If you haven’t witnessed H.E.R. live, you’re missing out — she’s a legend in the making. This talented multi-instrumentalist is fast becoming famous for her skilled songwriting, soulful vocals, and slow-burning guitar solos, which are replete with dexterous bends and articulate two-handed tapping. The Fender H.E.R. Stratocaster is inspired by this brilliant lady’s tool of choice, boasting a chrome-covered alder body, comfortable vintage-style neck and fingerboard, and noiseless electronics. The H.E.R. Strat is equally capable of spanky R&B rhythms as it is saturated leads, and its playability is second-to-none. A 6-saddle vintage-style synchronized tremolo rounds out this solidbody electric guitar’s generous features. The H.E.R. Stratocaster includes an attention-grabbing anodized aluminum pickguard and matching headstock.
The H.E.R. Stratocaster is as unique as its namesake. This solidbody electric guitar’s balanced-sounding alder body, which provides a solid tonal foundation for its electronics, boasts a head-turning chrome finish. An anodized aluminum pickguard adds to its visual appeal. A matching headstock completes the look of this eye-catching instrument.
The Fender fanatics here at Music Experience are impressed with the arsenal of tones found in the H.E.R. Stratocaster, by virtue of its Vintage Noiseless pickups. Alnico II magnets and enamel-coated magnet wire, along with Fender's Noiseless Technology, produce a rich vintage Strat sound that is virtually free of buzz and hum, perfect for recording sessions or anytime you're cranking your amplifier up. Each pickup sports a stylish "Noiseless" logo.
The Fender H.E.R. Stratocaster is a treat to play, largely because of its vintage-style neck profile. This is a pleasantly stout neck, and its increased mass yields an incredibly natural feel, as well as excellent sustain. And wait until you experience its fast-playing 9.5-inch-radius fingerboard with vintage-tall frets — bending notes and playing chords high on the neck has never been easier.
Dynamic R&B performer H.E.R. has wooed audiences and earned Grammys with her powerful performances and emotional songs – her smooth rhythms and slow-burning solos always at the forefront. The H.E.R. Stratocaster makes a statement as bold as the artist who inspired it. Finished in dazzling Chrome Glow and featuring a mid-‘60s “C” shape maple neck, Vintage Noiseless™ pickups and an anodized aluminum pickguard, this guitar delivers effortless playability, classic Strat® tone and extraordinary good looks.
The dazzling Chrome Glow finish shines bright over an alder body, a classic Fender tonewood with a balanced sound perfect for almost any genre.
9.5” radius offers easy playability and smooth bending.
One of our most innovative designs, this six-point tremolo offers proper intonation, full adjustability and a wide array of cool vibrato sounds.
These noise-free pickups deliver clear and articulate Strat® tone with the bell-like chime and warmth that made Fender an icon, without the 60-cycle hum typically associated with single-coil pickups.
Exceptionally comfortable, the mid "’60s C"-shaped neck profile is sculpted for a vintage feel—thinner at the first fret, thicker at the twelfth.
This Strat features a custom neck plate engraved for H.E.R.
