Fender American Deluxe Strat HSS

I got to hang out with this newer Strat a while ago and was honestly quite surprised at how many features were jammed into this particular model: locking tuners, roller nut (to help with keeping things in tune with the-->), 2 point tremolo bridge, a cool push button on the volume knob to change the character of the tone circuit (though eliminates the tone controls when selected), strap locks...you get the idea. Without this sounding too much like a commercial (though I'm sure it does!) I'll stop and just do a little review of the guitar and what I did.

So, this came to me with some terrible setup done. Basicly, it sat for a while and got completely out of whack. Bridge was high, springs weren't tensioned properly and the action was nuts. The neck was also pretty scooped into a nut bow. Fortunately, none of that was irreversible so, away I went! I set it to factory spec and it played like a dream!

So, here's the usual before and after shots. I only wish I has a need for such a guitar, I'd maybe take one as a gift... :D
