This Classic S ST HSS is a seriously well-built instrument. The hum suppression is a game-changer, and the Suhr pickups offer a great blend of vintage chime and modern bite. It's ideal for players who love a classic Strat feel with improved hum rejection and a hotter bridge pickup for more aggressive tones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Unlike coil-splitting or tap systems, SSCII provides silent operation without altering the pickup's inherent tonal character; it’s a true, transparent solution.
The '60s C profile is relatively slim, but the .930" thickness at the heel provides a secure grip, generally accommodating a range of hand sizes.
The Gotoh trem offers improved stability and smoother action compared to many vintage Fender units, minimizing tuning issues.
