Fender have added a couple of new Stratocaster models to their popular Deluxe series,

the Deluxe Lone Star...


 and the Deluxe Roadhouse...



 ...which include some upgraded electronic switching configurations, hardware and large ’70s-style headstock.

The Deluxe Roadhouse Stratocaster has three high-output Texas Special™ pickups and a special V6 rotary switch which delivers six distinctive tone settings from “wiry single-coil to searing lead”, this can be bypassed by the guitar’s built-in S-1 switch. This model also includes a four-ply aged white pearloid pickguard.


The Deluxe Lone Star includes a Fender Twin Head humbucking bridge pickup and an S-1 switch built into the volume knob to select the outer coil of the bridge pickup for single-coil tones.

Each model is available in a range of finishes, so head over to Fender.com to check out the various options.
