Fender Vintera Road Worn 60's Stratocaster - The Affordable 60's Strat! - Review & Demo

[@forrest.0569]

Listening to that guitar quite literally makes me feel really excited

[@jeffreykercheval9177]

Got one of those! It is my new favorite guitar! Have the American.....but this makes me feel at home. LOVE IT!

[@riddlem067]

Great video! Great guitar! Great playing! Keep up the good work dude!

[@MartinEB72]

It's almost worth it just so you don't have to worry about getting the first nick in it. I still prefer non Fender strats just so the volume knob is at least a little further away.

[@josephgaude]

Great job Dagan! I love the relics.. I have a '62 reissue coming in the mail...

[@Fleas5150]

Is it going to fit in your mailbox?

[@sygis21]

Super well played, Sir. What an Intro-Jam...

[@ryanblack2227]

I love the Road Worn series. My 2009 60s RW Strat is amazing. I just with Fender would put rosewood boards on the Vintera series and offer a 3 tone burst.

[@sleepy4x]

Nothing wrong with the pao ferro.

[@LewiDoesMusic]

@@sleepy4x everyone has different tastes for what wood they want for the fret board

[@sleepy4x]

Finally I got this. Feels and sounds good.

[@albertosotelo9969]

My GAS brain says "If I buy it, I may play as sweet as Dagan"

[@thejuggernaut5327]

Always the best demos, thanks D!

[@scrap_iron_2264]

You’re a great guitar player. Well done sir

[@conorjames8456]

9:13 Me: what about an actual vintage strat neck pickup

[@local-rigs3610]

So weird. I got this same guitar yesterday and your review premiered today!

[@ryanboshell6124]

This in sunburst, I’d buy one today.

[@TonySop]

Or Olympic white

[@benallmark9671]

It comes in Sunburst but not in a roadworn. 50’s , map,e neck , she’s a beauty

[@lmazcraz]

Great intro Dags....................

[@pgcs98]

genuinely curious to know how many players recognised the riff for Sucker by JM, such a hidden gem imo

[@Jamie_kemp]

Basically gravity but at double speed in the intro

[@DavidRFIT]

you could tell it was JM even not knowing that specific song :D

[@forrest.0569]

Holy shit that tone, so warm and smooth, is that the guitar or amp?

[@Ab.gs3]

both

[@DavidRFIT]

Great playing mate!

Cool guitar 🎸

[@michaelcera757]

Can you do a video on the vox ac30c2?

[@Wakeman8791]

This guy could sell ketchup to a woman in white gloves. Great vid, buying one ASAP

[@helixworld]

I want to upgrade from my old guitar with un-synchronised tremolo. Is this a good choice?

[@Curtismyguitarworks]

Definitely

[@jonathansanguily8113]

Nice

[@Wabin22]

1. Rosewood still exists and are allowed to be used on musical instruments again. 2. Fender just won't let us have Rosewood anymore on Mexico guitars because it's now more exclusive than Pau Ferro. US models gets Rosewood. 3. Pau Ferro is just fine, but too light and vainy looking for my taste. Find a nice dark one and I have no problems with it.

[@nimitz1739]

You can also stain it darker. Which is what a lot of people do with these guitars

[@billy1858]

would of preferred a 9.5 radius,apart from that,its nice!

[@QS-si3cq]

No such thing as "would of." It's would have or would've. How do you "of" would?

[@niloben659]

@@QS-si3cq Shut up you mong

[@workerdrone4516]

I dont understand pre ripped distressed look jeans and i dont understand "road worn" guitars.

[@noahbergman7777]

Then don't buy one

[@cleagymeen9465]

They feel really good, nitro looks better than poly, they age better and if you get a ding on it (which eventually will happen) it won't bother you Also you have no control over what you like and what you don't like, you just acquire a personal taste due to random events and circumstances

[@helixworld]

Agree. I like my Denim new. When I wash it, it should be the first time.

[@czechplastik]

You don't have to like them any more than you have to buy them. It's about feel.

[@QS-si3cq]

The good thing is that you don't need to.

[@isaiahcorrea4001]

This guy can sell honey to a bee

[@cypher9000]

Call me uneducated but all these Strats look the same to me. Even though I listen to all kinds of music I've never wanted to buy one.

[@QS-si3cq]

And yet, here you are, watching a Strat video.

[@voiceofexperience]

OK, you're uneducated.

