Fender vintage bridge
Channel vintage
For the rest a stratocaster, the only one that can be obtained with a reasonably priced color fiesta.
UTILIZATION
The handle is the quality of this guitar, end, radius of small radius.
Mine is lighter than my other strat, a classic player 50s, which suggests that the body is poplar, alder and not ....
But attention to the spacing of the strings see more next topic
SOUNDS
I play Shadows and instrumental music of the 60s
the sound is consistent with what is expected of a vintage guitar.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 3 months now which allows me to compare with the classic player 50s.
- Of the difference in density of wood, microphones, sound is drier, less intimate, more suitable to the music that kind Shadows classic player 50s
- But this guitar suffers from a default, the string spacing of the bridge, 56.4 mm which is much too high E on loan from the edge of the handle, the classic player 50s is 52.4 mm, 4 mm and less is huge and much nicer!!
It involves changing the entire vibrato bridge, and then good luck, because even at Fender they do not know what they are selling and therefore what amounts or does not rise on a specific model.
Most dealers either, one must look abroad to find the right information.
But know, for example, That a vibrato with screws apart to 56.4, with 52.4 strings are not colored gold, or Fender, or among the many accessory manufacturers.
For information on this subject, contact me.
It is the color I wanted, fiesta red, but as to make a choice, for a few dollars more, take a classic player 50s
