Polyurethane Finish

Icon. Not a word to be used lightly. But the Stratocaster is just that. The new American Standard Stratocaster guitars are beauties to behold in sound, look and feel. Fender 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 maple or 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 "TSA" case.
