UTILIZATION
The neck is super enjoyable, you can quickly and trs dplacer fawn enjoyable. In terms of weight and quilibrage guitar, there's nothing to say. You can play sitting upright, it does not slip, it is not dsquilibre. It is frankly enjoyable.
The access to acute is extremely easy. The pearl back offer also an enjoyable touch. The sound is easily RULES. It can switch and the knobs of the rglant Tone scan style from jazz, funk, blues, rock, reggea, pop, rock and metal.
For a full potential is a tube amp, however, calls.
SOUNDS
I play blues / jazz / funk and it suits me perfectly. The range of the scans is important trs, so we can adjust the sound that toujorus DSIR.
J'obtient with the neck pickup instead of the Bleusy for accompaniment or rhythmic. By switching gives more depth in the low and medium. Passing on the neck pickup and the middle one is in funky shades perfect for side dishes. The middle pickup is very good for crunchy sounds by switchan is put into the series of three micro fender. The sound is rich in particular square as treble and bass. This sound is a paticulier this type of guitar, since I am not aware of this type of sound with a Gibson or a PRS or even other brand.
I use a H & K amp modeling has Zenter lamps. With a cry baby and Morley Wha Volume.
All sounds are usable only BMOL, the bridge pickup with distortion, lack of energy, even with switch.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 6 years now. I try Gibson, PRS, Ibanez of signatures, and lag is by far the one that surprised me the most because of its versatility and its combination of sound microphone. I love the posibilit to switch microphones.
The report quality price celon me correct, it is a professional tool that fits perfectly to all types of music, while keeping in mind Fender Start. I would do without this choice hsiter.See less20 - iamqman

I love the tone of the Fender Stratocaster because it meets every demand that I'm looking for in a guitar instrument. It has the right balance, feeling, and tone for the needs that I have. Pretty much any setting that I put it in, it feels good and compliments the current rig or setting. Whether I'm using a load of effects on the floorboard with pedal boards or effects or a clean amplifier to a high gain amplifier Fender Stratocaster will complement anything that I put it in. It's a kind of chameleon type guitar because it adapts to its environment quite well. The tone is lush focused and smooth, and that's probably why I really dig the character in the vibe of this instrument.
OVERALL OPINION
You can find these guitars for right around $1500 or so in the new market. They hold their value quite well so I would suggest picking one up on the used's market if you can find a good price. They are a great for recording and I highly recommend every guitar player on the planet to own at least one Fender Stratocaster at some point in their career.See less00 - iamqman

SOUNDS
I really love the tone of this guitar primarily because it has a great feel and a great voicing for most music. It is extremely versatile and can branch across genre to genre of musical styles. They have a great feel to them especially when you use the neck pick up. He did a really soulful, bluesy tone that nixes very well in many pop and rock music. These guitars just has that "It" factor about them. I think it may be one of the selling points and guitars is this perfect balance and alignment.
OVERALL OPINION
These guitar you can find in a used in classified sections of many forums online and in many retailers around the world. After not very hard to find if you have any kind of musical retailer in your town. You can find a new pretty easily as well and just depends on which color you prefer. At new you can find these guitars for right at around $1650. A little bit higher than some o the other models but these have a certain more balanced feel in my hands than the standard series.See less00 - van halen vaughanPublished on 08/15/06 at 10:36 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Fender Stratocaster of origin United States

Having already an alder guitar I have chosen the "option ash" which has a role in the sound of a key guitare.Combine maple sound vacuum is much more than that of slamming a standard strat alder, bass are much more defined sound and is more medium and less crystalline persussif
connects an ENGL screamer 50, clear sound the microphone is very powerful grave which is interesting for heavy distortion for expressive solos blues that brings a sin that n has not alder strats interdemediaires positions are excellent for classical and the loose funk, the bridge is very powerful pickups with high definition even with the saturation of the 4 th channel ENGL
THE GRAVE MICROS s collapses in saturation do not you jump to the lower throat and beautiful mediums
hardwire switch coils in series the output level is then increased the high register and sound weakens s rounder
OVERALL OPINION
This model is a true success, an instrument with great personality of beautiful finishes that will give full satisfaction to fans of the strata, but wanting to sound more like spice in the Texas blues (Stevie Ray Vaughan kind you know structurally sound with bass) , watch out its not really a versatile switch that allows for variations s stamp will not replace a double if you are more attempts by the hard, metal ... keep your les paul
c is for me at all I would do good, and that choice without hesitation I drop my bill because it will not suit everyoneSee less00 - philippe montpPublished on 11/30/06 at 00:15 (This content has been automatically translated from French)As said prcdement Amrican deluxe ash stratocaster, tobaco sunburst.

