General

Fender's American Performer Stratocaster HSS is extremely versatile thanks to features like its HSS pickup configuration, its push/pull tone potentiometer and its GreaseBucket tone circuit. These give you a huge range of sounds to go with this model's authentic feel and timeless look. The American Performer series is the spiritual successor to the American Special series which means you won't find an American Fender for a better price. It even comes complete with a deluxe gig bag.

American Performer Stratocaster HSS

This Stratocaster features Fender's Yosemite single-coil pickups that were specially developed for this series. They deliver a high output and have a shellac coating to prevent problems with feedback. There's also a DoubleTap humbucker on board that can be split for single-coil sounds using the push/pull tone potentiometer. Fender have even made sure there'll be no difference in volume when switching between the humbucker and split single-coils thanks to some clever innovations.

Authentic Strat feel

One of the reasons Stratocasters are so popular is because they offer excellent playing comfort. That's no different here thanks to the satin-gloss finish on the back of the neck that is fast and smooth. The modern C profile, rounded 9.5-inch radius and 22 jumbo frets all play their part here as well.

Wrote the following about Fender American Performer Stratocaster HSS Aubergine RW with bag

Tijdens de eindejaaracties was het moment gekomen om - met de mooie kortingen dan - eindelijk een echte Amerikaanse Strat aan te schaffen. Deze Performer stond in B-stock met flinke korting. Ik heb deze Performer zij-aan-zij getest met een American Elite waar een nog flinkere korting op zat (einde reeks wegens de American Ultra serie die eraan kwam).

Om een lang verhaal kort te maken (en ik denk dat het genoeg zegt) : ik heb de American Elite laten staan en ben met de Performer buiten gestapt. ;-)

P.S. :De kleur moet je in het echt zien. Is echt veel mooier dan op de foto's
