Description
Experience a new side of the American Performer Series with the Fender Timber Stratocaster! This top-of-the-line guitar boasts a Sassafras body coated in a Mocha finish, giving it a striking aesthetic that's sure to capture the heart of any audience. Plus, its trio of Yosemite single-coil pickups churn out a rich, dynamic, and highly musical tone, making it an excellent workhorse for any occasion. If you've been searching for a studio-grade Stratocaster with a unique sound and appearance, you need to try out the American Performer Timber Stratocaster.
The heart of the Timber Stratocaster is its Sassafras body, which has a gorgeous appearance, courtesy of its remarkable wood grain. The body is joined by an ultra-comfy Modern "C" shaped maple neck, which sports a 9.5" radius rosewood fingerboard and 22 jumbo frets. To top it all off, a vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge allows guitarists to perform expressive bends and vibrato.
The American Performer Timber Stratocaster's Yosemite pickups deliver the classic Strat spank and chime, now enhanced for the modern musician. Built with flat-staggered pole pieces, they have increased output, making them great for guitarists looking to hit the front end of their amp with some extra 'oomph.' They also feature a shellac coating that lets the coil breathe while controlling feedback, reducing 60-cycle hum. And, for good measure, this Fender has a push-pull tone control that adds the neck pickup to any switch position.
Complete with a deluxe gig bag, the Fender American Performer Timber Stratocaster is a rock-solid guitar with tons to offer. Whether you're just beginning your musical journey or playing sold-out arena shows, the Timber Strat is an excellent guitar that's built to inspire for years to come.
