Now at Best Buy: Fender Stratocaster HSS Plus with iOS Connectivity

0

It was really only a matter of time before Fender would introduce USB connectivity to their Stratocaster line.  Why would you want to have a USB port on your guitar?     It really comes down to convenience. By putting a small USB port (and an A/D converter) in your guitar, the guitar signal is digitized locally and then transmitted to your computer (or other device) over a USB cable.   The guitar retains all its standard analog capabilities BUT outputs to USB as well.

Day 2 will be a test to see if my hunches here are correct and to see if there are any other trends emerging.
