Fender Deluxe Stratocaster, Sapphire Blue Transparent with gig bag
Product no: 9000-0028-0673 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The Sapphire Blue Transparent finish on this Fender Deluxe Stratocaster lets the natural wood grain of the ash body show through, giving this model a stunning finish to go with its versatile sound. It has a 3-ply mint-green pickguard and a maple fretboard. The combination of wood types give it a bright sound with excellent resonance and sustain.

Deluxe Strat: luxury comfort and playability

The Fender Deluxe Stratocaster has a number of modern features for optimal comfort and playability. A relatively flat 12-inch fretboard radius makes it easier to bend notes, while the maple neck has a satin-gloss lacquer which is perfect for playing fast solos. Lastly, the neck has a modern C profile, making each of the 22 frets easy to play.

Vintage Noiseless pickups

The Deluxe Stratocaster series is characterised by its unmistakable Fender sound and its versatility. Three Vintage Noiseless pickups are fitted for an exceptionally bright sound without any unwanted noise or hum. Of particular note is the push-push mini switch that lets you access extra pickup combinations for a wider variety of sounds. So, if you're looking for a Strat with a little bit more, the Deluxe Stratocaster could be the model for you.

Wrote the following about Fender Deluxe Stratocaster, Sapphire Blue Transparent with gig bag

De strat ziet er in Werkelijkheid nog mooier uit dan op de foto. Combinatie van het transparante Blauw met een Mint groene slagplaat Is gewoon heel stijlvol. Over smaak valt niet te twisten.

Ik ben een les paul gewend en vind de hals met 12" fretboard geweldig aanvoelen ook de vintage noisless elementen zijn zeker een +++ Wel het heerlijke onvervalste strat geluid maar niet de ruis van de singelcolis.

Ook de schakelaar waarmee je het brugelement in tegenfase schakelt met stand 4 en 5 voegd zeker wat toe en geeft een soort extra compressie aan je geluid wat gewoon geweldig klinkt.

Locking tuners helemaal ok. Als je de trem wil decken zou ik een aantal veren toevoegen standaard zitten er 3 veren in en als je met wat dikkere snaren speelt is dat wat weinig om de brug te decken.

C'est ma première Fender ! Après l'utilisation de reproductions chinoises, j'ai décidé de passer à une vraie strat'. Celle ci est fabriquée au Mexique, mais essayer c'est l'approuver. L'ensemble est harmonieux tant au niveau du son que de l'esthétique. Seule la housse Fender n'est pas trop valorisante mais je m'en fiche. Je'ai reçue dans les temps et bien emballée. Merci Fender, merci Bax...

Très belle guitare, belle finition avec un look vintage grâce au pickguard vert menthe et boutons et micros vintage . le manche est un régal avec en plus le talon en biseau. les micros sont bons et sans souffle. Le switch pour ma part n apporte rien d intéressant . Les mécaniques à blocages tiennent l accordage comme jamais . Très content de mon achat .
