Fender Highway One HSS Stratocaster Electric Guitar 3-Color Sunburst Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am SICK enough to own 8 (!!!) of these instruments!
Hey...when I find something I like............
Let me preface.....these are wonderful toneful pieces of wood that are nicely made.
They LOOK great onstage and are sexy as hell!
The ELECTRONICS (pickups) however, leave MUCH to be desired!! In short....they SUCK!!
I WILL NOT accept mediocrity in MY instruments...they must PERFORM; and PERFORM to MY specs!!
The humbucker is WEAK and toneless....no cajones to it!
The single coils are noisy as heck and are mousey.
The tuners (Ping) are horrible little pieces of dung!
The saddles are cheap.
After sinking about $300.00 in new pickups, tuners and saddles......these guitars are absolutely UNBELIEVABLE!!!
I will put them up against a Fender Custom Shop instrument ANY day of the week!!
So....for a total of about $1100.00.....these guitars (IMHO) rival just about ANY Custom Shop guitar!!
And SAVE a couple of thousand dollars in the process!!
Get one.....and 'do it up' YOUR way...with YOUR choice of premium pickups and such....you'll have a GREAT guitar!!

Fender Standard Stratocaster HSS Electric Guitar Lake Placid Blue Maple Fingerboard Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)In an earlier life, I was a rockabilly bass player--both upright and electric bass-- but never owned an electric six-string. Played acoustical six- and 12-string back in the folk music days of the 1960's. I saw this Strat on the Amazon site and the Lake Placid Blue paint job caught my attention. Since one of my favorite albums is Tony Joe White's "Lake Placid Blues" I thought this must be a sign from God. I clicked it into the cart and the rest is history. Now I'm an aging Swamp Rocker!
Out of the box this axe plays well and the sound is truly Stratocaster. Even my wife (a classical guitar junkie) even recognized the penetrating Strat sound. With a $500 price tag this little Fender is hard to beat. The gig bag is more than adequate protection unless you are planning on opening for the Stones at Radio City Music Hall and need to ship it to New York. :>)
Since my experience has been all acoustical, the Strat will take some 'getting used to' but I don't see that as a major problem and it certainly isn't the guitar's fault.
Anyway, I don't have any reservations about recommending this Fender.
So put one in your shopping cart and I'll see ya at Radio City Music Hall. We'll teach the Rolling Stones a thing or two!
