  • AWSOME GUITAR!
Color: olympic white
Tissues was a gift for my husband he absolutely loves it and the sound quality is amazing! Our shipment was missing the cable, strap and bar. I also had to use a kitchen steak knife to open the tweed case picking the lock. There was I key and I'm pretty certain there should have been a key with it. I contacted AMAZON the day it arrived after realizing the items were missing they handled the problem for me and are shipping out a new one with a pre paid return label for the old set. I asked if they wanted me to put the new guitar in the old case being that my husband had already removed the protective wrap from the guitar to play it. I was told it was no problem and to please return the old guitar. The new one will arrive Friday upon receiving it I will then ship the old one back. Very pleased with the customer service and with the guitar! You can't go wrong for the money it is beautiful and the sound is beyond great!!!! ... show more

  • First impressions - awesome! great for smaller hands
Color: pewter
*IMPORTANT* This guitar has a small spring in the hole where the tremolo goes. The hole is covered with a sticker. Be very careful when removing this or you will lose the spring - which is important. It's no where in the directions about it. I'll update this as time goes on, but for now my first impressions are that is a comfortable guitar that sounds incredible. It sounds like you think a strat should. I live in a rural area so I'm not running out to my local G.C., trying out a guitar, and then buying it on line to save on taxes. I was buying this based on the strength of reviews I found. My main concern is what the "soft v" neck was and how it would fit my "smaller" hands (I'm a 5'8" 163# male). I have a tele with a "modern C" neck and I find it tiring to play if I'm doing alot of barre chords. This neck is very comfortable, fast, and easy to play. If you had concerns it was going to big - it's not. If you have big hands you might reconsider. I like a maple neck. It seems fast to me. The action is low so it's easy to fret and bend. The body is the lighter weight alder. Comfortable to stand with for long sessions. The body is slightly heavier than the neck so it feels balanced. It comes with a fender strap. I bought the pewter (the exact same guitar Eric plays in the latest Crossroads Festival when he plays with Steve Winwood). I like the color as it's a subtle metallic flake pewter. No flaws in the paint, finish, or neck. Now let's talk electronics. The noiseless pickups are perfect - no hum. Classic strat sounding. The onboard electronics are what sold me on this model. Check out the video on the TBX to see how that works. I especially like the "trebley" tone which sounds chimey. The midboost is great, instead of a pedal, to bring out the mids and lows and add a crunchy texture to your sound. Good for solos. Is this guitar expensive? Yes! Is it worth it? So far, I think it is. Will I tire of it in a year? Maybe, we'll see. Stay tuned... UPDATE: The tremolo comes "blocked" with a piece of wood between the bridge and the body. Apparently this is what Eric does. No instructions come with this on how to set up the tremolo so I had to watch some videos on You Tube. The guides on Fender.com were not helpful as I didn't know the terminology. Not that setting it up is hard, but it does take a little time and tinkering around to get it just right. I set it up so I could push down on the arm, not floating. ... show more

  • Fender Artist Series Eric Clapton Stratocaster
Color: black
This review is for the Fender artist series Eric Clapton “Blackie” model Stratocaster. I have 2 Other Stratocaster guitars, one American Standard and a Mexican Standard, and they are amazing guitars for the money, but the EC model is definitely an upgrade. The body contours are more accurate to a 57, the neck is amazingly comfortable, not thick, not thin. I wouldn’t have minded if it was a little thicker, but it is truly comfortable. The neck edges are rolled and the fret work is flawless. There are a lot of reviews on the Internet and YouTube reviewing this model and I suggest you read and watch them. They are very accurate. What I feel important to address are the vintage frets. There seems to be a concern that people may have to get used to them, or they might not find them comfortable. Most guitars today come with jumbo or medium jumbo fret wire. Let me just say these frets feel great under your finger tips. String bends are comfortable, chording is easy, and your fingers will glide over your fret board without speed bumps. I understand now why EC chose vintage style frets for his guitars. They feel great. If I have to list a disappointment, and this is truly nit picking, it would be that Fender doesn’t use stainless steel frets on this model. I don’t understand why they omit this. They are stronger and will last a lifetime, and would put off having to get the neck refretted over time. Come on Fender, this guitar after taxes is $1,700, stainless steel frets should be standard. None-the-less, I really love this guitar. ... show more
