The new American Standard Stratocaster guitars are beauties to behold in sound, look and feel. We kept the hand-rolled fingerboard edges, alnico V pickups and staggered tuning machines for playability, tone and stability, and added several new features, including:

* A new bridge with improved bent-steel saddles and a copper-infused high-mass block for increased resonance and sustain.
* A new neck treatment--tinted for a richer presentation, with the rosewood fingerboard buffed to a high gloss. The back of the neck still has that silky satin finish.
* A thinner finish undercoat that lets the body breathe and improves resonance.
* A new Fender-exclusive SKB molded case.
