Commemorative model celebrating the 50th anniversary of the creation of the Stratocaster.

Based on the Custom Shop model HLE (Homer Haynes Limited Edition) (http://www.stratcollector.com/scn/models/hle.html) made him a very limited series in 1989 for 35 years of Queen Stratocaster, he lists the main characteristics ...



Produced in Mexico from January 2004 to December 2004, it is the high end of production "Chicano" with particular attention due to this limited edition ...

Its quality is far superior to the low or mid-range US!

About its finish, there is nothing wrong, it is exemplary! The patent of the handle is just perfect and the body has no visual defect!

Very nice finish. Special mention for the pickguard vintage anodized alloy a fold! The class "gold" ...

It comes in a Gig Bag Deluxe 50th Anniversary ...

UTILIZATION

The handle: A real treat ... V-shaped, very thick without being a pickaxe handle. Everything passes, thumb on top, jazzy arrangements in the 10 th box, the solos!

An absolute joy!

The body: it stratum with all the comfort and ergonomics that it has ... are there more comfortable in solid body ?????

The gold hardware is simply beautiful and consistent with the model!

The pickups are very nice Alnicos but have given way to one of my beauty kit with Kinman Blues Avt (http://www.kinman.com/html/myProducts/strats.htm Bluesset #): Here, it sends Severe: The Sound Start with the gain, but without any grain 7ender Hum Hum beucoup warmer than the noiseless!!

SOUNDS

I play Blues, Rock and progressive in Floyd, Genesis, etc., and for that, she excels!

I play plugged into Fender Blues Junior and I can tell you that the guitar sings with happiness in all the records ...

All the sounds of strata may be obtained with this combination of Clapton to SRV not going Gilmour, Blackmore ...

What more;)

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this guitar because my old Strat Tie Us to Gilmour (http://monsite.wanadoo.fr/gilmour/index.jhtml) has a handle end, which to date does not suit me more because just too end!

With age, I want more thickness in hand with a draft of 10/46 since my game is less pyrotechnic and more Laid Back!

This guitar is simply that I was looking for his look, his violin, comfort, and spirit Vintage ... It is a real Stratocaster is totally in the spirit of the great Leo ...

With new pickups, it rivals any US serial, no problem!

Oh yes, I paid 450 euro AF;)
