A Modern HH Strat in the American Professional II Line
Part of the American Professional II series, this HH Stratocaster carries the Fender DNA while featuring craftsmanship and electronics designed for today's stage. Its mahogany body, "Ice Blue Metallic" finish, and nickel/chrome hardware provide a contemporary aesthetic, while the 4-bolt neck construction ensures the typical Strat responsiveness.
Who Is It For and What Styles?
Designed for intermediate to expert guitarists, this HH Strat excels in rock, blues, pop, indie, and melodic hard rock. The mini-humbuckers deliver the expected thickness and noise control when overdriven, while retaining the attack and articulation needed for clean and crunch tones.
The Sound
The mahogany body emphasizes rich mids and generous sustain, while the rosewood fingerboard softens the highs for silky cleans. The DiMarzio Vintage mini-humbuckers provide tight lows, singing mids, and precise highs-perfect for transitioning from bright arpeggios to saturated riffs. The 2-point synchronized vibrato ensures smooth and stable action, and the dual volume + master tone controls allow fine balancing of the two pickups via the 3-position selector switch.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
Fender USA 250L Nickel Plated Steel .009-.042 strings: the original gauge, ideal for preserving the feel and vibrato setup.
