Good morning guys, first I wanna say I luv your channel you always show best gear as soon as it comes out. My question is during your opening jam you guys were using an envelope filter, which one was it, if you don't mind me asking. Peace guys
@Andertons Music Co damn thats a mouthful. Thanks for the info, is that the new one you just featured like a week ago. Anyway thanks again be safe Andertons peoples have a GRATEFUL weekend ✌️😎😁💨💨💨🐢🐻
Ah man, I do love that nitro finish. Cool colours too! Would absolutely get one, but without the fake wear. That way the guitar would eventually tell its own story, instead of that of a piece of sandpaper. That's just my opinion though and I totally get why people really like the look of these.
I bought the first 60s roadworn series in Olympic White then added 65 custom shop pickups and a cold rolled steel trem block. Best strat I have ever played and I have had tons from MIJ to AVRI. I was lucky enough to get a 2 piece center joined body and flamed maple neck on mine...obviously someone picked some good bits! And let's not forget the compulsory tone pot mod so the bridge pickup is useable.
I bought the 60s vintera road worn strat when they first came out and I absolutely LOVE it. It's become my main guitar ever since. I might just need to consider swapping for these pickups haha
For what it’s worth, I would definitely buy a nitro Mexican Fender without the factory roadworn effect. If it came with accidental cracks during shipping or whatever, no problem, I just think the factory ‘roadworn’ effect looks a bit fake. I like the look of a beaten up guitar, it’s just that “roadworn” doesn’t look like an old beaten up guitar, it looks like a new guitar that’s been deliberately damaged for a visual effect. One of the things that bothers me about roadworn is the matte finish of the body. Vintage guitars aren’t matte, they’re still shiney. If Fender could offer nitro non-roadworn in addition to roadworn, that would be great.
They used to do Special Runs of non Roadworn Nitro pretty often in the Classic line before it got replaced by the Vintera line. As far as I know they haven’t offered it yet on a non Road Worn Vintera.
I agree, although I just ended up getting a road worn one and hopefully my own wear will slowly make it look a bit more natural. I’m pretty sure Lee said once that the Mexican factory nitro finish just isn’t good enough to offer without factory wear to cover that up, so it’s probably unlikely unfortunately.
@@Jamie_kemp I’d be interested to know how the roadworn ages over time. I know someone who bought one 3 years ago and plays a lot in a band but the guitar hasn’t aged since and looks identical to when he bought it. It doesn’t seem to be as easy to wear in as some people claim.
I see from the links that there’s an Olympic White 70’s model with Custom Shop 69 pickups - would *love* to hear/see a demo of that one vs the Texas Specials 👍 PS thanks for all the great videos!
I have an srv strat with TS and prefer pretty much all the custom shop pickups over it lol they are way too hot to sound anything like a vintage guitar. The 90s model Texas specials in mine can sound good in certain scenarios (very few) but they don’t clean up well and seem to be too overwound (mid heavy) for what I’ve come to realize a vintage guitar “should” sound like. Slightly underwound neck and middle pickup around 5-6k resistance and a slightly hotter bridge pickup 6-7k make for an amazing setup. I assume you want a vintage sound because you’re inquiring about a vintage guitar but I could be wrong I can help point you in the right direction on a set of pickups if you tell me what kind of genre or sound you’re looking to get from them?
Got a lot of time for how loose Pete keeps his right arm when strumming. A lesson to us all, and Lee is very lucky to spend so much time with him. I'd love to watch him beating eggs and whipping cream. Maybe a spin-off cooking show would be popular; it could be titled 'Honore on The Hob'.
I've got a 2019 MiM RW strat. I love this guitar to the moon and back, recommend! But it's really funny how the relicing has the EXACT same pattern on every guitar :)
@@edwardprete There is not a poly clear base under the nitro, I have had one for 14 years and a lot of the original olympic white color is gone now after hundreds if not thousands of hours playing it, and I can assure you, it's bare wood.
I have a purple mischief maker FSR I ordered from Andertons, and it's my favorite guitar by miles. If you get one, you won't be disappointed, that's for sure. Also the radius is 7.25 on the tele style necks. Very comfortable, and I'm used to super shredder Ibanez/Jackson necks. Weird, right?
For all you wanting a nitro finish on your old Mexican Fender, just buy a spray can nitro kit from Stew Mac or other similar outlet. I've done it on a buddy's Squier (4 color tobacco burst) and it turned out fantastic and looks even better today than it did when I finished it a couple years ago (no it hasn't "relic'd", the finish is just starting to fade nicer together. I'm definitely going to do it with my recently acquired used Mexican strat someone set up with American hardware and pickups. Deals are to be had out there people.
@@michaeldoerksen2841 can’t afford it, don’t buy it. There’s a lot of brilliant guitars for 3/400 quid. Getting a nitro finish at this price is good value though.
Looks like im leading the cool kids this time having got me a metallic pinky/peachy wiv black guard, maple board Strat 6 or so months back. Yup i am 'da man' 😎
I'd love to see a sound like Phil Collen video I know you can get a Jackson PC-1 but would be cool to see how you guys might try and get close to the tone with pickups and rig. Such an awesome sound, super high production quality on their tunes, Pour some Sugar on Me and Animal, so gooood!!!
I like relic'd guitars and I own them, but the pummeling from the instrument cable head next to the input jack looks stupid to me. How does that ever happen in normal use?
Bros from over the puddle! It’s honestly been a few months since I’ve tuned in (sorry ;) Gotta say this jam although short was super mutha funkin good. Cap, Captain, Cappicola my dude-bro, your lix are getting soooo damn good! Pete is a super inspiration to me, effortless kicking any ass in earshot. I would have loved to have been in the room when you ordered these! Curious if you can order them with 22 frets? Or baritone…..😮
which effects were you guys using in the intro jam? specially from Lee seems to be a fuzz or octafuzz and Pete uses a envelope like pedal? thanks and cheers! by the way, one left handed purple strato with custom 69's, freeway 10 pos switch would be my perfect strato :)
The early 2008-2011 Road Worns was the best, not only did they have real rosewood, they also had a much more extensive relicing job and more desired colors like Olympic White and Sunburst.
Texas Specials were not intended as something new for SRV which he didn't have a chance to try. The pickups are a replica of the pickups which he was already using and they were intended for his signature Strat. SRV was using a standard pre-1998 57-62 pickup set. The resistance tolerance at that time was relatively high, so all what SRV has done is that he handpicked a 57-62 pickup set with resistance deviations that delivered the sound he wanted. The target value for 57-62 pickups was 6K, the tolerance was plus/minus 10%. Then they selected higher deviations from the target value for bridge and the lower ones for neck and middle. SRV picked 5.94K for neck, 6.27K for middle and 6.56K for bridge, and that's what SRV had in his Number One. All of what Fender had to do to design Texas Specials is to use their standard 57-62 pickup set and calibrate it to resistances chosen by SRV. That's all what Texas Special pickups really are. Technically they are still 57-62s, because Texas Specials' resistance is still within tolerance for the pre-98 57-62s (5.4K - 6.6K). Technically it is correct to say that the original Number One was loaded with Texas Specials.
Fender could choose to do the RW line without the template wearing, but choose not to. Ibwouod venture to guess that this is done to keep the nitro Custom Shop owners happy.
Spraying Nitro in California is generally not allowed and is problematic at best, but not so in Mexico. So if you want a new Fender with Nitro, odds are its Mexican. Fun fact - the Fender factories are less than 200 miles apart.
Would be nice if they come out with a separate line where it was just nitro (no dings etc) so you can age it yourself, not bad value considering custom shop pickups etc. I don't see the problem paying 1200 for the Mexican made, there's really not that big a difference, in some cases the cheapest US made are worse quality than MIM. It's not like ppl will know or even care you're playing one over the other at the same price point.
ahh road worn,, instantly identifyable by the indentical strike of the meat tenderising hammer just south of the jack socket... would much rather they save us the cost and release nice clean guitars that we can age ourselves.
I wish they would make a nitro finish without the relic, for us who love a nitro finish but want it to age over the years of play. The cheapest for this is the Am original which is 1.5 times the price of this.
Thanks to brexit I can‘t afford ordering from Andertons to Germany anymore. Even the pink Andertons sweater my kids get me as a birthday gift - customs and shipping nearly doubled the price of the sweater. But it’s my favorite sweater anyway. For a item at this pricepoint it seems okay but ordering a likeable guitar as seen in the video the customs will be to high
Can someone help me out and explain the "relicing" by the output jack? Is that supposed to emulate someone missing the jack multiple times aggressively? Also, love the nitro, but throw a strat headstock on these models....I guess that's how they get you to buy a proper neck.
I hate that Fender has shifted so many models to Tall Narrow frets. I'm sure some people prefer them, but I dislike them enough steer clear of them. Much prefer Medium Jumbo. Otherwise, this is a great model with nice features at a good price.
meaning like it will move more to vibraton than a stiffer product. but the vibration will move more inside thewood/ under the finsih with a poly finish