UTILIZATION
- The handle is it fun?
The neck is awesome! Absolute comfort! A satin-smooth and without constraints on the go. It is immediately comfortable on it.
- Access to acute (recent freight) is it easy?
With the heel of the neck profile, access to acute is transparent. From first to last fret the grip is perfect.
- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
The ergonomics of the body of strata is the best for me, so no surprise on this point as a bonus with the heel section, which provides most notable solo.
With a very dense wood, the beast weighs weight. This is an advantage to sustain. As against the back weak or tired prefer to play seated.
- Gets it easy to sound good?
Taking only hand the handle is very comfortable (neither too thin nor too fat), the radius being standard and having jumbo frets, the sound is good to go from the first shot picks. It quickly becomes a delight to sing the microphones that requires only that!
I put 10 because it exactly meets my expectations.
SOUNDS
- They are suitable to your style of music?
I have no real style of music.
I like to play that pleases my ears according to my mood.
I do not have the budget to change depending on the guitar style of song I want to make the best choice was the Start.
Known for its versatility and ease of playing, she is at ease in many style.
With the switch S-1 (for combining the three single coils in parallel or in series), versatility is increased. I still want to point out that to put three pickups in series will not replace a humbucker, but the sound and approach it with me. But this switch gives very good results.
- With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
I play primarily on a Line 6 Toneport (equivalent PC Pod xt) returned on speakers 2x12 "or monitors, but also a Marshall VS30R. I was also able to try it on a Fender HotRod, a Blues Junior and a Peavey Classic 30.
I like the Toneport for its diversity (and Noiseless pickups make good service in an environment full of parasites: Parasites no result and grain Fender is here!)
And convenient to store and play with headphones.
on the other hand, my fair gives its full potential on a HotRod (it's magic, but my neighbors will not support), so perhaps I will opt for the Blues Junior is more reasonable power and sounds great.
- What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
Lens at will. The switch S-1 adds roundness.
- What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
I crack in the bridge position and center intermediate position with and without bridge + switch S1. This slamming his typical stratum. With the switch, we get a slight crunch takes its natural value with good effects (reverb tite light or a short analog delay, a distortion such as "Rat" without too much gain).
I put 9 because I expected a little more of the switch S-1.
OVERALL OPINION
- How long have you use it?
I use it for one month, after playing a Mexican Standard Stratocaster for 5 years.
- What is so special that you like most and least?
Likes:
- Start the sound found on a lot of music
- Ease of play
- Versatility, but his identity
- The perfect finish
- Color (this beautiful gradation from red to yellow varnish while transparency) Pearloid pickguard and back plate, and vintage white button and micro
- The marriage of legend and modernity
- Have you tried many other models before buying it?
- Clapton Signature: typed too
- American Standard 60th anniversary: good sound, but no mechanical lock, no noiseless, no precise vibrato, no stub shaft profile, less careful finish compared to the deluxe
- American Vintage Reissue Stratocaster 62: His vintage, but also the disadvantages of the vintage: microphones parasitized, mechanical and bridges subject to an ongoing and misadjustment nitrocellulose varnish of beauty, but requires proper care, and, if the guitar poorly watched in fact a vintage ugly.
- How would you rate the quality / price?
Some say it is expensive.
It costs money, but I find that the investment is worth it. The fittings, wood, finish, the attention on finishing the race, electronics assembly and amply justify the price. I prefer to € 1800 in this guitar rather than a € 1800 vintage. I think she will go ages without showing any signs of old age.
- With experience, you do again this choice? ...
An American Fender Start with no compromise!
The deluxe version is the link between the legend and modern stratocaster is expected of a guitar today. I do it again this choice in a heartbeat.See less10 - BruthaurPublished on 11/23/07 at 17:08 (This content has been automatically translated from French)This is an American

