Fender Jeff Beck Stratocaster Reviews

On 2001-12-02, marc the deepseadriver rated this Fender Jeff Beck Stratocaster a 5...(966)


Purchase: I bought the guitar second hand, It was made in 1991 and I own it since two years. I have paid 900 EUR, ($ 800) for the guitar, with tolex box included.
Pros: The guitar has a great range op sounds and possibilities. From an amazing humbucker sound to an extreme pure and typical fender sound. The lace-sensors are very clean,less noise. But when you use tube-amps, it is really funny. the '58 steel feels pretty well, It tunes very easy and accurate. The guitar plays very easy, it feels you can play twice as quick.
Cons: Frequent use of the tremolo makes frequent tuning necessary. I think the neck is difficult for persons with small hands.
Quality: My guitar has a "surfin' green" colour, rosewood fingerboard, and the humbuckersized bridge pickup. It has an additional knob for changing the sound of that pickup : singlecoil or humbucker. since 2001 a newer version ap the Jeff Beck is available, the neck seems better for smaller hands. The pickups have changed.

Review Summary: It is an exceptional guitar, a very complete instrument with , I think, almost all sound possibilities in one instrument... and well done. It is not cheap, but buying a gibson Lp and a fender american standard costs more and is more difficult when performing.
