The Fender Cyclone is an electric guitar made by Fender. Introduced in late 1997, the Cyclone body is similarly styled to the Mustang but with a significantly different specification.
The Cyclone has a scale of 24.75 inches, the same as a Gibson Les Paul but an unusual intermediate size for Fender, and a Stratocaster style synchronized tremolo.
The original Cyclone uses a Fender Atomic Humbucker in the bridge, a Tex-Mex pickup in the neck position, and a conventional pickup selector switch.
As of 2006 the range included the original Cyclone, the Cyclone HH with two humbuckers, and the Fender Cyclone II with three MIA Jaguar pickups controlled by on-off switches in place of the selector switch.
