I've had a lease ... and nothing has changed still as nickel.
24 frets, 648mm (fork fender), attachment bolt on neck so jeff beck stratocaster, with mechanical reverse head that do not move even the third.
2 doubles and split-screwed right into the body, a long adjustable bridge so ok for a bit below.
Frets not too large and small landmarks chicos. The chamfer to the forearm is typical fender, for those with a sombrero and scratching under the armpit ... not terrible.
Mine is anthracite metallic, very chic, head attached. Crafted in china, very well done.

It was quite expensive for the final time, even when past 600 roros

UTILIZATION

Used since the bottle at 7 wizard I was very surprised by the Stagemaster, because the profile is extra. D end and less than the wizard, and the key is also more rounded.
Mimines ok so small, even by an inch above no problemo.

Razibus string action, remarkable and has not moved in 8 years, and I'm on this 7 in standard tuning with over 60 011 to 52 in seven ... This means the quality of this sleeve.

Compared with the wizard it is more natural, and the guitar sounds more open, less serious than my rg7321 compressed, so the result is more intelligible.

SOUNDS

The neck pickup is extra, I split the coil side handle and slap it very enjoyable to clean / crunch.
I set up a capacitor on the volume, 270picof, and it is a wonder to clarify the lowering of its 2-3 while I'm on a channel HiGain.
The bridge pickup I know, I had a DiMarzio custom7 of 1990 has surprises in my mailbox and I rode him out of curiosity and never touched since it's so good.
Splitted and the two microphones are no background noise but give a delicious grain for blueser and funker.
In short I love it!

OVERALL OPINION

At least 8 years, I've always been very happy with this Stagemaster 7.
It is not even said that the original bridge pickup is average, I remember.

Aging as well with such a string-bending, without artifice (or handle multipart carbon graphite or titanium reinforcement, nothing) speaks volumes about the quality of wood used in manufacturing.

I found a general feeling (strength, varnish) similar to the classic '50s vibe of the brand, and a kingpin of acoustic fender, both made in china. I think they come from the same subcontractor, and its just great news!
