Fender American Vintage Hot Rod '57 Stratocaster Electric Guitar Review

Fender Stratocasters have an identifiable character that guitar players know right off the bat. Players like Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan made it a staple of their sound. So you know what you're getting with a Strat. The Vintage '57 Hot Rod Strat takes everything you love about the various Strats Fender has issued in the past and put all the best aspects of them into this guitar. The modern-era Samarium Cobalt Noiseless pickups give you all that great tone without any hum, the DiMarzio Tone Zone bridge pickup is extremely versatile, and the super-thin finish makes the guitar very responsive. Can't beat it. This is one of the greatest american vintage guitars i have ever played.

I own a 56 strat from the fender custom shop. These instruments are of extreme quality, a notch above the floor production models. Play and sound like a dream. also makes a great investment and will last for a lifetime or more. These instruments are made to the exact specifications of the original models. Most often the same suppliers, parts and manufacturers are used. Fender instrument company has done an incredible job in re=creating these gorgeous and highly desireable instruments. Way to go fender. Leo would be proud.....very proud. The 57 strat is a welcome addition to any players arsenal, whether amateur or professional.
