Hey Rob, the "teeth" on Jag pickups are there to increase the magnetic field, reducing hum and increasing output, making a "punchier" tone. They are basically extra polepieces.

@888Marco 6 лет назад

Yea i'am not Rob but Thank you for that information! :D

@christianboddum8783 6 лет назад

And it's basically what came on the inside of Lace pickups later.

@klbarber69 6 лет назад

Bill Carson, who designed the Strat, said that removing the “teeth” or “claws” and jumping the volume and tone pots improved the tone

@malcolmhardwick4258 6 лет назад

Thats for answering that question !

@crumbston 6 лет назад

Zax Zumu. You're pretty much correct. The Jaguar pickup is nearly Stratocaster dimensions except it is a little deeper which means more space for over winding. Otherwise the coil wire would need more tension which in turn causes the wire to stretch thin over the round ends of the bobbin. So now the pickup is more pokey, away from the harmonic sweet spot and into the fundamental. The claw picks-up a wider segment of the string providing some added mellowness. At least I think that was the basic idea. The question I have is, does the claw have opposite polarity to the poles? Here's a photo of the magnetic field of my CIJ Jag pup: imgur.com/a/3xauDie

@DrUmbreon 6 лет назад

Fantastic playing from the captain here, I thought

@yungxwill5688 6 лет назад

absolutely! I remember a few months back I was thinking that he didn't belong, but now the show wouldn't be the same without him.

@BtR76 6 лет назад

Yeah, agreed. I normally look past some of the comments of this nature as they might be construed as a little bit patronising. But the intro solo here needs acknowledging as it was super tasty with top notch note choice and phrasing.

@TheKrou 6 лет назад

He's always been great, but he'd always freeze up when it came to improv. I think its his improv specifically that he's been working on, since he has to do it all the time for these demos. Chapman is just an insane guitarist, so he would make most people look worse in comparison too.

@sundaynightdrunk 6 лет назад

He just gets better and better. And I notice he plays completely different stuff the minute he has a Strat in his hands, over any Les Paul. I love that the tone predicts what he wants to play. The instrument speaks to him and he answers.

@fraenkiboii 6 лет назад

@I.am_Groot 6 лет назад

Amo D True story. I continue to be amazed when I grab a USA Strat off the rack and it does not play as well as my MIM. And if you want that classic Fender sound, the Player series stacks up solid to the Strats in the $1000-$1800 range. No question the PRS SE series are good value as well.

@cgavin1 5 лет назад

Mexican fender is, imho, the true Fender brand as Lee says: its the spiritual successor to pre-CBS Fender. Its all more than good enough, but utilitarian enough to be affordable and .. giggable! I love it really. I also love that they have really made a niche for themselves with the Baja and the classic series. They have actually eclipsed US Fender imho. The two best brands in guitars money can buy: Fender (by a long way) then Epiphone semi-hollows. Casino, Sheraton, Dot, 339, Wildkat etc. All just insanely good instruments for the £2-300 they sell for!

wow, for 550 pounds you get a fender strat with the right logo, 22 frets and 2 point tremolo, wow, this is just like the american fender strat but 3 times cheaper, i am so impressed! i have to get one of these

@deldia 6 лет назад

Elateditse Cistryth inflation has been a bitch the last 15 years. In around 2002 I bought my American standard for £625.

@luciansirbu1784 6 лет назад

yes, but the money are getting cheaper each year. in 1954 the first fender stratocaster was about $260. but now it's $1600

@ThorneyedWT 6 лет назад

Don't forget Alnico pickups! Just ordered black one with extra black scratchplate (want to make it right away look like David Gilmour's Strat). Can't wait for it to arrive...

@lecorsaire2283 6 лет назад

I’m with you. The logo is extremely important for me. That’s why I never liked the old ‘90-mid ‘00s Mexican strats. Some older American standards (early ‘90s I believe) also used the transition logo. More recent Mexicans had the thick 70s style CBS logo. It’s cool but there’s nothing like the original “spaghetti” logo. I played a couple of these yesterday and they’re good for the money. The sunburst finish is not American quality but that doesn’t matter if you get a solid color. The string trees are cheap but I was impressed with the tremolo stability. It actually stayed in tune throughout my demo. Probably the best bang per buck for a new $700 ish strat style guitar.

@the.communist 5 лет назад

@@deldia around 1999/2000 I bought a brand new mexican strat for 300£

@reisk1777 6 лет назад

I like Fenders, always have. When I first started playing guitar I had a black-on-black-on-black Japanese 3-bolt Strat. As a beginner I didn't realize that it was great guitar, and being young and stupid I wanted something fancy, something professional, something seriously rock and roll. I wanted a Gibson Explorer or a Gibson Les Paul. What I didn't want was a Telecaster, which I thought was ugly, uninteresting and made for country players. Somehow during that first year of lessons I managed to save up enough money to buy a good used American guitar, and as I got closer and closer to buying my 'real' guitar the only guitar in the store that responded to my fingers, the only guitar that made me feel like a better player, was a homely 1987 butterscotch American Telecaster. Plain white pickguard, maple neck, all stock, boring, and I couldn't imagine buying it. I desperately wanted to buy the 1979 Les Paul Black Beauty, because I thought it was so impressive. But I hated the neck, the frets were tiny and the weight was awful. In the back of my mind I knew that I wanted the Les Paul because I wanted to show it to my friends, and I told myself that over time I would learn to play it. I remember being almost dazed as I put down the money for that Telecaster. Today I own four Telecasters, all of them sweethearts. I also own a bowling ball Stratocaster and Gibson Custom Shop Explorer with a lime-to-lemon flame-top burst that cost me almost $4,000.00 and that I never play. Maybe it's an investment.

