NEW - Dapper and bold – the Uptown Strat® commands attention when it enters a room. Static White lacquer highlights and accentuates the slab mahogany body, a bound and block inlaid rosewood fingerboard radiates class and a pair of chrome DoubleTap™ humbucking pickups draw the eye. Featuring a 24.75” mahogany neck with 22 medium-jumbo frets and a 9.5” radius, 2-point Synchronized Tremolo System, and individual volume and tone controls for each pickup, the Uptown Strat is as versatile as it is unique.
The nitrocellulose lacquer finish lets the body breathe with its true tonal character and also ages and wears in a distinctively personal way. Known for great sustain, punchy mids and full lows, mahogany is an ideal pairing with low-gain humbuckers and short scale necks. This instrument’s modern 9.5” fingerboard radius is slightly more flattened than a vintage-style radius, offering enough arc to provide a natural fret-hand feel.
These versatile vintage-output humbucking pickups feature DoubleTap™ technology for improved single-coil tones when using the coil-split. Superior intonation, sustain, tuning stability, tremolo action and ease of adjustment.
