It gives root beer its signature taste. And it makes a mean guitar body that looks and sounds a lot like swamp ash. But sassafras isn’t new to Fender after all. During the 1950s, the company built more than a handful of vintage bodies from sassafras, and most players thought it was swamp ash the whole time! When tonewood connoisseurs listen closely, they notice sassafras also display alder-like traits, so it’s not entirely the doppelganger of ash. No matter how you view the tone, sassafras is in good company when it’s so often compared to classic Fender tonewoods. Enjoy a fun, innovative, and sassy twist on classic resonance when you choose sassafras. Expect workhorse versatility, balanced sustain, and impressive harmonic qualities. Acclaimed American-made quality Fender’s American Performer series exists to do one thing: to give you a genuine US-made Fender at an unbeatable price. The American Performer Stratocaster retains a selection of cool Strat features, including a supremely playable maple neck and a rosewood fingerboard, jumbo frets, Yosemite pickups, and Fender’s innovative Greasebucket tone control. All in all, it’s quite a potent music-delivery system. And it’s made right here in the USA, in Fender’s state-of-the-art Corona, California, factory.Vintage-tinged tone with higher output and modern wiring This Strat’s Yosemite single-coil pickups vintage tonal balance and amp-pushing punch at the same time. Flat-staggered pole pieces give each string a vintage-tinged attack, while a blend of Alnico IV and Alnico V magnets boost output for more aggressive single-coil output. These elements give the Yosemite more dynamic range when the rubber meets the road, and guitarists at Sweetwater find themselves better equipped to make musical adjustments via their volume knob while performing. Greasebucket tone control rolls off highs without adding bass Fender has fitted the American Performer Stratocaster with its Greasebucket tone control, which rolls off highs without adding bass or affecting your volume. This is noteworthy because it gives you explicit control over your tone onstage without having to compensate for volume loss, making the American Performer Strat a serious tone machine.Prep for the future and honor traditions with Timber innovations Instrument manufacturers typically turn to the same tonewoods they’ve relied on for decades (centuries in some cases). After all, why change when you know that a particular wood performs well? But times have indeed changed with the modern challenges of availability and sustainability. Fender faced these concerns when an invasive beetle species recently decimated the supply of instrument-grade ash in North America. As another testament to the company’s penchant for innovation, Fender has identified select alternative tonewoods that are liable to become your new favorite. Spruce, sassafras, and roasted pine are just a sampling of the tantalizing tonewoods we’ve seen used for the Timber series instruments.
