I have recently been given a Highway One in olympic white. It is SSS three single coil made in USA.

Where the hell did this guitar come from? I cant find any info online. I searched on ebay for a value, but there has never been one sold on ebay or ever been listed. Even a google search only throws up one shop in USA and its always out of stock.

Any help with regards to specs and it's value would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

It is a very popular but now discontinued model. It was sort of replaced with the American Special series.

Add the word "strat" to the end of your google search of "highway one" (highway one strat). You'll have more material to read and pictures to look at than you'll have time for.

Guitar Center used to have a white sss and a white hss exclusive. I played the hss it was actually the special. The sss came with a white pickguard and a maple neck. The hss was the black pickguard and rosewood fingerboard.

The FSR Olympic White US Special SSS Strat had tons of Voodoo vibe! :D

This is not a Highway One but an FSR American Special commissioned by Guitar Center.

They should have kept this one and in humbucker with rosewood too. Also a black model just like it with maple and singles.
I got a highway 1 sunburst humbucker model. I put a pearl white lone star pickguard and dimarzio evolution in and a blade runner with locking tuners and graph tech nut. These really remind me of my old 76 strat.
