Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster HSS.
Channel and mapple key, medium jumbo frets, pearl benchmarks.
Alder body two parts, amber finish.
Samarium cobalt noiseless pickups and bridge humbucker position.
Two-point synchronized tremolo, ball bearing nut, self-blocantes mechanical.
S-1 switch for 4 to 5 additional combinations standarts.

Supplied in a little pouch Fender plastoc but FUNCTIONAL.

USE

It's a Strat with slightly more sophisticated accessories allows for a better agreement, vibrato is very nice.
The maple fingerboard provides more sustain a rosewood fingerboard and also gives a feeling of speed.
The microphones are silent even at high gain, perfect for a clean recording without hum and parasite.
The S-1 switch provides different combinations of micro continuously, personally I never use me ...

The handle is very nice with a C-section, access to acute is impeccable.

SOUNDS

Very good sound and a lot of versatility.
SCN pickups are very quiet (ideal for clean records) but the definition is somewhat poorer than good single coil.

The neck pickup is perfect, both warm and clear, a real Strat sound as we like.
The medium microphone is drier and tightens in its frequencies.
Double coil mouai ... I like a little less finally I much prefer a good "classic 57" from Gibson.
The parallelized positions are nice, softer.

Everything is done with little but his chosen field is the Rock / Hard.



NOTICE GLOBAL

Very good instrument in a spirit a little more "modern" that "a vintage reissue, one likes or dislikes.
I finally sold it and bought an American Vintage Reissue 57 'black.
