American Standard Stratocaster Bridge
The American Standard Stratocaster sports a new bridge that gives sought-after
tone with modern smooth trem travel. This redesigned block retains the mass and
tone of a vintage bridge block, but is chamfered for access to deeper dives.
The new saddles have the classic look and tone, but with modern improvements
such as spacing, slot elongation, and height screw length).

Bridge Components
The American Standard Stratocaster incorporates bent steel Fender saddles. The
original vintage-style Fender bent steel adjustable saddle is one of the
components that give vintage Fenders their tonal 'mojo.' Fender conducted tone
comparison tests, and discovered the magic all over again. Sonically, they have
a wider tonal range and more character than the other saddles. Then Fender
improved them, narrowing the spacing to afford more room (and complement the
bigger frets and rolled edges), and also elongated the string slot to reduce
friction and string breakage, while improving the string break angle over the
primary contact point. The end result: more tone!

A typical cast bridge block is impregnated with a resin to eliminate 'voids' in
the material and to bond it together. Fender's new steel block is infused with
copper, which makes the block 100% homogeneous metal. The result is a more
musical, higher mass bridge that has more of that machined-block sound. Fender
was also able to keep the same American Series profile for increased tremolo
travel.

Neck Gloss and Tint
The old Fender necks were satin all over primarily for the feel of the back of
the neck. On the American Standards Fender kept the satin neck back, but still
gave the rich tint and luster of a gloss finish to the front. When looking at
the old and new side by side in comparison, there is no arguing that the new
necks look classier and more detailed and 'finished'.

Thinner Body Undercoat
An undercoat serves to give the paint a smooth surface to adhere to so you have
a nice looking finish. The thicker the undercoat, the more glass-like the
finish, but the more constricted the guitar's body wood, which could affect
tone. Fender has switched to a new undercoat that is thinner, and that allows
the body to flex and resonate more, while retaining the cosmetic advantages of
an undercoat.

Fender SKB Case
The new case is a true advancement in guitar presentation and protection. It is
stackable, it balances perfectly, it is TSA lock equipped, and has glass
reinforced nylon trigger latches and a killer form-fitted plush interior.
