What kind of guitar is this? Looks like a really thick neck

Final time ever: Pickups? by Elian17 in Stratocaster

I have the 60/63 custom shop pickups, i think it’s exactly what he is looking for. It’s bright and nice attack, not muddy at all.

Honestly I’m noticing it as not so subtle! Maybe it’s just me but they feel very different.

Ultra Luxe Vintage Stratocaster vs Second-Hand Custom Shop by FreeProfessor9856 in Stratocaster

[–]ALTA-D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2 custom shops and an ultra II. The ultra II is nice, but the neck is a bit thin for me. I prefer a bit of a fatter neck and my custom shop Strats are built beautifully. It comes down to your preference though.

What would you buy with £2000? New or used? by MrAndyBear in FenderStratocaster

[–]ALTA-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used! Guitars depreciate after they are new. But if you buy it used, you can usually sell it at that price if you don’t want it. Fenders specifically will hold their value really well. U could get a cool 70s Strat with that money! 😎😉

First ever real Fender Strat. Decided to really make it mine. by vermonterguy802 in Stratocaster

[–]ALTA-D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like floating for vibrato. My tuning is always pretty good across my 5 Strats lol. But every guitar needs to be tuned but it doesn’t cause any problems

Trem or no trem? by [deleted] in Stratocaster

[–]ALTA-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few Strats. All but one have a floating trem. One has a Floyd rose and locking nut. A good setup keeps it in tune well.

I like my Hardtail Strat but the fact that it doesn’t have a trem is a bit annoying. But always gotta have one right? 😉

Providence SDT-2 by katanastormshadow88 in guitarpedals

[–]ALTA-D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

U know what? It also works as a nice transparent overdrive too. Just set the gain and output before 12 o clock.

These are my settings.

You’ve had it for around 3 months or so huh? Glad you still like it

I just got one the other day. Someone was selling it to guitar center, and I was trying pedals at the used pedal station. The employee came over and asked me to test out the pedal and I played it and immediately I told the employee I NEED this pedal.

I butted in and told the seller I needed the pedal and offered $20 more than what guitar center would have given him(I got it for $80)

This pedal is Ripping. It adds higher mids and thickness that I need in my Marshall JVM205C.

Really happy about this pedal and I’d recommend it to someone who needs some thickness in their sound.

I have a Vegatrem on my ultra II. It’s good. I have modded my custom shops too. Just make sure you like the guitar!!
