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.
