Fender Limited Edition American Professional Classic Stratocaster Daphne Blue, Rosewood Fingerboard

The Fender Limited Edition American Professional Classic Stratocaster Featuring the Fender Silent System deals out authentic single-coil chime and articulation with pure hum-free performance. A trio of Coastline ’57 Stratocaster pickups start this 6-string off, pairing era-accurate components with a slightly hotter output. In addition, Fender’s Silent System Mechanism incorporates an additional magnet-less coil under the pickguard to eliminate unwanted 60-cycle hum. Next, the solid alder body flaunts familiar Strat contours, imbuing it with the soul of a golden-era Fender, evolved for today's players. The satin-finished maple neck, which sports a Modern C shape, gives this solidbody electric guitar an eminently satisfying, hand-filling feel. Meanwhile, the 9.5-inch-radius, 22-fret fingerboard provides you with a revved-up platform for lightning-fast playability. You also get Fender Staggered ClassicGear tuning machines and a vintage-style synchronized tremolo, certifying rock-solid stability — even under demanding playing conditions. Finally, a custom finish, a 4-ply tortoiseshell pickguard, and aged plastic parts give this Strat a spotlight-stealing look that's impossible to ignore. No matter how noisy the stage or studio setting, this superb Strat defeats hum and hiss at the source without giving an inch when it comes to historic single-coil chime.
