But in 1983, Fender envisioned a new take on the Stratocaster that was packed with what were cutting-edge, modern features at the time. The Elite Stratocaster boasted active electronics and newly-designed single coil pickups with no visible poles on the top. It sported a fresh-looking tremolo design that required no back cavity for tremolo springs. The intention was to give the guitar more sustain by not routing out additional Alder from the back. The new tremolo design also had a piece covering adjustment screw-heads and a snap-back tremolo arm, so it was sleek and easy to use.
Unlike Strats that came before it, the Elite Stratocaster has push-button selectors for the pickups instead of a slider switch. This unique design allows two additional combinations that you don’t get with a five-way switch: neck and bridge together, and all three at once. For the first time, active electronics introduced the TBX and MDX boosting circuits, which have remained lasting upgrades on special edition Strats. All-in-all, these new ideas gave guitarists sounds and flexibility that wasn’t available on previous Stratocasters.
