« Buddy Guy a Mexican »
Published on 03/08/12 at 02:44As the title indicates, this is a production MEX.
Channel V (soft), satin varnish throughout, with the signing of the master.
Vintage frets, vintage radius 7.25.
no eccentricity outside the finish, are all fairly class with a tuxedo ...
Kluson in mechanical, bridge & tremolo block honorable but not equivalent to the US Standard Strat.
UTILIZATION
The soft V profile is rather go anywhere (not too big, not too deep), although there is (in my opinion) is worth a C péroide 62.
the satin varnish (to défauit Detre little sexy), avoids slipping sensation that one can have with big nail that vintage "pêguent" when you sweat too much.
The Strat is lightweight, built for acrobatics on stage.
SOUNDS
This is where the bottom hurts; testing I found the pickups especially aggressive and very shrill in the treble ... So much so that I looked meadows, small magnets (diameter less than the usual staggerred .. .) a peculiar zest ...
I inquired, they are ceramic pickups!! So frankly there is shame, Buddy Guy deserved better.
lack of heat in all positions, particularly on the neck pickup, bridge pickup ultra loud ...
In short, that is what is passed through the head designers Fender on this model?
Is that the idea was to produce a set of cash up "heavy saturax" Buddy so angry?
maybe ... at least in clean and light crunch is pretty bad.
I put a 4 for the microphones.
OVERALL OPINION
Tested in a guitar mag. on a peavey classic 30.
Am a specialist strats (in possesses a dozen ...).
If the violin is very respectable for the price, the choice of micro ceramics is bad in my opinion.
If I had had my say, I would have prescribed the minimum of 57/62 or 54, from Fender to stay in the brand.
and I do not even mention the choice shop alnico ...
with this kind of "upgrade", you'll have a really nice guitar.
I put 5 only because of the ceramic pickups.
