Fender American Elite Stratocaster 2018

Here at Tom’s Guitar Shop in the heart of Greenwich Market, we’ve got a real gem on the wall — a Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster Plus from 2018, and it’s everything you’d want from a modern Strat and more.

This beauty is loaded with all the deluxe features that make it a serious player’s instrument: a compound-radius maple neck (9.5”–14”) for buttery-smooth bending and speedy runs, locking tuners for rock-solid tuning stability, and the contoured heel for effortless access all the way up the neck.

But what really makes this Strat special is the personality-packed personality card system — a rare innovation from Fender that lets you swap out different tone circuits with ease. This one comes with three of the original tone cards: Standard Strat, Blender, and Cutter, giving you everything from classic spanky chime to thick humbucker-esque drive with just a quick pop and switch. It’s like having three guitars in one, without ever changing strings.

The ash body shows off a stunning transparent finish, and the guitar is in excellent condition — well looked after, with only the lightest signs of use. Comes complete with its original moulded Fender hard case and case candy.

Whether you’re gigging, recording, or just want a Strat that stands out both in looks and tone, this Deluxe Plus won’t disappoint.
