Fender American Performer Stratocaster HSS

Born in Corona, California, the American Performer Stratocaster HSS delivers the exceptional tone and feel you expect from a Fender. It’s loaded with new enhancements, like the Double Tap™ humbucking pickup, that make it even more inspiring to play.

The American Performer Stratocaster HSS includes the Yosemite™ single-coil pickups – designed for rich, expressive tones – and a Double Tap™ humbucking bridge pickup. This unique, patent-applied-for design combines humbucking and single-coil voices, while eliminating volume loss in single-coil mode. With flat-staggered pole pieces to increase output, and the single-coil pickups’ shellac coating and humbucking pickup’s wax potting that lets the coil breathe while controlling feedback, Yosemite & Double Tap™ pickups produce dynamic sounds ideal for any musical situation.

The American Performer Stratocaster HSS also features Greasebucket™ tone circuitry, along with a push-pull tone control to control the Double Tap™ humbucking pickup. The “Modern C”-shaped neck sports a 9.5″-radius fingerboard that’s comfortable for almost any playing style, along with 22 jumbo frets for effortless and accurate bending.

HIGHLIGHTS:
New Yosemite Pickups

Handcrafted in Corona, California, Yosemite pickups are specifically voiced for each instrument and position. This creates sonically versatile and musically useful sounds.

New ClassicGear Tuning Machines

Combining vintage style with a modern 18:1 gear ratio, the ClassicGear tuning machines have smooth action and make it easier to fine-tune your instrument.

Jumbo Frets

Jumbo frets make it easier to achieve wide, expressive bends that add your personal touch to your music.

Push-Pull Potentiometer

The push-pull pot controls the unique Double Tap™ humbucking pickup. This unlocks single-coil tones without any volume loss, making it easy to adjust your sound mid-performance.

Satin-Finished Neck

Featuring a “Modern C”-shaped profile that works well with almost any playing style. The neck also hosts a satin finish on the back, giving it a smooth, fast playing feel.

Greasebucket Tone System

This uniquely Fender tone system lets you cut treble without losing gain or “muddying” your sound, preserving your carefully shaped tone.
