(ARCHIVE) Fender Standard Stratocaster HSS Black 2017
- Description
- Guitarchives
Fender Standard Strat, black, made in Mex 2017. The Standard series was a Fender staple for many moons, and they were always respectable takes on the classic models. This one was made in 2017, a year or two before they switch to the Player series. It's got a nice neck: slim and round with a slick satin finish, carved from some pretty nice maple, it feels nice in the hands. The humbucker in the bridge slot solves the age-old Strat fatness deficit, while the neck and middle deliver a glassy chime that delivers the goods. Tidy stuff!
