Fender HM Strat 1989, Redstone

This 1989 Fender HM Strat is peak late-'80s shred machine! Fender's answer to the superstrat era, built with a Floyd Rose locking tremolo, HSS pickup configuration, and a fast, flat neck designed for serious speed rather than vintage twang. The Redstone finish deserves its own mention too: a striking color that was one of the more eye-catching options Fender offered on these, and it still turns heads today the same way it would have on a stage in 1989. HM Strats have become genuinely collectible in recent years as players rediscover just how well-built and fun these late-'80s Fenders are to play, offering a completely different experience from a standard Strat. This is a fantastic, characterful piece of Fender's most aggressive era, ready to dive-bomb straight out of the case.
