MGR/Blue Monkey « Fender Deluxe Super Strat »
Published on 01/03/03 at 15:00I don't have this, but tried enough of it to make and educated opinion. I tried it at a nearby music shop, and the list price was 559 dollars. I had seen the same guitar on a website for 538 dollars. Not much of a difference, but i didn't buy it.
What i liked was the finish. It was a beatiful brown sunburst, and the pick guard was nice too. The hardware of the whole guitar was gold. NICE and SWEET. Of course, the gold wares off, but can later be replaced. The pickups are a new product by Fender, they are Super Fat Super Strat pickups, overwound. Kind of like the Texas Special pickups, but closer to that Steavie Ray Vaughan sound. There are seven pickup combinations as well, allowing a cool variety--perfect for blues, jazz and such.
Compared to other strat's, this is a very light guitar. Not that I don't like it, but its strange....anyway, that's bout it. There's nothing bad about this guitar.
Construction? Puh--lease. Everyone knows that strats are bullet proof, and never die. You could run over one, and it still wouldn't break!
Very nice guitar. Don't be a fag like all those other losers that don't buy Mexican made strats. Mexican made is just as good as American made. Mexico meets the boarder of Texas. That means a great Blues sound!
