Fender [Modern Player Series] Marauder - Lake Placid Blue Rosewood : Recensione di gertdik

Prodotto comprato nuovo in Febbraio 2012
Caratteristiche
La serie 'Player Modern' sono la prima serie di manufatti cinesi chitarre che portano il marchio Fender. Anche se la serie Squier 'Classic Vibe' già dimostrato come le buone chitarre cinesi può essere, ancora potrebbe avere la sensazione che mancasse qualcosa. Il Marauder è comunque il passo successivo. Mi ricordava un po 'di quella mattina in 82 quando ho comprato il mio JV (giapponese) Jazz Bass!
Alcune delle caratteristiche esterne di questa chitarra si ispirano al Fender anni '60 Marauder. Questo 'Original' Marauder non fu mai prodotta in grandi numeri. The Modern Player Marauder ereditato il corpo sottile e il logo della testata ('Fender' è l'unica parola). La forma del corpo è nuovo, somewehere tra una Jazzmaster e la vecchia Marauder. L'elettronica è un progetto completamente nuovo. Il battipenna madreperla dà alla chitarra un aspetto classico.

The 'Modern Player' series are the first series of Chinese manufactured guitars carrying the Fender brand name. Although the Squier 'Classic Vibe' series already showed how good Chinese guitars can be, you still could have the feeling that something was missing. The Marauder however is the next step. It reminded me a bit of that morning in 82 when I bought my JV (japanese) Jazz bass!
Some of the external characteristics of this guitar are inspired by the 60s Fender Marauder. This 'Original' Marauder was never produced in large numbers. The Modern Player Marauder inherited the thin body and the headstock logo ('Fender' is the only word). The body shape is new, somewehere between a jazzmaster and the old Marauder. The electronics are a completely new design. The pearloid pick guard gives the guitar a classic appearance.

Facilità d'uso
Questa chitarra è impostato abbastanza bene. Questo, in combinazione con i tasti jumbo, rende molto facile da giocare. L'equilibrio è buono, con solo un accenno molto lieve del collo-pesantezza se giocato in piedi. Il C-shape collo ha lo spessore giusto per la maggior parte dei giocatori e fornisce un buon compromesso tra giocabilità e la stabilità / sustain. Collo, tremolo e sintonizzatori guardare e sentire come una strategia riedizione vintage, fatta eccezione per i tasti jumbo.
Il tremolo è il punto debole di questa chitarra altrimenti grande. Bisogna usarlo con attenzione, altrimenti si desintonizzare la tua chitarra. Un peccato che non ha utilizzato la serie Squier standard di tremolo, che è economico, buono anche cinese.

This guitar is set up quite well. That, combined with the jumbo frets, makes it very easy to play. Balance is good, with only a very slight hint of neck-heavyness if played standing up. The C-shape neck has the right thickness for most players and provides a sensible compromise between playability and stability/sustain. Neck, tremolo and tuners look and feel like a vintage reissue strat, except for the jumbo frets.
The tremolo is the weak spot of this otherwise great guitar. You have to use it carefully, else you will detune your guitar. A pity they didn't use the Squier standard series tremolo, which is cheap, good also Chinese.

Suono
Appena si prende in mano la chitarra, si sente che vuole essere giocato. Questo è molto diverso da molti dei strats accessibili Stati Uniti (costa almeno tre volte tanto), che a volte si sentono come un pezzo di legno riluttante. Anche se suonato acusticamente, del Malandrino ha un tono brillante e vivace, che si traduce in un suono eccellente quando amplificato.
Dal collo al bridge:
1. Jazzmaster pick-up: Bigger-che-strat sorta di pieno e legnoso suono single coil;
2. Jm + coil-3 dal triple-Bucker: Glassy, come una strategia e un po 'più ampio;
3. Coil-3 dal triple-Bucker: Bright uno convincente come una buona posizione centrale strategia pick-up;
4. Triple-Bücker tutte le bobine: tono humbucker potente con un finale luminoso superiore;
5. Coil-1 +2 dal triple-Bucker: suono potente humbucker, ottimo per chitarra solista;
In realtà tutti questi suoni sono piuttosto impressionanti ed estremamente utile. Sustain è meglio che la mia strategia. Incredibile che un tale strumento a buon mercato e leggero può suonare come questo. Btw io gioco su un "12 combo tubo di 30W, ma anche l'amplificatore 10W transistor a basso costo in negozio sembrava fantastico.

As soon as you pick up the guitar, you feel that it wants to be played. This is quite different from many of the affordable USA strats (costing at least three times as much) which sometimes feel like a reluctant piece of wood. Even if played acoustically, the Marauder has a bright and vivid tone, which translates in an excellent sound when amplified.
From neck to bridge:
1. Jazzmaster pick-up: Bigger-than-strat sort of full and woody single coil sound;
2. Jm + coil-3 from the triple-bucker: Glassy, like a strat and slightly broader;
3. Coil-3 from the triple-bucker: Bright an compelling like a good strat middle position pick-up;
4. Triple-bucker all coils: Powerful humbucker tone with a bright top end;
5. Coil-1+2 from the triple-bucker: Powerful humbucker tone, great for lead guitar;
Actually all these sounds are quite impressive and extremely useful. Sustain is better than my strat. Unbelievable that such cheap and light-weight instrument can sound like this. B.t.w. I play in on a 12" 30W tube combo, but even on the cheap 10W transistor amp in the shop it sounded great.

Opzioni Generali
È costato solo 395 euro e da quando l'ho comprato, la mia E-sries J-strat non ha lasciato il concerto-bag. Se ti piace chitarre Fender, non può permettersi di perdere questo. Segnatevi le mie parole: questa prima serie di Marauders saranno tutti i collezionisti di oggetti entro 10 anni, molto simile alla serie JV di 82 anni. Così afferrare uno mentre è ancora possibile. D'altra parte, credo che se sei un trituratore o un vero e proprio 'Gibsonist' questa chitarra è niente per te. Fatta eccezione per il tremolo, che dovrebbe essere meglio lasciar perdere, questa è una chitarra eccellente. Questa è la prima chitarra che mi dà sempre una combinazione di accordi brillanti e vitrei e un tono lead grasso e solido.
Nel corso dei due chitarre che ho provato, la qualità era molto consistente. Così ho scelto il blu. . .

It cost only 395 Euros and since I bought it, my E-sries J-strat hasn't left the gig-bag. If you like Fender guitars, you can not afford to miss this one. Mark my words: this first series of Marauders will all be collectors-items within 10 years, much like the JV series of 82. So grab one while you still can. On the other hand, I believe that if you are a shredder or a true 'Gibsonist' this guitar is nothing for you. Except for the tremolo, which should be best left alone, this is an excellent guitar. This is the first guitar ever which gives me a combination of bright and glassy chords and a fat and solid lead tone.
