New From Fender - Special Models

The Floyd Rose Classic HSS and The Floyd Rose Classic HH

July 10, 1998 -- For players who want to access a wide variety of extreme tones, Fender introduces the new Floyd Rose® Classic HSS and Floyd Rose® Classic HH. Both guitars feature the original Floyd Rose® locking tremolo plus newly designed Fender humbucking pickups.

The HSS model has two Fender American Standard single coils in the neck and middle positions and one Fender DH-1(TM) Humbucker in the bridge. The DH-1's magnetic pole pieces are Fender-spaced for proper string balance. The HH model beefs it up with a double dose of Fender DH-1 Humbuckers in the bridge and neck positions, combined with special 5-way switching that offers a wide array of fat humbucker and cutting single-coil tones.

Both guitars feature: alder body, one-piece maple neck-, rosewood or maple fingerboard; 22 medium-jumbo frets, vintage machine heads; white/black/white pickguard; one master volume and two tone controls; and classic black Tolex® Fender case. Comes factory-equipped with genuine Fender strings for optimum tone and performance.
