New Yosemite Pickups: Handcrafted in Corona, California, Yosemite single-coil pickups are specifically voiced for each instrument and position to create sonically versatile and musically useful sounds. 

New ClassicGear Tuning Machines: Combining vintage style with a modern 18:1 gear ratio, the ClassicGear tuning machines have smooth action and make it easer to fine-tune your instrument.

Jumbo Frets: Jumbo frets make it easier to achieve wide, expressive bends that add your personal touch to your music. 

Push-Pull Potentiometer: The push-pull pot activates the neck pickup, letting you access neck/bridge and "all on" combinations with a simple finger flick. 

Satin-Finished Neck: Featuring a "Modern C"-shaped profile that works well with almost any playing style, the neck also hosts a satin finish on the back, giving it a smooth, fast playing feel. 

Greasebucket Tone System: This uniquely Fender tone system lets you cut treble without losing gain or "muddying" your sound, preserving your carefully shaped tone.
