The custom Char Original pickups give it a classic Strat voice with excellent clarity and response, and the vintage-style layout keeps the instrument true to its inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2102\" data-end=\"2389\"\u003eThis model is also known for its deeper neck pocket design, which contributes to a slightly different feel and response under the fingers. Combined with the vintage-style tremolo and 7.25\" radius, it offers a very distinctive playing experience compared to standard modern Stratocasters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2391\" data-end=\"2402\"\u003eTone \u0026amp; Feel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2404\" data-end=\"2725\"\u003eThis guitar has the kind of lively, articulate tone you want from a great Strat, with plenty of chime, snap, and warmth across all pickup positions. The custom single-coils deliver excellent note separation and a sweet, expressive top end that works beautifully for clean playing, blues, rock, and more dynamic lead work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2727\" data-end=\"2956\"\u003eThe C-shaped neck feels comfortable and easy in the hand, and at 7 lbs 8 oz, the guitar is nicely balanced without feeling too heavy. It has a very responsive, broken-in kind of feel that makes it easy to connect with right away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2958\" data-end=\"2979\"\u003eTransparency \u0026amp; Photos\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2981\" data-end=\"3348\"\u003eAs with all Guitar Chimp listings, detailed photos are provided of the actual instrument.
