A US-made Strat that covers single-coil sparkle and humbucker crunch – with a coil split. The Fender American Performer Stratocaster HSS in Satin Surf Green with a maple fingerboard has an alder body, a “Modern C” neck with 22 jumbo frets, two Yosemite single-coils and a Double Tap humbucker at the bridge. A push-pull knob splits the humbucker, and the Greasebucket circuit gives a smooth tone roll-off.
