker is more than you need.

The Deep “C” Maple neck combines rolled fingerboard edges, a “Super-Natural” satin urethane finish and a sculpted heel with a 241 mm (9.5") radius and 22 Narrow Tall frets. A classic Strat combo of Black finish and a 3-ply Mint Green pickguard give the Alder body a strong visual contrast.

The 2-point synchronized tremolo uses a cold-rolled steel block to increase sustain, clarity and high-end sparkle, while ClassicGear Radial bent-steel saddles use recessed adjustment screws that stay clear of your picking hand. A Deluxe Moulded Case is included.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this Stratocaster HSS is ideal for players who want traditional Strat chime alongside a fuller bridge sound that can still be switched back to single-coil territory.
