Fender Alternate Reality Powercaster White Opal with gig bag
Product no: 9000-0049-2199 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The Powercaster is an electric guitar from Fender's Alternate Reality series. Designed from the ground up, it was built with playing pleasure and tonal variety in mind. One of the things that make it special is that Fender have coupled the gigantic sound of the Atomic humbucker pickup with the punch of the MP-90 soapbar. Add in the 3-ply parchment pickguard and the roasted maple neck and you've got an electric guitar that looks as good as it sounds. It even comes complete with its very own deluxe gig bag.

Alternate Reality Powercaster

The Powercaster has a 24.75-inch scale length which gives it has a slightly different feel from most other Fender models. Not only does it mean a warmer sound, but it also makes it easier to bend the strings. In case you're wondering, 24.75 inches is shorter than the scale length found on standard Strat and Tele models, but longer than the scale length found on models like the Mustang and Jaguar that have an extra short scale length. Thanks to the C profile neck that has an oiled finish and 22 medium jumbo frets, this guitar has a fast, smooth feel for a comfortable playing experience.
