[Guitarstring187]

Ive got a fender mim strat(2004 hss)cost 600$ I have a love hate relationship with it. I know if i would of bought mia i would not have all the problems. Dont get me its a very cool guitar. Ive been playing for 10 years now. So it could be that my taste is more refined now. However i love the guitar. Quick run down of mim

Pro's cheaper,Its fender, looks very nice,Sounds good.

cons(not as smooth as mia but close)Not noisless.(Have to find sweet spots) Humbucker is trebbely(mixed is awsome tone)_

[PunkyDoughnut]

this guitar is built for versitility :)

[patriots14892]

how much did u pay for this guitar

[legumes12]

@fudgefreak100 Generally, the more you pay for the guitar, the better quality you get, as in, you pay $2,000, you get $2,000 worth of a guitar. Generally, speaking though, like I said. Obviously, if you take care of your guitar, it will last you.

[esz111]

getting this x-mas break!

[kairly1]

in australia the american standard strat is more than $2, 500

i found one for 2 grand

im buying it :D

[aldobu1990]

@kairly1 LOL IN USA ITS LIKE 1000 BUCKS

[kairly1]

lol i ended up getting it for christmas SCOREEE yeah i love lizzie

[legumes12]

Here in the U.S. its a grand. How does 2 grand in Australian currency translate into American currency?

[claronaminerva]

good job

[BigEvilLadia23]

i have a Fender Stratocaster HSS made in Mexico but i like the Mexican American & Japan Fender

[RONGILIUS]

ok....

[AcDc109]

Why I do think this not played 100% right, I dont agree it sounds awful, I composed this whole thing in 5 minutes. Hey, at least I make my own music.

[immaboogieman]

i'm sorry, i was writing about the tone, but maybe it's your camera... instead i really like the tune itself. really sorry!!! keep on doing your thing, being creative is just priceless

[AcDc109]

Well, my effects are cheap. I have a $150 multieffects pedals. But at the end its just the guitar, clean no effects

[xRDAVx]

it's not 1000 bucks, it costs 500

[DGianB7]

Not if you get the American made version

[xRDAVx]

yeah you're right. my bad.

[aldobu1990]

@xRDAVx wtf 500? are you crazy go to guitar center then talk to me

[HamburgerDuck]

wats the difference between an hss an a mn?

[madezecke]

HSS has a humbucker in the bridge position, mn means it has a maple neck

[lighteningboy]

Man, that's huge reverb, then none at all, hahaha

[ruaryM]

i'm getting a maple blizzard pearl telecaster soon but i don't play this music

[Greatmk]

What's the difference between this one and the Deluxe?Is the Deluxe worth the couple of hundred dollars more ?

[2old2classic]

the deluxe dont get out of tune when using the wammy bar

[Greatmk]

And the standard one does ?

[AcDc109]

Depends, I set up my bridge so you can only pull down on the notes, and im using 0.09 strings, and it does not go out of tune.

[paldenno1]

Yes, the neck in particular si better. And therefore the sound also.

[thojyout23]

i think this is the one i found on guitar center for 500 dollars. is it a good guitar? is the humbucker good??? im thinking about getting maple for a more bright sound.

[AcDc109]

The maple on the neck is going to make your tone only a bit brighter which you can achieve using a rosewood neck guitar by turning the highs on the amp a little further. So choose the neck acording to preference in comfortability .

Also this guitar costs over a 1000 dollars. And yes its the best guitar ive tried

[ferrarimk13]

for $500 youre getting a mexican fender not an american, but its still decent.

[18n0m]

different guitar. this one goes for 1299 dollars i think. the guitar ur talking about is probably the standard strat hss which goes for 499.99

[getthepoooffmybum]

How does this baby sound with distortion? I play stuff from grunge to classic rock to heavy metal, so sometimes I need to use some pretty heavy distortion.

[AcDc109]

haha, its awsome for heavy distortion, I use it a lot with heavy distortion, its a beast, it squeals very nicely when doing pinch harmonics.

[legumes12]

@getthepoooffmybum Strats aren't the best for metal, they can certainly do it, but it won't be the best (they're mainly for blues to classic rock kind of stuff with overdrive.)

[MTuck21]

hows the amp? I might get it. I have a Boss OD-20 and Epi LP

[AcDc109]

Amps all right for clean channel. Distortion is a bit sucky with full gain. Still with a good compressor you can get good sounds out of the distortion. If you allready have an OD pedal you can handle this amp very well. I dont recommend this amp for very loud volumes, such as more than 7. Though I used it live in small gigs and it handles well at volume 5.

Cheers

[Luisrox123]

is this guitar good for down tuning? I play blues and jazz, but i also like heavy metal and i tune to drop c a lot, would it stay in tune?

[AcDc109]

with the correct string gauge and set up, I do not see why not

[bullettriviumbodom]

I didn't get the case with mine =S

[AcDc109]

Either you got scammed, you bought it used, or you bought a MIM

[Luisrox123]

well, the MIM comes with a gig bag anyway.

[MIkeCampbellCKY]

Is this good for the hendrix sound? I know he used one.

[AcDc109]

Yep of course its good for the hendrix sound!

[MIkeCampbellCKY]

cool man.

[LXSkins]

it is cool man.

[frankafru]

do u recomend the HSS over the regular SSS?

[AcDc109]

Yes I do, I strongly recommend HSS

[MIkeCampbellCKY]

If you play alot of rock and metal the HSS is the way to go sense the humbucker is good for that.

[rapedro2]

ta perrona

la fender yo quiero comprar una negra cuanto te valio si ´puedes dime en pesos aca en mexico

[AcDc109]

la verdad vivo en argentina, no tengo idea de los precios alli

[djcp12]

pretty good ...but whats with the pictures and video of your room and guitars?

[martin2844]

nothing, if not the video would a been a little boring dont you think?

[MIkeCampbellCKY]

just get a stack dude

[amoulet69]

Hola,

Soy de España, me encantan tus videos y me gustaria saber donde puedo comprar esa cinta de poker de la Les Paul.

Gracias y enhorabuena.

[AcDc109]

gracias por el comentario. La cinta de poker fue comprada en Guitar Center Nueva York. Pero sin embargo yo siendo de aca de buenos aires, he visto muchas parecidas en casas de musica. Te recomiendo que busques en casas de musica q seguro encontras alguna!

Saludos

[ledzepplinisthebest]

Ive got a question. Ive always wondered if you could but in a gibson type humbucker or a p90 in the hss slot without routing or drilling. Can you?

[AcDc109]

You can put a humbucker, not a P90, since their size is different. You may have to file a litlle bit the pickguard if the humbucker is covered.

There are also P90s in the size of humbucker that may fit

[ratiug333]

Nice Video. But what is the meaning did you get a new guitar or something??? please anwer back your friend ratiug333

[AcDc109]

For you to listen how the fender HSS sounds, thanks
