An American-made Stratocaster with a Limited-edition Spruce Body

Fender fans looking to plot a course off the beaten path can discover a limited-edition USA-made Stratocaster from the Timber series, available with your choice of a solid spruce, sassafras, or pine body. This Limited-edition American Performer Timber Stratocaster features a spruce body that accentuates note attack and zesty overtones, so you know it’s a natural fit for a Strat's spring and quack. The body is backed by the quintessential quality and comfort of Fender’s American Performer line; the maple modern “C”-shaped neck and rosewood fingerboard fuel fast fretting at either end of the frets. Meanwhile, three Yosemite single-coil pickups supply the unbound versatility of a Strat with elevated output for driving modern amps, amp sims, and pedals — they’re arguably the finest Strat pickups of the 21st century! Finally, a bevy of high-quality components ensures stellar tone and performance, including a vintage-style tremolo bridge, ClassicGear tuners, a Greasebucket tone circuit, and a lightweight satin finish. Grab your limited-edition USA-made Fender here at Sweetwater before the Timber line is no more!


Acclaimed American-made quality

Fender’s American Performer series exists to do one thing: to give you a genuine US-made Fender at an unbeatable price. The American Performer Stratocaster retains a selection of cool Strat features, including a supremely playable maple neck and a rosewood fingerboard, jumbo frets, Yosemite pickups, and Fender’s innovative Greasebucket tone control. All in all, it’s quite a potent music-delivery system. And it’s made right here in the USA, in Fender’s state-of-the-art Corona, California, factory.


Vintage-tinged tone with higher output and modern wiring

This Strat’s Yosemite single-coil pickups vintage tonal balance and amp-pushing punch at the same time. Flat-staggered pole pieces give each string a vintage-tinged attack, while a blend of Alnico IV and Alnico V magnets boost output for more aggressive single-coil output. These elements give the Yosemite more dynamic range when the rubber meets the road, and guitarists at Sweetwater find themselves better equipped to make musical adjustments via their volume knob while performing.

Greasebucket tone control rolls off highs without adding bass

Fender has fitted the American Performer Stratocaster with its Greasebucket tone control, which rolls off highs without adding bass or affecting your volume. This is noteworthy because it gives you explicit control over your tone onstage without having to compensate for volume loss, making the American Performer Strat a serious tone machine.


Prep for the future and honor traditions with Timber innovations

Instrument manufacturers typically turn to the same tonewoods they’ve relied on for decades (centuries in some cases). After all, why change when you know that a particular wood performs well? But times have indeed changed with the modern challenges of availability and sustainability. Fender faced these concerns when an invasive beetle species recently decimated the supply of instrument-grade ash in North America. As another testament to the company’s penchant for innovation, Fender has identified select alternative tonewoods that are liable to become your new favorite. Spruce, sassafras, and roasted pine are just a sampling of the tantalizing tonewoods we’ve seen used for the Timber series instruments. Which will you choose?
