Nattramn « A Fender alien! »
Published on 11/03/10 at 06:10Guitar "assembly" in the Cort factory in Korea, but American components (which explains the marked difference in price with a Start us). American Tremolo bridge with 2 anchor points made good if not abused. Channel V which is C-shaped profile, and it offers excellent comfort to the game, it is also faster than a profile in C. 22 frets, 3 Seymour Duncan Alnico pickups. A volume adjustment (better) two tones and a 5 position selector.
UTILIZATION
The handle is one of the many strengths of this guitar. It is already very nice (mottled), but also very very comfortable! As mentioned above the configuration profile is extremely pleasant and fast solos. A very good balance of shape and weight (Fender oblige!). In fact the body is ash lightweight (Lite Ash) which can be a little scary at first for large stratoriens! But still a healthy weight (no back pain). The access to the highs is easy. The clear sound delivered by the 3 pickups is very good (but remember that these are three alnicos, it is not the high-end brand). In crunch, it is fun. A good sound to Hendrix or Dire Straits. With distortion, it can reach an interesting sound to the TDCA but do not expect to play Children Of Bodom! That is why, moreover, that I changed the bridge pickup against a Seymour Duncan Hot rails. Breeeeef a good sound, somewhat different from that produced by Fender pickups! But they are nonetheless interesting, a real Strat alien!
SOUNDS
I play a wide range of rock from Hendrix to black metal. So that I was looking for a versatile guitar, and I already typed this stratum in the eye. I'm changing the bridge pickup for a fatter sound, heavier. I play on an Orange Tiny Terror combo and a pedalboard Zoom GFX-8. I began playing with a very big sound. I much prefer the distal straight.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 1 year now. I tried many before that the strat; Mexican, Japanese and U.S. ... But none really appealed to me (a bit difficult you may say). I love her look and she seems really unique (special issue, please!). The value and simply wonderful
