The Limited Edition Sandblasted Stratocaster from Fender starts off strong with a beautiful ash body and all the essential appointments that make the Strat the iconic instrument that it is. Onboard, this tone machine sports American Standard single-coil pickups, a Greasebucket tone circuit for taming high end, and a vintage-style tremolo, all of which add up to timeless Stratocaster tone. This limited-edition Strat also sports a transparent finish that's been sandblasted to provide a unique look with a satin texture. For classic sound and killer looks, the Fender Limited Edition Sandblasted Stratocaster is it!
Sandblasted for a one-of-a-kind finish
The alluringly unusual finish treatment on this Fender Limited Edition Sandblasted Stratocaster is sure to garner many jealous glances. After Fender applied a transparent finish to this guitar's ash body, it was sandblasted, leaving its surface grain pattern textured with parallel ruts and grooves. This Strat's black grain-filler coat was then visible beneath the color finish coat, creating a one-of-a-kind surface "topography" - no two sandblasted instruments are alike. Beautifully complemented by a black pickguard, this Limited Edition Stratocaster is truly an exquisite instrument.
Maple neck and fingerboard with modern "C" shape and satin polyester finish
Leo Fender wasn't a guitar player. In fact, he got his start repairing radios. So he had no idea that guitars weren't supposed to have maple necks. In time, those blond maple necks and fingerboards became a Fender trademark, though the company eventually offered rosewood fingerboards on most of its models. Again, for the Limited Edition Sandblasted Stratocaster, it's back to the basics with a maple neck and fingerboard with a modern "C" shape and a satin polyester finish on the back and a gloss finish on the fretboard and headstock.
No-load tone control lets you get aggressive with your amplifier
The Limited Edition Sandblasted Stratocaster is incredibly responsive to its tone control, giving you the flexibility to fine-tune your tone. But turn the no-load tone controller all the way up to 10, and the tone circuit is actually removed completely from the signal path. You'll hit your amplifier with a hotter output and brighter tone than you'd get with normal tone circuits when you plug in with the Limited Edition Sandblasted Stratocaster.
