JFKowalski « Excellent 70's Stratocaster »
Published on 11/30/13 at 15:21Important elements:

- Body: Ash
- Varnish: polyurethane
- Neck: Bolt-on Maple
- Fingerboard: Maple
- Profile of handle: U
- Fixing of shaft: 3 screws with Micro-Tilt
- Frets: 21 Vintage Style
- Radius: 7.25 "
- Nut: Synthetic Bone
- Pickups: 3 single-coil Fender Vintage Style Single-Coil Strat Alnico 5 Magnets
- Bridge: Vintage Style Synchronized Tremolo Fender
- Tuners: Fender F Style
- Accessories: delivered in case Fender Deluxe Black Hardshell Case (orange inside!)
UTILIZATION
Stratocaster whose body is ash: 3.250kg on the balance ... rather reasonable for a 70s replica!
This is not a nitro lacquer but the poly is applied and finishes are nickels.
The handle "U" and the maple fingerboard provide comfort exemplary game and allows a quick game.
The bridge, once properly set is perfect: it does not move despite some abuse the tremolo.
Little detail on mine: the body is made in one piece. Veining is superb.
SOUNDS
A decidedly wild and aggressive guitar overdriven sounds. Amateurs R. Blackmore, you will be served!
The pickups are totally in the 70s mind ... sharp for the blues-rock / hard rock.
In clean, she graduated with honors. Bass more present than on a Strat "60s" and a bit more gain but it is no problem if you know how to use the volume knob.
Mine was equipped with a 5-way switch. No complaints.
OVERALL OPINION
It makes little time I have received at home but it has its place already now the wall ... and for a moment I think! It perfectly complements my '61 Strat equipped with Lollar Blonde, which itself sounds decidedly blues.
70s are also doing well in the register but she excels in styles a little more "couillus"
Price a little high nine but it becomes quite reasonable opportunity.
