Fender Deluxe Readhouse Strat Electric (Classic Copper)

HAVE A REAL GOOD TIME

 

With sound and style tough enough to rock a chicken-wire-enclosed stage, the Deluxe Roadhouse Strat is the perfect instrument for tearing it up all night long. Packed with a wide-ranging variety of tones, ranging from tough, wiry single-coil spank to a high-output sound that's perfect for searing leads, this guitar is versatile enough to handle anything you throw at it with style. It's the perfect instrument for a performer who demands sonic flexibility and the ability to easily switch sounds at the drop of a hat.

 

FEATURES

VINTAGE NOISELESS PICKUPS

These pickups produce all the brilliant pristine, well-defined tone of vintage single-coil Strat pickups, with no hum.

 

12" FINGERBOARD RADIUS

This instrument features a fingerboard radius (the amount of curvature across the width of the fingerboard) that, at 12", is substantially more flattened than both a vintage-style 7.25" radius and a modern 9.5" radius. Feels notably flat even though there’s still slight curvature—great for bending notes without fretting out.

 

TWO-POINT TREMOLO BRIDGE WITH VINTAGE-STYLE SADDLES

This Stratocaster features a two-point tremolo bridge with vintage-style saddles for superior intonation, sustain, tuning stability, tremolo action and ease of adjustment, along with an extra touch of original-era authenticity.

 

LOCKING TUNING MACHINES

This instrument features locking tuning machines for increased tuning stability and easy restringing.

 

SPECIAL ELECTRONICS

The V6 switch and preamp adds six extra tonal variations that can be accessed almost instantly, ranging from mild to wild. This control is cleverly disguised as a tone control, maintaining the guitar’s authentic Strat style.

 

S-1 SWITCH

The pushbutton S-1 switching presents special pickup and wiring modifications for even more tonal versatility. On this instrument, the S-1 switch is built into the master volume control knob and bypasses the preamp and V6 switch for traditional pickup-only sounds.
