Yosemite Pickup Technology

The Yosemite single-coil pickups are a standout feature of the American Performer series. These pickups feature flat-staggered pole pieces for balanced output across all strings, delivering rich, expressive tone with excellent clarity. From clean jazz to overdriven rock, these pickups respond to your touch with dynamic sensitivity and authentic Stratocaster character.

Arctic White Finish

The Arctic White finish is clean, classic, and timeless - a crisp white that looks stunning on stage or in the studio. This professional finish has graced countless iconic Stratocasters and provides a blank canvas that works with any musical style. The gloss polyester finish protects the alder body while allowing it to resonate naturally.

Greasebucket Tone Circuit

The Greasebucket tone circuit is a unique Fender innovation that sets the American Performer apart. Unlike traditional tone controls that lose gain and clarity as you roll them off, the Greasebucket circuit removes highs while preserving your sound's dynamics and presence. It's a subtle but powerful feature that expands your tonal palette.

Modern Playability

The Modern C neck profile is comfortable and versatile - perfect for players of all styles and hand sizes. The satin finish on the back of the neck provides smooth, friction-free movement, while the 22 jumbo frets and 9.5" radius fingerboard make bending and chording effortless. This guitar is built for players who demand comfort and performance.
