Published on 06/24/14 at 12:40This beautiful Stratocaster was made in Mexico, and I got it in September 2012. It consists of an alder body and bolt-on maple neck.
It has 21 frets and a maple fingerboard also.
It is also composed of three single-coil pickups Fender Custom Shop Texas Special, accompanied by a general volume of two tones (+ 5-way switch).
UTILIZATION
The handle is very good to play and move around is a pleasure, because as the Gibson SG 60's Tribute, it is fine.
Access to the highest notes is as easy as the place is to be able to even make "Full".
A defect in his weight a bit heavy (4.3 kg), its shape is typical of the stratosphere form, which I think is very beautiful to watch.
When the branch, get a good sound is a bit more difficult than the Gibson, but we quickly found a sound that still sends: when positioning the switch to the neck pickup, the sound is to die for earth ..! (Especially on an amp Vox or Fender tube!).
Note that the finish is perfect.
SOUNDS
This guitar suits perfectly to the Blues or even Rock; since with the 5-way switch, you can travel on a wide range of sounds.
With the neck pickup, and this is my favorite sound, I get the Blues, who "travel" when you play I think, I call it, the sound "bottle" (beautiful).
My sound that I find less is undoubtedly the bridge pickup, well certainly for good Rock / Blues, but I think it is too acute, sometimes when the bass are not mounted at least until 3/4.
OVERALL OPINION
I use this guitar for 2 years and I am totally satisfied with it.
For the Blues, it is great to make Rock? Too!
The price / quality ratio is very interesting indeed, since it is a Stratocaster 700 euros! And the sound quality would be a little more, I think.
Finally, I love the typical plate of the "Deluxe" series, with black and red patterns.
It has 21 frets and a maple fingerboard also.
