Fender Stratocaster classic player 60 ':
the guitar was designed by the custom shop
All parts are American, including the famous vintage microphones.
The assembly is made in Mexico, and varnishes used are Mexican.
Value: about 720 euros.
The assembly is well made, but mostly it emerges from this guitar has a real personality.

UTILIZATION

The handling of this guitar is very easy, it is not too heavy. The settings are very famous with conventional microphones selector 5 positions, 2 tone knobs and volume knob.

SOUNDS

I use this stratum 'in a wide variety of musical styles (blues, rock, hard, occasionally a little metal for fun). I use the small Roland Cube 30 which I modeled perfectly sound the clearest sounds the most bold and aggressive. The association "guitar and amp" is, in my opinion, a great buy (low cost: less than 1000 euros), which offers the opportunity to play on a high-quality instrument that offers remarkable versatility.
In this price range, I doubt that there is currently a guitar that is able to compete in quality and sound. This is very typical vintage, which can offend though.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a month and I can not get enough. I hesitated between the purchase of this guitar and the Start of a 'american standard (significantly more expensive, but 100% made in United States)
I had the budget for the beautiful American, and before the comparison test, I counted myself the offer.
After the test, the stratum 'US emerges as a very good guitar, but always with his "standard", ie very happening everywhere. The classic player has a very captivating personality, in terms of appearance and sound.
Simply put, I swallowed my reluctance over Mexican guitars (I must admit that there have been very few boards insipid)
I always fed the dream of one day acquiring a strat 'Us, but I feel it takes out a bunch of dollars (USD) for a high quality instrument.
Maybe Eric Johnson model, or Rory Gallagher, plus the amp that is the height of the instrument .... Aie aie aie j'me doing wrong here .... ;-)