[@LorePZ]

With a real rosewood fretboard, it would be perfect

[@nimitz1739]

You can have it stained and never tell a difference

[@lafemmeparallel]

@@nimitz1739 when its dry, and it will dry faster than rosewood, you will, they feel different. I still love this guitar and want it!

[@nimitz1739]

@@lafemmeparallel I have one that I bought in January. I’m gonna be selling it soon, and cheaper than what they go for new. which is around 1200.

[@nimitz1739]

@@lafemmeparallel I don’t see how it would feel different. When you’re holding down on a frat board playing guitar 95% of what you’re touching is the strings. Not the actual wood.

[@adamdoran235]

@@nimitz1739 Seriously? How the board feels under my fingers is probably the most significant influencing factor in how I get on with a guitar. I feel plenty of the wood under my finger tips on either side of the string when I frett. And different woods and lacquers make a huge and immediately obvious difference. Well to me anyway..?

[@therollband1290]

It’s too bad they don’t make these non-relic.

[@heine7230]

They do… original Vintera

[@wazda6488]

They do

[@KRAZEEIZATION]

Saw these in the flesh yesterday. Oh gawd, what a horrible idea and the worse thing is all the wear is in the exact same places and covered in a clear poly! Anyone that buys one is pretty stupid to be honest as it's a fake. Wear your own guitar yourself.

[@BlackDogOriginal]

Nitro cellulose

[@KRAZEEIZATION]

@@BlackDogOriginal Still gross. It’s a snowflake guitar for the “authentic” generation. Light nitro wears naturally anyway. The fact that someone is Pretending a guitar is old says a lot about their mindset!

[@lafemmeparallel]

@@KRAZEEIZATION a nitro fender with no wear is more expensive, this series is for us who cant afford those

[@padawan9127]

@@lafemmeparallel exactly, I just want a nitro strat. Just wish it had a proper truss rod adjustment and maybe a 2 point tremolo

[@strumminronin]

​@@padawan9127 And compound radius, and graphite reinforcement rods. If Jackson can do it....

[@solomonm1569]

Water :)

[@Livelaughlimpbizkit]

I have this in gold, I changed the pickups, took out one of the tone knobs so that it’s just master volume, master tone. hiked the action up (these feel awful with low action) and dialled it to how I like my fiddles. God damn this thing plays and sounds amazing! Honestly so happy with this guitar. I bought it used and it had low action, dead as fuck strings anf I thought I’d made a huge mistake buying it but now it’s my favourite guitar. I sound like a boomer “da bloos” prick

[@lafemmeparallel]

Is the neck chunky? Dagan says that but specs says 60s profile

[@celosemnexo]

Vinatge?

[@raulsign7]

lovely but the radius are impossible, 9.5 will be awesome and rosewood of course

[@sadcat6714]

So we’re not gonna talk about the acoustic tele in the back

[@voiceofexperience]

Yeah, f ing horrible, ain't it?

[@christopherglancy4975]

I wish these were not made out of basswood.

[@QS-si3cq]

Wish granted, because they are made from alder.

[@RickFoxx777]

Honestly, and no offense, but I feel that these guitars are very overpriced for what you get. I mean they have synthetic nuts, zinc blocks, 7.5 radius (which for me is unusable) and 60's style pups with plastic wiring and these guitars are made in Mexico, so I don't understand the "HUGE" price tag on them. The older Road worn series had the same issues but I like the texmex pups better than these that are on the Vintera Road Worn series. It seems like, unless you spend thousands of dollars on a custom shop strat you can't get what you want from Fender. I love fender strats and have around 20-30 of them, but for the last 10 years or more and for the exception of the American Original series and custom shop, I have not seen or played a single affordable Fender strat right off the assembly line, that I could play on stage without heavy modifications to it, i.e. pups, nut, bridge and neck etc... (neck to a soft V with 9.5 radius). I feel like if Fender is not careful they will price themselves right out of existence. Just my 2 cents worth Peace.

[@jjulch]

I tried one of these. Fret ends are cheese graters No thanks

[@colboysigmax]

Sorry mate, love your reviews but "relic" guitars are just sad, pathetic and above all, fake.

[@dc_miller5248]

hot take, bro

[@miraak9521]

it’s just a stylistic choice bro lmao

[@nimitz1739]

The guitar is pretty real. And sounds just like a strat

[@wazda6488]

I’m neutral on relicing, it’s cool, but it’s not hugely important, I just love the feel of the relic finish on the neck, super comfortable

[@nimitz1739]

@@wazda6488 Nitrocellulose also feels better than polyurethane on the bodies in my opinion
