Full Description

Screaming riffs, screaming crowd

Proudly stand out from the crowd. The HM Strat has a winning team of one humbucking pickup positioned at the bridge and two single-coil pickups at the middle and neck. This means you can achieve hot humbucker tones that can be split for more traditional Strat sounds which will send your crowd into overdrive. Make them continue to go wild. The pickup's responsiveness to your playing provides you with a wealth of tonal greatness and flexibility.

The bottom end will track your riffs and licks with immense tight accuracy. You will feel the power of a mid-range that can punch through any mix with ease. And, the highs will release a wicked scream tearing through your stage and audience with precision. With the five-position blade switch, you can indulge in a plethora of metal tones. Once you've made these controls submit to your demands and mastered your tonal variety - nothing can stand in your way. Pummel your way through riffs, slides and licks with absolute ease.

Summon your skills
