«  Excellent guitar preppy »

Published on 04/11/14 at 13:56
Guitar USA.
Easel conventional Fender. He was floating, I set to rest on the table.
Channel classic Fender type "C", neither too thick nor too thin. Maple, rosewood insert button.
22 frets.
3 pickups: 2 single Texas special, double Pearly Gates in the bridge position.
Volumes and classic tones on a Strat.

UTILIZATION

The handle is very comfortable to play, just like the guitar in general, which is very well balanced. Access to the last string is the strats, the heel where the neck is screwed is not ideal as a very streamlined Parker, but it does its job well.

We get a great sound, whether on a rack with lamps or amplification transistor, or a set of pedals, preferably with a tube combo like a Peavey Classic 30.

SOUNDS

The single coil pickups are typical strats but a very blues coloring (with a blues + reference for the neck pickup), the intermediate position microphones handle / middle pickup is snapping at will (a treat), as we like, dual microphone bridge is powerful and precise, without being intrusive.

You can play classic strat like Vaughan, Knopfler or Gilmour on simple, but also Lukather on the double.

I prefer this guitar: its versatility, ease of play What I hate ... nothing!

The factory setting position microphones has sometimes been criticized, but if you know how to do it in 15 minutes, it's done. The humbucking bridge must be set very low to have a good balance between micro level (the single are really powerful ...)

OVERALL OPINION

This guitar is one of those that I use in rehearsals and concerts for 13 years and if I have other models (for other styles of music specific), it has its place of choice!

Difficult to talk about quality / price ratio, because I bought it in 2001 7200 francs (about 1,100 euros), which no longer has too much sense today.

This guitar is a gem, and it is becoming increasingly rare ...
