Fender Player Stratocaster HSS Buttercream MN
Product no: 9000-0044-0165 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

Fender's Player Stratocaster HSS is a versatile electric guitar with two Alnico single-coils pickups and a humbucker on board. The single-coils in the mid and neck positions give you authentic Strat sounds while the humbucker at the bridge delivers extra output for when you really want to rock out! This guitar is also equipped with a stable 2-point synchronised tremolo bridge that allows you to easily add vibrato effects to your playing without going out of tune.

Player Stratocaster HSS

The Player series follows on from the immensely popular Standard series and offers the same great value for money. This model even has an extra fret with 22 medium jumbo frets in all. The neck has a modern C profile and the back has been given a satin-gloss finish for a fast, smooth feel. This, along with the familiar 9.5-inch fretboard radius, gives the guitar a high level of playing comfort.

Prima gitaar, goed afgesteld geleverd, alleen de tremolo moest wat aandacht hebben. Terug gestuurd omdat ik er een tweedehands kon scoren maar anders had ik hem gehouden..
Prijs-kwaliteitverhouding erg goed!!

Inmiddels deze gitaar een half jaar ruim in bezit en gebruik. Kan er heel kort over zijn: het is een heerlijke strat! In een paar maanden tijd is dit mijn absolute favoriet geworden. Wel zijn er een aantal minpunten te noemen. Voor mij zijn deze niet onoverkomelijk, maar voor een ander kan dit wel een issue zijn.
1: Tuning stability is matig. Brug is een beetje tussen zwevend en plat op de body in. Beetje jutteren en je kunt stemmen. Vervelender nog is wanneer je alternatieve tunings wilt gebruiken. Neem een half uur minimaal om de gitaar in tune te krijgen. Voor mij geen probleem, voor andere tunings dan E heb ik een andere gitaar.
2: Bij gebruik in de oefenruimte of live is deze gitaar behoorlijk noisy. Ook de humbucker creert (zeker met meer gain) behoorlijk wat bijgeluiden.
