monday I am going to order an American Strat. I have it narrowed down to either the American Strat, American Shawbucker Strat, Dlx American Strat or Dlx American Shawbucker Strat
I want that classic fender sound. However the Shawbucker interests me because it has the same fat Strat 50s in the mid and neck positions so it should have the same tone in those two positions. According to the fender website the Shawbucker maintains the classic fender tone but provides more power. Has anyone tried the Shawbucker. If so how does it sound compared to the normal fat 50 pickup in the bridge position. Also is the Dlx Strat worth the extra money and does the noiseless pickups have a different tone?
This decision is very important to me being my real first Strat I would like some opinions to help me make my decision.
