Made in USA. Custom Shop
22 frets
2 doubles Seymour Duncan "customize" in collaboration with Fender.
3 positions
Floyd
Very good mechanical, superb finish
race driver
UTILIZATION
Channel end very pleasant
Excellent access to acute
light guitar
Very simple adjustment, buttons for volume and tone of very good quality
First small problem: when I bought the pickup selector did not work. I had to put hands on to correct the false contact (I was too lazy to return to the store). Two possible reactions: this is unacceptable considering the price or it is in the right Fender tradition, as soon as all their guitars have (often) or later this problem.
Second small problem: it buzz a bit on the low strings with the factory setting, I easily corrected by turning a turn of the screw floyd.
Third small problem: the low E string is very close to the edge of the handle. I tend to skid, I corrected this by putting my probme pulling is usually stronger.
SOUNDS
This is THE versatile guitar par excellence. Jazz, blues, rock & roll, hard (except for the look) ...
The three positions are just pure happiness. Even the intermediate position is fantastic, as usual on other guitars I do not like it.
Warm and crystalline clean tones, distortion raging
OVERALL OPINION
2 years
It is fantastic in all registers.
I bought 1500 euros, a case because it was slightly striped (you really have an eye on it and with the right angle).
But even at full price it's still a very good deal, once the small problems solved.
