The American Professional II Stratocaster HH does things a little different, featuring a body and neck made of mahogany for a warmer and fuller core sound compared to Fender's more traditional Strats. This makes this Limited Edition particularly suitable for guitarists looking for a rounder sound with more woody undertones, without losing out on iconic looks. The high-gloss polyurethane finish of the body and the semi-gloss Super-Natural finish of the neck not only provide a classy and familiar vibe, but a smooth playing feel. The American Pro II Stratocaster HH: Fresh Mini Humbuckers With a Split-Coil Function The pair of DiMarzio Vintage Minibuckers are another fresh feature. The DP241 bridge pickup and DP240 neck pickup have been specially designed to give players the pick of a wide range of clear and defined amplified sounds supported by maximum playing dynamics. Even when you add distortion or overdrive to the sonic mix, your chords and notes never sound muddy. So you can access an equally broad collection of single-coil-style sounds, Fender has mounted a push/pull master tone pot with coil-split functionality, doubling the tonal flexibility. The Best of Both Worlds Combining quality hardware with traditional specs, the American Professional II Stratocaster HH offers the best of both worlds. The modern Deep C neck profile and the rounded edges of the dark rosewood fretboard make navigating all twenty-two frets as smooth as can be, while the advanced, two-point tremolo system features a cold-rolled steel block for enhanced sustain and extra-tasty vibratos. To top it all off, Fender generously includes a deluxe moulded guitar case.
