Fender Limited Edition American Performer Stratocaster, MN, Walnut Overview
The Fender Limited Edition American Performer Stratocaster is a true work of art, providing a balance between functionality and aesthetics that has been perfected through decades of Fender innovation. Constructed using only the finest materials, every corner of this instrument has been engineered for your creative convenience. The body is built using ash, complete with a gloss urethane finish - this guarantees a tonal warmth that is complete with a shining tint to the gorgeous walnut wrap.
You'll be able to achieve that bright Start twang thanks to the maple neck and fingerboard alongside the three Yosemite single-coil Stratocaster pickups, which ensures a crystal-clear sound at both high and low outputs. What's more, this guitar is equipped with a vintage-style synchronised tremolo bridge that will allow you to exercise your creativity to its full extent. Not only this, but it also works in harmony with the synthetic bone nut and Fender Style classic gear tuning pegs to maintain a stable tuning and comfortable action above the board.

The Fender Limited Edition American Performer Stratocaster is fully loaded with industry standard hardware that will not only guarantee a long-lasting performance, but also a comfortable one. It's complete with a chrome finish that complements the dark, luxurious aesthetic provided by the black pickguard and control knobs. This creates a great-looking visual appearance whilst guaranteeing reliable usability. What’s more, the tremolo bridge will allow you to explore your creativity to its full extent, taking your performance further.
It’s designed so that – no matter how intensive the whammy action – your guitar retains a stable tuning, so you can say goodbye to retuning between every song. On top of this, the bridge works in harmony with the tuning pegs and synthetic bone nut to ensure a comfortable and adjustable action of the strings is held above the maple fretboard. The comfortable playability that this provides is enhanced by the modern “C” neck design. Complete with a satin urethane finished, this comfortably shaped neck is easily manoeuvrable and allows for pinpoint intonation every time.
Designed with passion & care
The Fender Limited Edition American Performer Stratocaster is built using bespoke tonewoods for a durable performance that will reward you over time and multiple uses. Constructed using ash, the body of this guitar delivers a sturdy performance alongside a well-balanced tone, with tight lows and crystal-clear highs – but where it really excels is in the mid-range. Balanced beautifully by the maple neck, which brings a shimmering brightness to the mix – you’ll be able to exercise your creativity across the scale for an enhanced performance.
It's equipped with three Yosemite single coil Stratocaster pickups that produce that classic Strat pluckiness and clarity with a fiery aggression when pushed hard. Any performer's dream, they are highly versatile and easily tailorable, and will allow you to find your own take on a sound that inspired a generation. With the more delicate, rounded tones on the neck to the sharp, twangy bridge and everything in between – this fine instrument boasts a diverse tone that offers something for everyone. What’s more, it can be moulded quickly and easily via the 5-Way pickup selector, master volume and two-tone knobs. These extensive yet easy-to-use controls allow for a wealth of tonal options to explore.
