The exact model is "American Vintage 1957 Commemorative Stratocaster ®".
Made in the U.S..
21 frets, 3 single american vintage microphones.
Channel V.
Mechanical and bridge type 50s.
Etc ...
On the goodies, we note the mechanical golden and transparent white varnish through which we see the wood grain.
The selector has 3 positions (at the time but you can nab the two intermediate position), a 5-way switch is supplied with.
It's really a beautiful guitar.
UTILIZATION
_Manche / Access to acute / ergonomics: it's a Start, so really well.
The varnish is that it is super soft on the body or the handle is very nice.
What is also surprising is the weight of the guitar extremely light.
SOUNDS
This guitar has the sound typical of the strata as we like. It's amazing and it's a great pleasure immediately. Sound to the Dire Straits / Pink Floyd / Eric Johnson.
She is beautiful in its clear and crunch. It suitable for blues / country / rock / rock style current English. It is not great with the big distos, so for hard rock and metal, it's really not like that (but who will buy this guitar for that type of music?).
A twin with a TS9 is huge. Even the marshals oriented rock (TSL) makes it really good.
I have 3 other Stratocasters, and by making friends listen to music lovers, but who know nothing about guitar, they heard the direct difference. It sounds of thunder.
Last but not the least importance, the pickups are surprisingly quiet.
OVERALL OPINION
I love this guitar is probably the best Start I ever played in this price range (with the signature eric johnson). If you seek his typical stratocaster is this guitar for you (or Johnson).
The quality / price is not bad, especially if you buy in Germany. It is still more expensive than 500euros american deluxe, which I think is exaggerated. Plus: this model will be produced in 2007, making it fast a rarity.
Do you like the sound strat you do not play hard or metal? this guitar is probably one of the best choices in the market. To buy without hesitation.
