I used to hate strats when I started playing guitar, as I got older and wiser I realized that not everything is about metal, hot pickups and high gain amps. Recently aquired a strat with fender custom shop texas special pickups. The cleans are crystal clear, and overdriven are glorious, specially position 2 and 4.

@dogslobbergardens6606 2 жыл бұрын
And you might be surprised at the metal tones you can get out of "weak" pickups anyway. Adding more gain is the easiest part. If you're getting the overtones and such that you like to begin with, you can always add more dirt... and it sounds even better. Many of the high-output pups sacrifice clarity and richness just for the sake of going RAAAAHHHHH! and that sucks.

@baldpaulstudios7023 2 жыл бұрын
@@OlaEnglund yea, it totally works and actually the volume knob being raised a bit seems to be better? Not sure why but I use my amps for distortion so I'm all over my volume while playing and it just seems more comfortable and accurate with a a rubber washer under it. Strange how making it more in the way makes more functional and less in the way. let me know if u try it. I had to do it to my Suhrs too . their pots are like free spinning bearing . way to lose.

I've got a buttermilk Stratocaster, with the Yngwie Malmsteen volume pot from Seymour Duncan installed. It has a much smoother and immediate taper than the stock Fender pot and it's a low friction speed pot, which is highly responsive and a massive improvement. I've been using the Ernie Ball Hyper Slinky 8 - 42 sets lately and really like them on the Strat.

As we all grow older we all becoming wiser and starting to look for playability rather than extravagant looks & gimmicks and Stratocaster simply makes sense: simple, reliable, comfortable, straight forward. Love it, Ola.
@heycouper629 2 жыл бұрын
SMACK!!! Hey Ola. Love the channel. I have an aged Olympic white strat with a brown tortoise pick guard. The volume knob is totally in the way especially palm muting the higher strings. I took it upon myself to eliminate one of the tone pots and drop the volume pot down to the upper tone pot location. In place of the original volume location I installed a low profile kill switch. Soooooo much more comfortable to play and the kill switch is great to have for crazy stuff.

Hey, Ola! The vintage style Fender tremolos work well with a spring under the whammy bar. Stew Mac sells them. It keeps the bar from swinging and puts pressure to keep the bar in place. They are called “Trem-Arm Tension Spring”.
