Hi Dave !!! Great channel you have ... my uncle worked with Leo in Fullerton in the mid 60’s he was in R& D for Leo .. designers pickups and bridges for jags and strats When he left to work in in nasa Leo gave him a twin reverb with 120 watts rms and twin jbls He had tones and boxes of strat , tele , ahah , precision pickups warped individually in wax paper he designed several guitars for fender and himself a steel guitar / guitar player worked for pee wee king band a country& Western swing band back in the 40s and 50’s toured the entire planet at 15 years old ... a true genius long story short .. I bought a strat at a local Dallas store in 73 it was a pre cbs white for 125 back then ... he took it apart and set it up for me and told me it was a pre cbs it was perfect ... being a vocalist. I was a mediocre guitarist but a very good vocalist and trailed the us for 12 years in a row Again .. my amp was a Marshall 50 watt with a slanted 6 10 cab .. my fav amp But ended up focusing on mty voice and gave my strat to a blues guitarist like a Stevie Ray ... his name Gerry rose .. from Plano , Tx a great guitarist ... this was before SRV 72 73 he loved my guitar and I had to have him own it my point is my forte was in voice ... his in blues and I gave him my favorite guitar I ever owned ... it was home where it belonged And by the way my uncles name was Roy Ayres and he made the steel guitar Hall of fame in 2005 very proud as he and my aunt Shirley had a huge part of my career in music Toi know you have to wonder what that guitar and tons of other melody makers , les Paul’s I bought in pawn shops over the years would be with today ... thanks for reading 🙏☮️🙏☮️💯🎸🎸🎸🎸

Hi Dave, to me the 62 and the st62 sounded most similar! They’re all cracking strats. I wouldn’t rank them however because I know from owning a number of strats myself that depending on the day and my mood I can prefer the feel or tone of one over the others 🎸
@hotblackdesiato34512 жыл бұрын
If you look at the position of the upper scratchplate screw that sits between the middle and neck pickup, the ST62 has it in the wrong place if it's trying to be a '62. In April of 1963 Fender moved that screw back closer to the middle pickup. This has been a public service broadcast(er) by someone who has too much time on his hands. God, I'm lonely.

I love videos like this. I'm a big fan of the American Vintage line. In my opinion, the most accurate spec'd reissues were made between 2012-2017 (the 4th Strat in your lineup is a actually a 1965 RI from this batch.) Fender went out and found vintage guitars and took them apart for reference. One of the things I noticed on the guitars from this era, they were sprayed with a clear lacquer like on the originals instead of the fake orange/yellow tint they used previously and currently. The reason vintage Fender guitars have that color, is due to the yellowing process in the environment over time (sunlight, smoky bars, use, etc)

Hi Dave, I’m slowly ploughing through your videos, there’s hours of entertainment on your channel, thanks so much! I liked all these guitars, in their own way they have their strengths, & I thought the St62 sounded closest. However it’s all subjective, many things can affect tone, one ‘62 can sound different to another depending on what life they’ve had. I have 3 Strats at the moment, a 1982 AVRI ‘57 with maple neck, a newish Professional 2 also with maple neck, and I recently bought a 1989 Korean Squier with a rosewood fingerboard on a whim. It’s much like a ‘62 reissue. The Pro 2 is a totally different animal as expected. However I stripped, cleaned & rebuilt the Squier using all the same settings as on the 1982 AVRI, such as string gauges, action, pickup height etc. The feel of the neck is very similar to the ‘57 RI too. I swear blindfolded I couldn’t tell one from the other. It just goes to show if you pay enough attention to detail it’s not always about price & value. Mind you, I wouldn’t turn my nose up at an original 1962 Strat. Incidentally, I have a Vintage 2 ‘61 in Fiesta red on pre-order & I’m patiently waiting for that 😁

Hello, thank you for the direct comparaison ! For me they have all the same kind of tone. The only different is in the frequencies. For me the best, more balanced, is the 3rd (if i have to just pick just one). But if i can choose with my taste, i'll take the 1st, and the 2nd (to have 2 different kind of typical strat sound). Ant the the closest, for me, would be the 3rd.

