This all original 2016 Fender American Standard Stratocaster in Olympic White is a killer example from the final year of production before Fender transitioned to the American Professional series.one owner from new smoke free use only comes with original case and full case candy
This model came with a full set of Custom Shop FAT ’50s pickups as stock, delivering the vintage chime, warmth, and mid-scooped clarity that players love, while retaining the rock-solid build and reliability that made the American Standard line a go-to for working musicians.
The body is alder, finished in Olympic White with a subtle aged tint that’s starting to mellow beautifully toward cream. The neck is maple with a modern “C” profile—comfortable and familiar without being too slim or chunky. It’s topped with a dark rosewood fingerboard with a 9.5” radius and 22 medium-jumbo frets. Nut width measures 1.6875”, and the scale length is the classic Fender 25.5”. The frets have been dressed and polished, and there’s minimal wear overall—just honest signs of use.
The Custom Shop FAT ’50s pickups are balanced and articulate, measuring 6.1k in the neck, 6.3k in the middle, and 6.4k at the bridge. The neck pickup is round and warm, the middle delivers that glassy Strat quack, and the bridge has plenty of punch without getting too harsh. The stock five-way selector and traditional Strat controls (master volume, two tones) keep it simple and familiar.
This one’s been set up with 9-42s, and the tremolo has been set flat for enhanced tuning stability and resonance. The hardware is all original and in great shape with light patina. It weighs in at 7 lbs 8 oz—comfortable on a strap and perfectly balanced. Comes with the original molded Fender hardshell case, trem arm, and all the original case candy.
If you’re looking for a Strat that blends vintage tone with modern feel, and you like the idea of having Custom Shop pickups without the Custom Shop price tag, this one’s a no-brainer. Plays clean, sounds huge, and looks the part.
