American Tone with Road Worn Soul Here’s a great opportunity to own a genuine American-made Strat with vintage style, modern playability and character you can feel in every note. This is a Fender Highway One Stratocaster finished in striking Crimson Red Transparent over an alder body with a rosewood fingerboard. This model represents Fender’s mission to deliver U.S.-built quality at an accessible price, with features that balance vintage flair and modern performance. This guitar has clearly been played and enjoyed but wears its history proudly. There are a few small marks and tiny dings around the body, mostly along the edges and sides but nothing surprising for an instrument of this age. The hardware shows some tarnish, adding to the natural patina. The plastics have discoloured slightly over time, most notably the back plate where the original Fender sticker left a trace. There are the earliest signs of fret wear in the lower positions but it plays cleanly and comfortably up and down the neck. Overall, it’s in great used condition - honest wear without abuse. You’ll find all the tone and feel that makes a Strat iconic, including three vintage-style single-coil pickups, a smooth 9.5" radius rosewood board and the versatile Greasebucket tone circuit that retains clarity even when you roll back the treble. The satin nitro finish gives it a worn-in, resonant vibe that only gets better with time. If you’re after an American Strat with real mojo, player ready tone and that worn-in feel you can’t fake, this Highway One delivers.
