Man this is one my favorite Strats ever. If you are looking for that light weight strat, look no further! 6lbs and oh so resonant, you can feel it vibrating in your hands! And these pick ups are other worldly!
This particular set is wound different from the original Radioshop Chris Buck set, as they are wound to be played on a maple neck/fretboard. Regardless, they are certainly up there with my favorite single coils. The clean tones are sweet and immaculate, the neck position and position 4 are extra tasty! With the steel plate on the bridge, kick in your favorite overdrive pedal and turn your amp up to that edge of breakup point for some extra glorious feeling!
Can’t say enough about this one, the color, the aged finish and perfect checking, this neck that has a little bit of beef to it, and the extra tones pulled out of these Chris Bucks make this Strat one you absolutely must have! This “Izabella” Hardtail is going to make someone‘s tube amp incredibly happy!