we get easily a good sound, fortunately for this price!
Cons: The foam knobs that are truly outrageous!
9 / 10 for the latter, if anything was wrong that's fine.
SOUNDS
I remade my opinion to a more neutral point of view after 2 years of use:
for general: it is a good guitar for the clear, but not the big crunch Satus ...
I play mostly on a JVM 410, but also a Valvestate, and I tried a 5150 II, ENGL combo and an old fender a lamp (no idea the model)
By clean is very beautiful, we recognize the sound dessuite fender. the 5-way switch allows for either the crystal-clear, (positions 2 and 4), heat (race), the screaming (bridge) and round (midlle). it's really good and effective. The S1 allows a wider range, we can approach the genre's Pink Floyd The Wall supersticious or Stevie Wonder. in general, boost the signal, so difference in volume required. So all in very good clean
In crunch, ca does too. Easy to get a-kind-M-or red hot, with what is behind of course. the rhythms are very pleasant to do as much as listen. all positions are usable, it is my favorite channel (the rhythm is the "memory of the future" live, a clean overboosted with a slight gain, round and drooling).
In saturation, let's be clear that's not it. it helps to rock nice, but forget the Giant Peach is not a H / S / S. AC will still be audible as long as there is not too much gain. it is best to change scratch for power chords, even if it goes well. it is nevertheless a good banging chorus, with good pedal to boost ca all this does it well, good sustain, good offense is cool.
Summary: excellent in clean and crunch, not for the big distos with large rhythmic but great for solos with what it takes to Bosst the distto, otherwise the sound becomes nasal
9 / 10 for the lack of fishing but I knew the purchase
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 2 years, I redid my opinion that was not really fair
I tried a lot of models, TV or strata, but this one I liked for its handle, its versatility (5 positions + S1) and his beautiful mouth breathing quality.
I like its clean and crunch, the feeling that it brings (to compensate for the lack of fishing is thought of more simple melody and variation of pace and attack), its good agreement, without being precise vibrato nag The look, the sustain.
I do not like the knobs of shit, the lack of consistency in fishing and disto
Finally, I use it for funk, blues and soft rock that does not require a big sound. ca for it fulfills its role very well, it's a great value.
I would do without hesitation that choice, it really brings something to the user.
9 / 10 for the slight gap, but the guitar is not perfect!See less21 - iamqman
Better with alder

SOUNDS
I love the look of the three tone sunburst Fender Strat. These guitars do not change from any other Fender Stratocaster that anyone has ever played. This guitar will work in any environment. If you have played one American Fender Stratocaster than you know exactly how one sounds. The tone of this guitar is exquisite.
They sound good with Fender amps , with Mesa Boogie amp as well as they with any Marshall. They sound just flat out amazing to me. There isn't too much variation of tone between Strats. They either sound like a Stratocatser or they sound like a Telecatser. You can definitely hear the difference. Something to be said about the original and you can get boutique all you want but the Fender Strat is still a staple in rock music. So the 50th Anny is a cool way to remember the first original rock guitar master.
OVERALL OPINION
At new these guitars come in right at around $1600, which is a great price for a guitar that is built in America. This guitar just screams to be played and played hard. You can a great sounding guitar for under $2000 and many places online will include free shipping and depending on where you live you can get no tax which is even better. I highly recommend this guitar to anyone flirting with the idea of getting an American classic deluxe built guitar. It is a one high performance machine.See less00 - Hatsubai
Bigger low end
Published on 08/16/11 at 18:19While alder is their main wood that Fender likes to use, they're also known for their ash bodies. The ash bodies bring a different flavor to the table that none of the other strats seem to have. This guitar has an ash body with a one piece maple neck, 22 frets, two point tremolo, three single coil configuration, one volume, two tones and a five way switch.
UTILIZATION
The major issue this guitar had was that the nut needed to be reshaped a bit. There was a buzzing on the g string that wouldn't go away no matter what angle the string was at.

