Specifications

Electronics & Features

The Modern Series was designed for players who want classic Fender styling paired with modern performance features.

The Modern-Modified humbuckers provide thick, punchy output with excellent clarity and articulation, making this Strat equally comfortable handling clean tones, classic rock, hard rock, and higher-gain applications.

The compound-radius fingerboard and compound neck profile are standout features. The neck feels comfortable and familiar in lower positions while allowing effortless bends and lead playing higher up the neck.

The factory locking tuners and deluxe 2-point tremolo provide excellent tuning stability and smooth operation.

Tone & Feel

This guitar feels fast, refined, and incredibly comfortable.

The Modern-Modified humbuckers offer more power and midrange punch than traditional Strat pickups while still retaining excellent clarity and note definition. The result is a versatile guitar capable of covering a huge range of styles.

The satin-finished neck feels smooth and broken-in, while the compound-radius fingerboard makes bends easy and comfortable.

At 8 lbs 4 oz, it has a substantial but balanced feel and excellent resonance.
