UTILIZATION

This guitar is so weird! It is one of the most bizarre mainstream guitar designs I've seen in a long time, and it is strange to see it coming from Fender now. They've been pretty traditional with guitar designs for quite a while, and this looks like a Jazzmaster and a Mustang got together and had a baby in the back of a pawnshop. The neck plays well, and the guitar balances nicely.

SOUNDS

First of all, what the heck is a triple coil rail pickup? While it may be so bizarre-looking, it is a very clean, compressed sound - incredible for country spank. But with some drive, it sounds excellent for rock leads and riffs. The Jazzmaster pickup has sweet warmth to it as well, and will haunt you with it's angelic sustain.

OVERALL OPINION

This guitar won me over. I saw it, was revolted, then I picked it up. As weird-looking as it is, it is a great player, it is super versatile, and it sounds amazing. I'd pick this guitar for anything except the most technical of metal styles. Nice job, Fender! Keep making weird guitars!
