fuzzstone « built behind the wall .... »
Published on 05/13/10 at 09:27Lead Star in Musim, manufactured in East Germany before the fall of mur.configuration with SSS and vintage vibrato bridge. 5 position selector
- Round
- Neck + middle
- Neck + bridge
- Bridge + middle
- Bridge
Bolt, mechanical vintage Hood, Fender 60's first head CBS, rosewood fingerboard, 21 frets.
White 3 ply pickguard, one volume, two tones, what a Start!
The original proportions are well respected, no obvious difference with the original.
a detail, however, that it weighs its weight! not far from 4kg I think, certainly heavier than my SG, and hands down!
manufacturing is correct without being well LUXURIOUS on.the varnish is applied, no obvious sag, the handle is quite nice, more than my old strat Japanese owned in the past because flatter than the maple necks I've played .
as they say, everyone's tastes ....
UTILIZATION
I like the handle of the shovel, comfortable, pleasant to the touch (the patent is skated well on the back), the ergonomics are top (this is a strat again) if there was no that weight a little surprising.
the selector is "accurate", not playing or inadvertent contact any false, the knobs, a little too hard to handle, but it sputters it, and then there, big surprise: ZERO BUZ!
this is the first single coil that I have that does not generate any buzz about right even at volume (volume and gain at mid race and a Master 4 on a JCM 600) to a little over a meter of the amplifier.
The real surprise of this guitar, really, I'll have to open it to see how it's happening under his pickguard ....
SOUNDS
I already said in a previous post on a Japanese Start, Fender Stratocaster sound is not my cup of tea is like that, it is unexplainable.
Nevertheless we must admit, to have fun by taking purple haze, a stratovolcano that .. the fact that she has provided at least ais accents that sound like vintage that in the great jimi.
So, no, this German was not the sound of a L series, not even a good strat upscale custom shop, does it sound fenderien I love a good mic some serious trouble, although slamming a microphone acute and intermediate positions that indifference to me .... lol.
vibrato is cool and interesting detail, the microphones have a sacred fishing! to give an idea, they manage to do cruncher Fender Champ 600! those who have played on a field 600 know what I mean .... ;-D
On a blues, rock old school of hard to see the former, this shovel is more than the job, it clears up a great vintage vibe, pleasant to play, sounds very pertinant, one of the very best imitation Stratocaster that I 've owned, no kidding.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for two months, found secondhand for cheap, it is revealed a pleasant surprise. did she point I am not sure that all parts are original, especially the electronics seems very silent ..
Start looking for a proper and did not budget for a Mexican or an honorable highway 1, the Lead Star can reveal what a good plan.car for less than affinity, this guitar gives more.
