Description
The Deluxe Strat HSS takes the familiar Stratocaster formula and adds some backbone. Its alder body, finished in a durable gloss polyurethane Blizzard Pearl, carries a bolt-on maple neck with a Modern “C” profile and 22 narrow-tall frets pressed into a 12″ radius maple fingerboard — flat enough for shredding leads and deep bends without hitting a fret ceiling.
Tonally, this guitar covers a lot of ground. The neck and middle positions house Vintage Noiseless pickups, giving you that crisp, quacky Strat voice with none of the 60-cycle hum. Drop into the bridge and you get the Twin Head Vintage humbucker — moderate output, warm and even-sounding, with a thick aluminum base plate keeping magnetic interference in check. Want a more vintage single-coil bark from that bridge slot? Tap the S-1 switch built into the volume knob to pull the rear coil and get there instantly, no rewiring required.
Playing comfort was clearly a priority: a contoured neck heel paired with the 4-bolt asymmetrical neck plate opens up easy access to the upper frets, while the 2-point synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles offers smooth, stable pitch travel. Deluxe cast/sealed locking tuners keep things in tune and make string changes quick.
Cosmetically, it wears the details that make a Strat look right: nickel/chrome hardware, a three-ply mint green pickguard, and aged white plastic on the covers, knobs, and switch tip.