YASSS! Just what I needed to close down the week.
Thank you guys for the ultimate big muff 70s pron soundtrack with that intro! Shagalicous!
These look really cool. I like that the worn part is minimal. I bet they are fun to play!
I love Roadworns. Such a joy to see Captain and co still rocking the channel after many years!
I literally just ordered a JV Modified 50s Tele yesterday - and this video has already given me more GAS haha!
These all look great and I think people will really appreciate the upgraded pickups. Thanks!

They will eventually differ depending on how hard people use them.
Bc they’re all being done off templates. They also age oddly as there is a poly clear base under the “nitro”.
@@edwardprete There is not a poly clear base under the nitro, I have had one for 14 years and a lot of the original olympic white color is gone now after hundreds if not thousands of hours playing it, and I can assure you, it's bare wood.

@@Echoes- also just for clarity, I should have said a poly "sealer" (which is clear) not to be confused with a clearcoat.
I have a purple mischief maker FSR I ordered from Andertons, and it's my favorite guitar by miles. If you get one, you won't be disappointed, that's for sure.

There goes the wah again! Bloody awesome! 💥
Sounds like the theme from an 80's American sitcom 😎
Captain used Fuzz in intro jam. Coooool
Captain is sounding killer!!!!
I would kill for some FSRs with matching headstocks, especially some teles as you don't see that very often.
how about a RW nashville tele? Has there ever been one of those? And then add a matching headstock.
Can we get some jazzmaster roadworn love?
There's lots of Jazzmasters available. A rasp costs like $12 and an ice pick another $8. Have fun.

@@jackgarland28 You take all the paint off. I used a heat gun and a scraper and then sanded down the body to the bare wood.

That must be based on some kind of an inside joke of the finishing department😁
It doesn't! Unless you are blind perhaps?
Agreed. It looks like it was owned by someone who periodically lost all control of their right hand. Not great.
Agree
Drunk worn
Pretty sure Lee is the best possible Boss you can work for.
The cap Lee lick at 1.01 is the most tasteful lick I’ve ever head him play soooo tasteful 👌👌👌👌

nitro is more rubbery and alive like suseptable to dings
