Linn Sondek « Good! »
Published on 06/02/13 at 05:53U.S. manufacturing.
Vintage vibrato bridge but factory, Clapton blocked not only by serving.
3 Fender Vintage Noiseless pickups.
1 volume, 1 tone with TBX and active control swelling mediums and producing a sound between single and double coil.
Handle big enough (I'm surprised at the description of the previous opinion) deeper than an American Standard or American Series New. I do not know what it is in comparison to the round of New American Standard.
Very thin frets, vintage type.
Comes in a beautiful bag, tweed finish with jack and strap. The tremolo, unmounted, is present.
UTILIZATION
I never managed to make me totally neck profile and if these fine frets.
Classic ergonomics for Strat, that is to say, perfect! Access to acute is more than easy.
The sound palette offered by this guitar is very broad and versatile. The presence of a TBX on the single tone knob and an active control on the last knob gives many combinations. With this active boost, sustain and is therefore close to what can be achieved with a good humbucker.
Noiseless pickups are very good even though I've always found it lacked a bit of character. The advantage of such microphones is the lack of noise in the neck position, middle or bridge alone. Their presence is necessitated by the existence of Boost is inevitably noise generator.
SOUNDS
All kinds of sounds are allowed. Clean the lens (accentuated by the kit Noiseless) to large distortion inflated by active boost, this Strat can do everything. It is perhaps the most versatile Fender catalog.
OVERALL OPINION
I used more or less, this guitar for 8 years. But in the end, it was the Strat I played the least. We never managed to hear properly, the fault of the neck profile and ultra-thin frets that intonation does not really satisfy me. I liked so much my American Standard, or even more, my American Series Strat.
But it is a very good guitar.
