Fender Stratocaster AMERICAN DELUXE STRATOCASTER HSS with Deluxe Locking Tremolo Guitar Review :: Fender Electric Guitars Reviews
for players who use a lot of tremolo
Same specs as American Deluxe Fender Stratocaster HSS guitar, but with an additional feature: the strings lock into the bridge, LSR nut and locking machine heads. The Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster HSS LT Electric Guitar is the answer for players who use a lot of tremolo and who are looking for a top-of-the-line Strat. An LSR Roller Nut, locking tuners, and locking bridge saddles add a modern tonal edge and assure excellent tuning stability, while the bridge-position humbucking pickup offers extra punch in lead situations. S-1 Switching and SCN (Samarian Cobalt Noiseless) pickups make this guitar extremely tonally versatile.
Samarium Cobalt Noiseless pickups Fender partnered with legendary pickup designer Bill Lawrence. The pickup that was birthed from this extraordinary partnership is the Samarium Cobalt Noiseless pickup. Fender’s groundbreaking S-1 switching system allows players to switch pickup configurations in an instant. The switch is visually undetectable, but tonally it turns your instrument into the most versatile axe on the planet! Located in the crown of the master volume knob, one push of the switch will place your pickups in an assemblage of parallel, series and pickup-combining configurations. You can have the best of all worlds!
It has no hum, no microphonics, close to zero magnetic interruption of the string path; and the widest sonic parameters possible-from Fender classic single coils to tones not yet imagined. Truly a revolutionary design in guitar pickups.