UTILIZATION
The major issue this guitar had was that the nut needed to be reshaped a bit. There was a buzzing on the g string that wouldn't go away no matter what angle the string was at. Some work with my nut files fixed that bit up, but it's just something to keep in mind. The frets on this were pretty good without too many issues. They were a touch flat, but they were nice and even. The ends were also rounded, so they don't cut your hand every time you go up and down the neck.
SOUNDS
The first thing I should mention is that ash bodied guitars tend to have extended lows and highs. This can work out nicely with strats at times, but it can also make them too bright if you have the wrong pickups in it. This had the Fender SCN pickups in it, and they were great. The bridge was super powerful and fat sounding, but it had enough treble to cut. The neck got an awesome vowely/bubbly lead tone going on, and the in-between positions were awesome for that quack sound. However, they're not terribly dynamic, so low gain guys might not enjoy them.
OVERALL OPINION
The ash bodied version of this guitar has more bass and more high end. It gives you a fatter sound, but it also allows you to cut more. Some people really like this, and some dislike it. In reality, you just gotta play it and see how much you like it yourself. I also find them to be a tad heavier than normal alder bodied strats, so keep that in mind.See less00 - iamqman
Dr. Feelgood!!!
Published on 08/08/11 at 22:25This is one American classic guitar. These guitars are some the best Fender Stratocasters that has come out of Southern California in a while. The feel and tone of these guitars simply go back to the days when they were more a custom single piece guitars then what they have grown into today.
This is basically the same guitar Mick Mars from Motley Crue uses on his touring stage. His of course has a Floyd Rose bridge so he can pull of those insane whammy squeals. However, the color scheme and everything looks about the same. I am a fan of Mick so I immediately recognized this guitar.

SOUNDS
I personally love the way this guitar brings back the simplicity of the electric guitar. Not a bunch of options on this guitar, but just the simple way the Leo intended it to be. These guitars will go well with any amp you play them in. I love the way the fat Strat sits with a good Marshall style amp or even a Fender Bassman. I dig the tone the the voicing of those amps and they are a perfect match to this guitar. Whatever you style of music may be this guitar can easily fit into your playing style. Even though it has single coil pickups in it you get still get a great beefy tone with the right amp or distortion pedal at your feet.
OVERALL OPINION
At new I have seen these guitars go for around $870. That is about the right price for an American made fender. There are a lot of bells and whistles on this guitar but just a simple volume and a couple tone knobs to go along with a pickup selector.See less00 - nareckerPublished on 06/18/07 at 14:54 (This content has been automatically translated from French)- In which country was it made?

UTILIZATION
- The handle is it fun?
the case to say! Even with small mimine (which is my case!) The handle is extremely comfortable and very easy to jouer.Et that little varnish on the handle ... happiness I tell you my children!
- Access to acute (recent freight) is it easy?
Asymmetrical heel provides easy access to aigus.je have not encountered any trouble to play the last fret.
- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
Start a heavy enough it is still lighter than a LP.
In terms of form, is a strat bah what! Access to the knobs is easy (to you the joys of young padawan violoning!) The system S-1 could not be easier to use and the micro switch is also easily accessible.
- Gets it easy to sound good? ...
see after ....
SOUNDS
Then it's heavy. The VERY HEAVY!
I is not well defined style that I play a little with my envies.Je played on a Marshall 75 reverb (old amp transistor) with a wah wah ptite of his store in between.
Once connected to a whole world! An ultra slamming his pickup defined, well and bluesy neck pickup. AND WHAT HER! The body of the animal vibrates chaqune solicitations of his torturer (me: p) it is subjected, it alone, she cries, we do not play: they caress, she speaks she answers .... it's magic .... I take me a little!
The sound is so characteristic of the stratum. Intervene now the new system S-1: far from being a gadget it provides completely different microphone configurations and turns clear sound. Moving from a slamming of the single coil to humbucker type sound (I did say "type humbucker" is not an LP eh). The possibilities offered by the S-1 to 10 are the possible configurations of microphones.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to get a bad sound of this guitar ... simply.
Even if the "quality" of a sound is very subjective (same total) can only recognize and be impressed by this guitar.Du clean to make you cry in his crunchy Péchu well, it sends the matron!
It is a feverish hand, copra dripping sweat and glassy eye I imagine it could give an amp in its height (with beautiful lamps that shine, yum) ...
NB: For those wanting the Norvegian thrash metal hardcore kill your mom you can go elsewhere: it is not made for that.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a week.
This is a fabulous scratch. A real favorite and that's what makes it special (sniff).
Whether at the finish (a tobacco sunburst any bôôôôté) or sound, it's magic. The Tobac (co) is not taboo!
After owning a Jackson Soloist and tried Slsmg moults LP, TV and other strata, it is the one I chose. As with any scratches that level (and price range) it must be a favorite. So yes it is expensive. But the finish is to hauteur.La wood quality, finish, everything shows that we bought is a exception object.
I would do without hesitation that choice for a second because it is an exceptional instrument, the guitar of a lifetime. It goes something between us!See less10
