- In which country was it made?
United States (on the plate: Corona, California ... their new plant)

- How many frets, what kind of micro as well as their configuration?
-> Well enough frets (22)
-> 3 Vintage Noiseless pickups simple

- What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...)?
ben nan or not flyod wilkinson ... a Fender Deluxe (too) flexible lever clicks into place (do not screws)

What type of race?
One piece maple (not reported key), benchmarks abalone

The body is Swamp Ash (Ash). It is an option, White Blonde finish sublime!

Mechanical locking (great!)
Bone nut.
Flawless finish. Box practical and not too large.

UTILIZATION

Handle large half-round and pleasant, it does not tire (except after a set 4:30 ... like the music festival)

without access to acute prob, except for the last 3 box, but I'm not very often ...

legendary ergonomics of strats ...

Sound great, but who may lack a bit of grain ...

SOUNDS

Very, very, very versatile ... we often underestimate its capabilities ....

Use on Fender Stage 100 and Marshall VS65 (soon on a tube amp DIY style Blacface SuperReverb) ... EQ centered, it sounds nickel.

The neck pickup is great (that's why I wanted a strato ...) as well as clear that saturated ...
Intermediate positions are great too ...

OVERALL OPINION

Use for over a year ...
Jadore White Blonde finish ... Mics with more grain would have been more, but hey, let's not quibble.

Paid € 1845 (about 2000 and bananas in the catalog).

Very good choice, which made me grow hugely ... We are rediscovering his game, playing more end, gradually tames the beast, one must know ... and it's great ...
