Fender Highway One Stratocaster HSS [2003-2006]

With the success of the Highway SSS, Fender AdClin out the range and the HSS. Having bought the Highway dj SSS a year before I knew what to expect (see my opinion), though ... But this time I was directly in the IDE to replace the pickups with EMG Steve Lukhater plate. Before the climb, even when I used a little dand its original version.
So it's a Fender States, at least that's described above with a large round head 70 with Fender logo in the same PERIOD. Channel 21 frets and classic Fender body. And of course a Fender humbucker instead of a simple bridge. Black color, while simple Mex are white, it should no longer be any white cover stock humbucker ... The rglages are those of a layer normal and also the wiring (the I will return). The varnish is still non-existent as the SSS.
In hand, we do not have the feel of a skyscraper while the exception of Highway SSS had made me a better impression. Fittings trs way, it is a Highway.

UTILIZATION

Say anything about the race, except that I prfr a lacrosse 60s, but you get done. Ergonomics, say anything, on the ds good strat c'tait departure. Alder body, not too heavy my Sir MODEL. The sound, no surprise in position 1 2 and 3, although vintage and enjoyable. In 5, the humbucker has potato, normal is when the same Intrets of this model and allows the large distortion. When I got personal, it's a little trash too, I do not really but I'm too apprci trs (too) demanding, it is true. As against it is not splittable, and then the economy is one that breaks everything. Impossible "to have a Strat's single bridge and say goodbye in position 4 which is almost unusable with the diffrence out the singles and humbucker. The only solution to change the microphone to a splittable humbucker (white preferences ), but good in this price range, there is better elsewhere. The wiring is the same as for a stratum of SSS o may be the big bed when engaging the humbucker on the slecteur .

SOUNDS

In view of what prcde, Obviously we are far from an American Deluxe HSS knob with S1 but also a Mexican Sambora signature. It is ultimately not trs versatile as it is of Intrets Start HSS with a cot and two singles and the other the humbucker.

OVERALL OPINION

Mcaniques with Shaller locking plate and EMG SL, I got grace the quality of the body and the handle a good alternative economic Lukhater signature Music Man Steve (guitar really high end with an amazing run but obviously not given). If I only want a Start HSS, I would pass my way.

The guitar is USD. The handle is a comfort.
We find everything that makes the quality of a stratum, except for the humbucker, which can Drout Fidler of the MODEL.
The varnish is satin and I got is a quality even if it is the major complaint that everyone can do to highway.

UTILIZATION

The neck is super enjoyable, and quickly found its mark on this stratum. ACCS Acute seems to me to "normal" in the sense that I n'pprouve no problem to get there, but I spend a config gibson fender, so I'm perhaps be not the best person to talk about it.
It sounds easy retouve strats serious on the mic, and position 2 is also in trs INTERESTED crunch.

SOUNDS

MODEL This has the advantage of being very versatile and suitable for modern music, without ngliger provided the classics Fenderiens (blues, blues rock, Funck). That's why I have chosen, other models of good quality as the trs 50 classic, as far too "roots" (difficult to get through the 60's with).
The pickups are perfect for me now, because they sound well refltent strat. I foresee a humbucker nanmoins not too tough compared to Seymour Duncan Jeff Beck Previous quipi my guitar.

OVERALL OPINION

I acquired this guitar a few days ago and she delighted.
It is first trs beautiful, and is a real Strat United States made in corona is not kidding, whatever people may say.
Moreover, comfort and standard of play is the violin really MRIT dplacement. As for the microphones, the most demanding may consider replacing them if singing, but it is a good dj who wants to get Fender. Hum or bed, I personally have not finding (to be seen as the amp and effects).
TRS is a good compromise for the price, and has little envy her big sisters. I got new 600 euros through Germany, the o's retail price is 849 in France. At this price the only one I Submitted a guitar better than this?

Excellent price for what a pure Amricaine. His round of 22 frets trs comfortable "C" offers a wide polivalance notte thanks to the 5 position selector micro. Three knobs: Volume, Tone (Bass), Tone (High).

UTILIZATION

The handle is enjoyable when dplacement trs + or fast, not too pais, it helps to keep consistent throughout a piece (I tried a PRS much less docile this of view). CHAC is the highest frets on the strings trs imple DGBE, but just under dernires frets on the strings the most graves.La trs body shape is enjoyable and the handle does Arrows not go down when using the strap: D (conpar has an Epiphone Les Paul, or it must be in the right arm to keep right). Obviously the sound is undeniable. Playing many pieces of Frusciante, the sound is excellent notte on the magnificent solo style is

SOUNDS

This jewel is perfect my use. To play the Red Hot, Oasis, The Raconteurs, or Bloc Party, the sound lends itself perfectly. I played on a Behringer GMX210 mdiocre I do not advise you, I fall his charm of the Roland Cube 60. The polivalance is highlighted with HSS is MODEL. All types of NSOs are easily found with the microphones slecteur 5 positions and with the wonderful effects of Roland. Hendrixien sound is for me the best.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this scratching for 3 years, I had 11 years of age and since I do dmors more. I knew nothing about guitar, but when I saw the Fender logo, I flash! And I do not regret it, friends jealous despite guitarist Les Paul. Excellent QualitPrix despite budget enough dj lev (in Belgium, not below 750). Although I have in the Ide bought a Tlcaster, other models flagship brand, I never for me my Strat Spar
