Fender Highway 1 Stratocaster HSS


$900.00

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Versatile - good for many different styles. Sounds good - can be used with lots of different equipment. Finish - feels nice and looks elegant.

The Cons:Quality control - reported issues with slightly warped necks. Uses a Humbucker bridge - too large for some players. Doesn't come with a hard case - only includes a gig bag.

The Highway One Stratocaster HSS pays homage to guitarists who emerged in the ?80s as hobbyist luthiers?adding aftermarket appointments like black bobbin humbucking pickups and DIY finishes. Two single-coil pickups with Alnico magnets and staggered pole pieces are coupled with a Fender Atomic II humbucker for amazing sonic versatility.
Other features include a resonant alder body with a light satin-lacquer finish, large headstock, one-piece maple neck with 22 medium-jumbo frets, and synchronized tremolo.

Mac: #fender_highway_1_stratocaster_hss this is the best guitar in the world. Ive been playing my highway 1 for a number of years now. It has that classic strat sound you hear when you listen to Stevie Ray or Jimi. I love this guitar. Dare I say, its pretty much my best friend. Sep 22, 11
