All user reviews for the Fender Custom Shop David Gilmour Signature Relic Stratocaster

Beautiful violin is very good fender custom shop. The neck is thin and it is a wonder to play, it sounds everywhere it's velvet and I'm not a big fan of the sleeves end but now I love it. and I'm not even a fan of Gilmour. I bought a big favorite.

UTILIZATION

nothing wrong, it is a marvel ...

SOUNDS

Then her ... this is huge. It is accurate and powerful and the split which allows for the bridge pickup and the neck pickup at the same time opens up new horizons. what I love is that it has vintage and modern sounds with the same instrument is a Swiss Army knife that guitar.

OVERALL OPINION

I CAN BE USED every day and it's up this guitar even if you are not a fan of Gilmour and I tried a bunch of custom shop, you can ask my mother and my wife ...
I love playing on my other custom shop but whenever I replay my Gilmour is like a christmas morning ... it sounds serious, it is not the prettiest but what it is sending and the most important ... short, it is really a shovel hell!

Stratocaster David Gilmour Relic Strat Black Damaged banal currently not very seller a little heavier that signing such a strat or Mark Knopfler Eric Johnson and then I branch '.......

UTILIZATION

Ok you change class in addition to being a fan is found immediately without forcing Gilmour sound and when the power is incredible handle super fine, very smooth, very pleasant soft key is not force ... what is particular that is all means spend all notes, no lack of sustain sound is "boosted" in the treble and the bass is the "acute severe" David my sharp aggressive but effective . We feel the quality in this guitar is feeling the years of work it took to optenir a setting so perfect and above all is selected, the settings, string height handle, adjustable vibrato, which allows perfect agreement on the last 2 treble strings (rhythmic song "Time") or "Money"

SOUNDS

The clear décoiffe the secret of "Shine on you Crazy Diamond" is finally revealed
After it connects a Big Muff sweetened with a flanger, delay and is confortably Numb

UTILIZATION

-The handle is bliss, round while still being fast, everything I love! It approaches the 60's at Gibs! Gilmour has had numerous run before reaching this one is a handle of Fender 57 '. The hit is also great, the best neck I hit mapple!

-In terms of weight, it is a bit heavier than a Start classic, or a great sustain all that disconnect plug elsewhere. For access to the treble, there is a strat so we know!

-The "mini" Vibrato is great practice is clear, what I like! No need to send in any sense for it to take effect! The

SOUNDS

was really the main point of this guitar! (I play on Mesa)
The three microphones that have been chosen by David after many test are just super! I have not yet tested through too, was not necessarily a fan of this site!
The neck pickup is amazing, pure Gilmour on his solo, compressor and delay, and it was the sound of Numb confortably without any difficulty!
The bridge has Seymour sounds really different, we can start on a Hard Rock smoothly and without buzz or breath! GENIAL! With this guitar with knobs was a tremendous versatility! And I know what I mean, I have a 513! There was some grain, but TV and more powerful! And with the volume pot found at once the classic Start sound
I must also mention the Switch, which allows for example to have the bridge pickup and neck at the same time!
Really to bring the sound of Gilmour's solos, and what brings even more versatility, more than this little guitar that changes everything!

OVERALL OPINION

I've had it yesterday, I played for 10 h to show its limits ... It has not ...
I am a big fan of Gilmour at the base, but I tried 5 custom shop before prendre.Et is really the one that was made for me! That's what I was looking for years a stratum and that I have ever had! The first one I'm sure to keep and get on tour!
She has the mouth, micro and small full of thing that make it unique from other strat!

For the price some would say "you must be a fan," but I disagree, it can do so many things that appeal to both a fan of Clapton as Kirk Hammet xD

I would do without the choice problem! Because it is unique and special! The general custom shop! Except forget the key box, but I never close ... But hey, this is the default one! A master piece
