The Fender American Standard Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker Maple 6-String Electric Guitar in 3-Colour Sunburst combines nearly 70 years of guitar-building know-how with the genius of pickup guru Tim Shaw to create an instrument of unrivalled tone and quality.
The Fender American Standard Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker features an Alder body that has been carved into one of the most familiar shapes in the guitar world. This is joined by a modern “C” profile Maple neck that is fitted with an American Series truss rod for added strength and stability. Topping the neck is a 9.5” radius Maple fingerboard that is fitted with 22 medium jumbo frets and a set of black dot inlays.
The body of the Fender American Standard Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker comes equipped with the pickup that gives the model its name – the Tim Shaw-designed Shawbucker. This unique, powerful humbucker pickup is mounted in the bridge position and has been designed to produce the ultimate in modern humbucking tone. Accompanying it are a pair of Custom Shop Fat ‘50s single coil Strat pickups in the middle and neck positions that give the American Standard Stratocaster HSS Shawbucker the kind of classic, sparkling tone that has made the Strat one of the most popular guitars ever.
Joining the pickup selection of the Fender American Standard Strat HSS Shawbucker is a five-position pickup selector switch, a master volume control, two tone controls, a two-point synchronised tremolo with bent steel saddles, a set of deluxe sealed tuners, aged white plastic parts and a three-ply Parchment pickguard.

Este es mi segundo pedido a Music Store y la verdad que todo perfecto, la guitarra muy bien embalada y en 5 días llego el pedido a casa..
Bueno yendo al grano, la guitarra tiene un acabado perfecto en todos los aspectos,, su sonido es espectacular sobre todo en la pastilla del mástil, que tiene un sonido muy gordo y cálido, sin desmejorar las otras dos pastillas, que también suenan bastante bien, la posición 2 suena super limpio y cristalino..
La guitarra no desafina incluso trabajando bastante el tremolo.. El mastil es super manejable para ser una fender.
El único inconveniente es que tuve que quintárla y ajustarla a mi manera yó, estas guitarras deberían de venir por lo menos mejor quintadas, porque lo de ajustarla, cada uno debería ajustarlas a su manera.... Por lo demás todo perfecto.. Merece la pena tener una guitarra de estas, porque tiene un sonido único para tocar ciertos estilos de música.
Enhorabuena a Music Store por su profesionalidad
DIt is een heerlijke strat! De nek is perfect, het lichaam past perfect op het jouwe, de tremolo is heerlijk soepel,... Kortom, een droom om op te spelen! Zelf ben ik wel niet zo voor de Fat 50s die er er sinds 2012 insteken, maar dat is natuurlijk persoonlijke smaak. De fat 50s hebben iets meer bas, maar dus ook minder treble en attack. Voor de rest is dit echt een perfecte strat. Het is de American Standard, dus het een échte strat!
Very comfortable neck, plays very smoothly. I especially like the smoothed fret edges, which feel very nice in the hand. It has all the classic tones youd expect from a Strat. Pickups are really good toi. I think that Fender guitars have never been as good as now!
