A sound to remember
Versatility is second nature to the Uptown Strat. Blending only the most supreme, modern elements and expert craftsmanship, you can achieve a pure sound that will cut through the noise. DoubleTap humbucking pickups at the bridge and neck capture your killer sound and emit a thick, throaty tone in humbucking mode or a split-coil sound that articulates definition and expression. And, thanks to the unique design, you won't experience any volume loss between these modes or any unwanted feedback.
Showcase your abilities and make people listen. Equipped with a 2-point Synchronized Tremolo System, the Uptown Strat knows no limits. Hailed by musicians as the whammy bar that can handle your abuse, this tremolo system adds dynamics and wavering depth. You'll become addicted to the way your audience reacts to this vibrato. Whether you're unleashing screeching dive bombs, giving your solo that extra kick, or simply decorating your chords with some elegant shimmer – this famed addition will give you the platform to experiment. Ensure that you leave the stage having made a huge impact.
