Fender Aerodyne Special Stratocaster Chocolate Burst RW Electric Guitar with Gig Bag

General

Bringing the classic Strat layout bang up-to-date, this contemporary guitarist's dirty dream is the Fender Aerodyne Special Stratocaster. Fresh looks, fresh playability and fresher sound comes backed up by iconic style, where the Strat body shape has been streamlined, contoured in all the right places and bound before being dipped in high-gloss lacquer. While this model does bear the tried-and-tested Fender recipe of a C-profile maple neck with a satin-gloss-coated backside and a set of twenty-two medium-jumbo frets, it features a flattened and focused 12 inch fretboard radius to tighten up playability and speed everything up.

The Fender Aerodyne Special Stratocaster: Modern, Mid-Rich Single-Coil Sound Plus More Sustain & Definition

The hardware of this 100% Japanese-made Strat has also been given a modern boost. So, the standard-issue tremolo bridge has been replaced with a Babicz FCH-2 Point Tremolo bridge: a major tweak that doesn't just offer fluid whammy-bar action but improves resonant transfer, so the natural mid-range foundation of the basswood body is intensified to lush effect and note definition is enhanced. This all-new model also features an all-new trio of Aerodyne Special Single-Coil Stratocaster pups that combine with a five-way switch and set of new-look chrome witch-hat tone and volume pots to unleash more sustain, more articulation, and inject more nuance into that classic Strat-flavoured spank and growl.
