Fender Classic Series '70s Stratocaster guitar review
Yesterday I had to go out and buy some guitar strings at Sam Ash in Tampa, and while there tried out two guitars, the above being one of them, a Fender Classic Series '70s Stratocaster in natural finish with the maple neck/maple fingerboard.
Is the Fender Stratocaster (the above is a LPB color) a good guitar? Yes. Modern machining and manufacturing technologies make that possible (the same the reason Squier makes such good guitars these days as well).
Personally, I think that yes, the Fender Stratocaster is an overrated guitar. Good guitar as I said above, but overrated.
Above is a pedal I'm considering buying, the Hotone Wally Compact Looper. The Wally basically does everything the Ditto does for less. And it looks cooler.
A look of Strat I really like, which I did own at one point (more on that in a moment), is black body, white 3-ply pick guard, maple neck and fretboard.
Fact: Most low-cost Behringer pedals are nothing more than close copies of more expensive pedals.
I talk about cheap guitars a lot, but every now and then I talk about the expensive stuff. Why? Because there are a select few who do actually buy this stuff. Heck, you might be one of them.
This is obviously not all of the high-end Gibson stuff. Just a few of them. I picked the ones I personally thought were pretty cool.
With that said, here we go.
The recycled seat belt guitar strap is something I'm seriously considering buying for basically two reasons.
Did you know I'm left-handed? It's true. I play right-handed, but I am a lefty.
I was talking about Rickenbacker electrics and their 12-string offerings recently, so I decided to take a look at what was available for cheap electric 12-string guitars.
Pictured is George Harrison's 1962 Rickenbacker 425; it just sold for $657,000. George was in a band called The Beatles. You might have heard of them.
