Electrifying the music world since its release in 1954, its natural, versatile sound made the Stratocaster the benchmark for exceptional guitar tones. The American Professional Stratocaster HH ShawBucker isn’t a re-imagining of the classic design; it’s the authentic original model, evolved for today’s players.

I really hate it when people who don't even own an instrument leave pointless and nonsensical reviews. So unlike the previous reviewer, I actually purchased this Fender Am-Pro Strat HH and just LOVE it! It was set-up beautifully right out of the box. The finish was flawless, the set-up great, and I really like the antique Olive (khaki) color. I've been wanting an HH strat for some time. I love the feel and playability of strats in general (esp. vs Gibson et.al. which I do own and rarely play do to the comfort factor). This strat is the perfect lighter weight. Much to my surprise, I absolutely love the feel of the new neck -- it feels great in hand without feeling chunky or limiting playability and the satin finish is smooth as smooth can be and very fast. Fretwork is also very nice. The 5-way switch for the pups offers great tonal options with the humbuckers and it sounds great regardless of the amp I plug into. Thanks for another great guitar, Fender!

.This would be a great guitar if you change the pickups and neck. This guitar seems like A failed attempt to copy Ibanez or ESP. Although, they do a great job of copying an Indo case.....very cheap!
