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. We 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 case.
Two beautiful new finish options, Sienna Sunburst and Blizzard

Combines Fender guitar know-how with Roland technology for a versatile and innovative guitar.
You no longer need to choose between a virtual guitar and a real guitar. The Fender VG Stratocaster is both everything you'd expect from a Fender Strat, and a whole lot more!
Lurking beneath its classic Strat exterior are 37 sounds based on Strat, Tele, humbucker Strat and acoustic, as well as 5 tunings, but the aesthetic and cosmetic of the Strat remains intact. Even better, the VG Stratocaster delivers level, balanced tone and volume across all these remarkable functions, so that you won't need to continually readjust amp settings with each change in guitar sound.
No unique hardware necessary to use the VG Strat guitar: no special 13-pin or USB cables, no power supply or input box. It plugs in and plays like any electric guitar. All you'll notice visually are 2 additional knobs on the VG Strat's pickguard, plus a small LED and an inconspicuous Roland® GK bridge pickup. The 2 additional knobs are a Mode Control knob and a Tuning Function knob.
The Mode Control Knob between a Virtual version of the Ash bodied Strat (for use of the tuning function), a virtual Telecaster, virtual 2-humbucker Strat, and an assortment of 5 acoustics, from Dreadnought to Resonator. The 5-way blade switch switches you between sounds in the modeling modes just like on a regular guitar.
Tune function rotary control lets you choose between Normal regular tuning, Drop D, Open G, DADGAD, Baritone/Low B, and 12 string. The tuning function does not work in Normal mode when circuit is bypassed. Tuning function is also relative if you tune down to E flat, all of these tunings will transpose down a half step. Since guitarists don't have to turn a single tuning key, a major benefit of all these instant tuning changes is that the string tension remains the same and the guitar itself feels the same.
Fender's VG Stratocaster is the result of a 10-year research and design partnership between Fender and music technology pioneer Roland Corporation. The VG's development followed a commitment to "The Complex Art of Keeping It Simple." Developers spent time and great effort working out intricate details so that you can just plug in and play. Their goal: a balance of usability and tech the more functionality added to an instrument, the more complex it becomes. Fender kept it pared down so it could really be used in a live setting. They stayed with Fender sounds Strat®, Tele®, Humbucking pickups and acoustics. No unique hardware is necessary to use the VG Strat guitar: no special 13-pin or USB cables, no power supply or input box. It plugs in and plays like any electric guitar, and no phonebook sized manual is necessary it is built for 5 minute mastery, and is easy to use and understand.
The VG Stratocaster is an American Series Strat featuring the classic sleek, contoured body shape, 3 American Series single-coil pickups with five-position switching, a maple neck with a maple or rosewood fingerboard, a synchronized tremolo bridge, a 3-ply parchment pickguard and chrome hardware.
The Fender Custom Artist Series Eric Clapton Stratocaster is an exact representation of Eric's personal axe made by the same craftsmen who made the actual Clapton guitar. Refinements include a special neck shape, Noiseless pickups, and active circuitry. Standard features include an alder body, bone nut, vintage frets, and chrome hardware.
Our Eric Clapton Stratocaster guitar is guaranteed to please all you “Slowhand” fans. Among the “Cream” of our crop, this signature Strat offers special features including a trio of Fender Vintage Noiseless™ pickups, plus powerful active mid-boost and TBX circuits, all of which make it one of the most versatile instruments we offer. Other features include a special soft V-shaped neck and a blocked original vintage synchronized tremolo bridge

The Stratocaster really came into its own in the 1960s, with players
coaxing unbelievable sounds from it amid punishing stage shows and
grueling tours. Beaten, bruised and even burned, they only got better
as the years wore on—looking even cooler and feeling even more
comfortable. Fender's new rosewood-fretboard Road Worn '60s Strat
delivers that aged look and feel—built to look, sound and feel like
it's got more than just a few miles on it, designed with 1960s specs,
including a nitrocellulose-lacquer finish, and supercharged with
Tex-Mex™ pickups and 6105 frets.

Few things in this world have gotten cooler with age than the Stratocaster.
Born in the '50s, they became even cooler after years of use (and abuse) on the
road—morphing over time to look appealingly battered and feel even better than
when they were brand-new. Fender's new maple-fretboard Road Worn '50s Strat
delivers that aged look and feel—built to look, sound and feel like it's got
more than just a few miles on it, designed with 1950s specs, including a

The first Fender workhorse; the original road warrior guitar. Fender's
long road begins with the Telecaster, a guitar that amazingly looked
even cooler and handled even better the more players heaped
wear-and-tear on it—great when brand-new but positively phenomenal with
a few thousand miles on it. Fender's new maple-fretboard Road Worn
'50s Tele delivers that aged look and feel—built to look, sound and
feel like it has survived half a century, designed with 1950s specs,
including a nitrocellulose-lacquer finish, and supercharged with
Tex-Mex™ pickups and 6105 frets.
The Deluxe Player Stratocaster guitar is a revised version of the former “Super
Strat.” A true workhorse of a guitar, it has been upgraded with U.S.-made
Vintage Noiseless™ pickups, and it features a 12” neck radius, medium-jumbo
frets and a push-button switch that gives you seven different pickup
combinations!
