Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good
A true gentleman of a Strat that isn't afraid to cause a little ruckus! These Fender Select models are great--the tonewoods, electronics, and fit and finish in general are all more akin to their Custom Shop magic than their standard production instruments.
SP Luthier Notes: Setup
From Fender
The Fender Select Stratocaster HSS takes the refined elegance of its triple-single-coil brother and amps it up through the roof with the extra power of a humbucking bridge pickup. Features include a striking Antique Burst gloss-lacquer finish on a sleek flame maple-top body. Its modern "C" shaped birdseye maple neck has a comfortable contoured heel, Bi-Flex™ truss rod system for rock-solid stability, a satin lacquer finish and rear-headstock "Fender Select" medallion. The smooth-playing compound radius rosewood fretboard (9.5"-14") has 22 medium jumbo frets and stylish white pearloid position inlays. Full-throated sound roars from the Fender Select Stratocaster humbucking bridge pickup, with singing tone from new Fender Select Stratocaster single-coil neck and middle pickups, all with five-way switching.
