Q_ « Wow »
Published on 07/29/14 at 06:20made in USA, in the original Fender factory in Fullerton (before moving to Corona). Mine is 83 (the fullerton are made between 82 and 84)
UTILIZATION
Handle (C) the most enjoyable I've ever met, ultrathin. Light guitar. o
You plug it sounds with character.
SOUNDS
Beautiful crystal clear sound, the neck pickup is a delight. Crunch is monstrous, one pushing the OD is rock and it sends. Tested on different tube amps, always sublime.
OVERALL OPINION
Used for 1 year, I wanted a nice strat also without the means to take a L and I tried a bunch. When I had it in hand I realized that I was going to take it.
They do not make the 62 reissue Fender 65 but that should be pretty close in spec.
The "fullerton" is for little more expensive than the current reissue except that it is the first reissue (it is said that at the time they went to look for retired workers to make them exactly as in 62, same technique , even builders), they have over 30 years which gives them a good head and suddenly it's not the same mojo ....
