Perfect for every occasion

Advantages: superb playability, excellent intonation and tone
Disadvantages: can be quite expensive

...:). Originally the Fender Stratocaster was made in 3 countries which was subsided into 3 different price ranges. The Mexican Strat was the cheapest, then there was the Japanese mid range Strat and finally the more expensive American. Slightly different woods and pickups where the main defining difference between the 3 models. unfortunately they seized production of the Japanese Strat a few years back which has always been my preferred choice due ...
...makes this axe so versatile. Fender really have set a benchmark that many companies have tried desperately to copy, but none can compete with that of an original Fender Stratocaster. If you are into the sounds of a Gibson then this guitar is not for you as there are is no chance of making this sound like a les paul. Although in my opinion these guitars equally sound great, they are also completely different sounding guitars as they are built a different ...

Review of Fender 50s Stratocaster Electric Guitar

So comfortable it even helps with your playing

Advantages: The neck is perfect, no stretching and very comfortable
Disadvantages: Nowhere to put a whammy bar

...it. Much better than the fender strat squire I began with, the fret boards lighter coloured wood looks better and in my opinion makes it easier to see what your doing. The neck has the best feel I have ever felt from any guitar I have played. The neck is quite skinny so easy to get your fingers around for people who suffer from that problem but it doesn't compramise on the fret boards width, i.e. the strings are not too close together. Its not that ...

Review of Fender 72 Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar

An Ace Bass

Advantages: Body Cut, Tone, Durability, Versatility
Disadvantages: Colour Choice

I love this Bass.. It has a really punchy sound and can be applied to any style of music. I recently stood in for a Jazz band at fairly short notice and had to use my Jaguar. It performed admirably and even recieved comments about the sound from both the drummer and pianist. Look wise the Jag also holds its own, I really like the fretboard inlays which remind me of my Lakland and the cut of the body makes it as comfortable to play sitting as standing. ...
...supplied with the Bass were pretty low quality and lacked a roundness in sound. I know you can get the odd set that is not right and I'm putting it down to this. But once changed the axe played fine. I would recommend this guitar to anyone and for the £650 I paid its a hell of a lot of wood for your money.. ...

Review of Fender 62 Jaguar Electric Guitar

Awesome guitar!

Advantages: Great sound, range of sounds, easy to play, excellent fabrication!
Disadvantages: Tone/volume knobs a bit weak.

If you are someone who likes to buy a few of the greatest guitars, this is a 'must have'! It's unique look and Tele sound make this a guitar which is great fun to play! You can get the twangy jazzy sound of a strat or a smoother gibson sound by easily adjusting the pickup selection. This guitar adapts perfectly to effects pedals. The fairly low action on this guitar makes it very easy to play and 'flying around' on it is great fun!! Still, I wouldn'y ...

Review of Fender American Deluxe Ash Telecaster

An amazing guitar

Advantages: Pickups, Appearance, Playability
Disadvantages: Weight

...is just so reliable and easy to play. I feel that this guitar would be ideal for any guitarist. The hardware is epiphone standard which is always good. Appearance wise i really love it, it has contrast between the main colour and binding colour which i think is really nice. ...
