Fender American Elite Stratocaster with Maple Fretboard 2018 - Tobacco Sunburst
For sale today is a beautiful guitar, the Fender American Elite Stratocaster from 2018. This guitar features a maple neck, with maple fretboard with a modern profile that starts as a modern "C" shape at the first fret, and graduates to a modern "D" shape near the contoured heel. The locking tuners at the headstock allow for quick string changes, and increased tuning stability. The body is made of 1 piece of ash and it features 4th generation Fender noiseless pickups. These pickups are among my favorite noiseless pickups because they retain a lot of their brightness while being completely silent. The guitar also features an S-1 switch integrated into the volume knob. This allows you for even more pickup combinations and possibilities.
Overall the guitar is in fabulous shape for being a few years old. There are no large scratches, dings, dents, or divots on the body, or neck of the guitar. The only visible signs of wear are extremely minute clear coat swirling on the body, and pickguard. The belly cut has one surface scratch that is visible, but even that does not go through the top clear coat and cannot be felt by the touch. The guitar comes with a ton of extras including COA, S-1 information, tremolo bar, leather Fender bag, case keys, hang tags, adjustment wrenches and more. The fact that the body is 1 piece ash is pretty wild, and a premium feature. The playability and action on this is among the top in our store with very low action and no fret-out. These guitars were built spectacularly well. It will come shipped in its original TSA rated hardshell case. If you're looking for a Stratocaster that can handle some overdrive, and want good tuning stability, and turns heads, don't look any further than this Fender American Elite Stratocaster. It weighs in at 8 lbs. 4 oz.
