Feature:
Alder body, maple/rosewood neck with great factory fret work. Hummers sound pretty decent for a Fender. Tuners are small, may be trouble with big hands and fingers. Other than that, this beauty is a winner all the way. I especially like the radius rod opening on headstock rather than pulling neck to adjust relief. I set mine at .008" and with 09s it fingers great.
Quality:
MIJ guitars are tops in my books, very well made with excellent detail everywhere. Great sounding woods make it a winner for sure !
Value:
Excellent bang for your buck !
Desirability:
Very sexy appearing to both men and women and very practical on top of it. A well engineered model with short neck makes playing a breeze. Leo was ahead of his time with these !
Sound:
MIJ black beauty with twin hummers, very eye catching and very well made. Excellent detail work all over guitar. Can sound ES335-ish or Tele-like, play with your hummer heights to find you sound but it'll be there. Mine is studio used with a Line 6 Flexton 3 2x12 and they compliment each other to a "T". Tried 10s but went back to 09s. A solid buy at this money. Highly recommend one.
Switches are a headache until you get onto them. Could use a cut switch to reduce hummer to single coil but these stock hummers are pretty decent. I have a MIM Candy Apple Red Jaguar s/s on order, I'm hoping the MIM quality is as good as this. Will let everyone know.
Ease of Use:
No manual comes with it, pretty much user friendly anyhow. You'll be making music in a short while, but don't look for a strat sound, Its close but no cigar.
Support:
I've never dealt with Fender supoort but hear bad vibes about that !
Overall:
I'm in hopes that this old girl will keep going longer than me. And I have no fear that it won't be, it is rock solid from A to Z ! One of the nicest playing, sounding and engineered guitars that Ive played. Thanks Fender !