Hey, dave great video was wondering if the 62 has a nitro finish on it and do you think that would effect the tone because of it? Im thinking of getting a 60s pro because they have a nitro finnish on them. I recently bought a gibson sg and love the nitro finnish and neck on it. My LTD and wolfgang have thin flat necks and im not comfortable playing them anymore. Ibread dave murray put a 59 neck on his strat. Would that type of neck be simular to a SG?

Hey Dave! I will agree with what others have said. Sound wise, probably the ST 62 is closer to the original. HOWEVER, to my ears, both yours and the newer Strat sound fuller: more bass and more mids than the other two. The newest one is loud! The original and the ST62 sound brighter than the others

The pridge pickup on Carina's '64 reissue is powerful! The other three weren't near to break the amp up, but the '64 reissue is RIGHT on the cusp! The Japanese reissue is the one that's closest to the original, though. The Mexican one was the furthest away. Way darker than the original. This is through the internet and a set of old-ish JBL PC speakers, though, it must be said.

I was suprised at your verdict. It might be KZbin compression and /or my ears/speakers but I thought they all sounded fairly similar on the neck pup and Mr.White sounded 'darkest' (less jangle, more mid-range) on the Bridge pup compared to the '62.

After watching this, I sort of stopped caring about what sounded like the '62 and became more interested in just listening to Mr. White. That mid-range gives it a fuller, thicker tone that I prefer to the scooped early 60's Strats. It's warm but still dynamic and retains just enough jangle. That is a GREAT guitar and I can understand why it's your #1. To my ear, it's got more mojo than the '62.
@400_billion_suns2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I agree. The sound of Dave's #1 has something special and unique to it. It has a very balanced tone. Not thin, but not dull either. The highs are smooth but still have that strat "chime," and there's a nice amount of low-mids that even the '62 lacks.

The vintage Strat was obviously the best sounding in all ways. The white one sounded a bit shy, pulled back and muffled compared to the vintage. The one from 1990 sounded a bit thin but more open compared to the white one. The American Original (I think it is) sounded like a mix of the white one and the 90’s one, it had the fatness of the white one and the openness from the 90’s one but lacked character compared to the white one. But honestly, none of them compared to the vintage one. If I had to pick one of the 3 non-vintage ones, I’d go with the white one. It sounds most in the ballpark of the vintage one. Great video, love these kinds of comparisons. I do them sometimes with my Strats.

No horse in this race, they all sounded fine. We have the original 1960's vs the 1990's, the 2000's & 2010's versions. And it was pretty interesting to hear the various regions of the world's decade of reissue. Not sure if that was coincidence or not. Since the sound was a game of hand grenades close, feel is another criteria. Your assessment is kind of what I expected, the Japanese (Asians across the board really) can dial in anything with their manufacturing really and beat even the USA 2017 for matching the feel at least. And this is USA California team of Fender employees making the most recent of the reissues. I can't hear enough with the computer to say even which I preferred, depends upon the kind of mood I'm in and what my in the moment interpretation is. Would've been better if any of us were in the room.

Comparing several strats with stock electronics may sometimes miss the point. For example: I have a 1965 strat with an original volume pot of only 230 KOhms. At first it was inferior to my 1962 Strat. After I swapped the volume pot for a 270 KOhm, it sounds just as good. Even the pickups don't matter that much. In my opinion, most of the sound is in the electronics, if the rest of the guitar delivers acoustically as it should.

the ST62 sounded the closest to the original 1962. The others sounded like they had more low end.

Have to say they all sound great but your white strat has more bloom than the other 3...I thought Queenie's strat sounded really close to the original...that white strat is special mate

I think you used Mr White to play a rendition of Maggot Brain, which was the best artist interpretation that I have heard.You should team up with Lili Haydyn a violinist that also does the tune equal justice.You are a great player. 🙏🙏