@danielhartman6529 6 лет назад

Telecasters are very simple guitars with lots of balls. I love the 2 I have.

@jimhimesjr 2 года назад

First guitar I ever played was a late 60’s/early 70’s tele, can’t remember the exact year. A buddy who was helping me learn lent it to me. He was into more shredder guitars (BC Rich and similar). This was in the mid 90’s. Still can’t believe he let me borrow it for a year or so. Was not a cheap guitar then and was a family heirloom, his pap bought it new. I knew it was a pretty sweet guitar then but didn’t know how special it was.

@alexcruz3752 Год назад

Man these guys are awesome. I am a beginner and have a epi 1959 les Paul and one of these player strats in sss configuration. I thought I liked the les Paul until I got this strat. It’s very comfortable and you get a lot of guitar for the price. I live in the states and purchased mine from sweet water and it had no issues upon purchase. Very pleased with it so far.

The Jag pick up configuration looks new to me, and those colour options (Sage Green and Buttercream) for the Jazzmaster may have been used before, but not on affordable range in recent years :-)

@MrTwangstaable 6 лет назад

on what basis do you make that statement? are the internals same old cheap MIM quality or have they improved the pots, bridge, switch and pups?

@tonym7051 6 лет назад

H Kay let us know how it turns out!

@allstopblue5717 6 лет назад

H Kay I have read that they actually went to cheaper pots with these. Now using alpha instead of smooth cts pots. I have no idea if true or. Not. But I did indeed read that somewhere earlier today. The Pickups are supposed to be better though.

22 fret Mexican strats. That’s so massive in itself. I have two USA Malmsteen strats and always wanted a more standard strat with that extra fret. A cheaper yet reliably made option like this? Pew pew!! That hum-hum tele even, super nice. Also, Lee sitting on his phone for a whole 20 seconds, marvelling at the product info at 13:33 is hilarious.

@allstopblue5717 6 лет назад

CHERRYMVFF I hear you but why couldn't they simply offer that in a new model for this increased price? Instead of completely now forcing you to pay more for these which have cheaper electronic components than Mexican standards. It has been leaked that the pots are no longer cts ad they have been. People will like these. But plenty of people were happy with the standard as well. Why not offer both?

@YogiSizzle2 6 лет назад

•allstopblue • pots are cheap as hell to upgrade its not that big of a deal. This model has a much bigger upside than thebold standards imo. There are also 28 years worth of used mexican standards people can buy if they want, they aren't rare

@YogiSizzle2 6 лет назад

•allstopblue • its funny pau ferro was always an exotic upgrade option at places like warmoth and even Fender as it was only offered on a high end model, now that its on MIM its cheap and a downgrade. Pau ferro is a great wood, its just not indian rosewood, just like indian isn't Brazilian rosewood like the 60s models. Personally I think the price is fine for new pickups, 6105 frets, 2 point bridge. For me gig bags are inconsequential as I own over 10 guitars and have plenty of cases and an incase gig bag. So I see some of the arguments, but on the old standards in eould have chunked the pickups right away. Also I'd be wary of calling the pots junk until these thing are opened up and we see gut shots. Right now I've only seen on bad report on reddit that people are sharing over and over as if it is multiple sources

@powbobs 6 лет назад

YogiSizzle2 The Pau ferro on the expensive guitars looks. I’ve. Every pau ferro fingerboard I’ve seen on a sub $1000 fender has been some orange monstrosity.

@ChristopherDowning 6 лет назад

I'd say the USA built Tele/Strat is the first level of pro guitar - definitely the cheapest pro level guitar, as the Gibsons are like double the price.

@alihart7849 6 лет назад

Chris Downing I wouldn’t say that USA-built Fenders are the cheapest professional guitars by any means. If you want a great recording tone as a one off instrument in a studio then I see where you’re coming from. But as someone who likes to collect different styles of instrument and gig with cheap but dependable gear, I’d much rather use the cheaper Fenders or Squiers. They are still incredibly professional guitars at a reasonable price

@6riffmaster 6 лет назад

Agreed, I think a gig bag is important, especially at that price point

@antioche6276 6 лет назад

enrico amadori yeah, I got a mexican standard strat last year in december and I would have done with the gigbag. I move a lot (school, then rehearsal, gigs, etc.) So I had to buy one. But it would really hace been easier if it came along. *I AM LOOKING AT YOU CHAPPER*

First hand feel and sight is the best evidence, even over any number of reviews...

That maple pair were soooo sweet. I wasn't sold on a 6 saddle tele but the sound was very very good.

First things first, Andertons is my favorite channel. There. And I know I’m not the first to say this- but seriously, how are we supposed to have any idea what these guitars actually do when you start stomping drive boxes right out of the gate? I get that maybe it’s hard to make an entertaining long video with pure clean tones, but to at least linger on true cleans for a bit then dial up the drive gradually from the amp would give us some indication of what the guitars are actually doing. With demos in the style of this one I could not tell a Strat from a Jazzmaster from a Les Paul from a Hellraiser. No exaggeration. Captain’s run with the Jaguar is much closer to what we would benefit from!

Mind sharing what foot pedals you are using, too, please? And I asked too soon 21:22 but no links to them in the Description #ShunedPedals

I think: MXR Sugar Drive (the small blue one) > Fulltone Plimsoul > T-Rex Reptile 2 Delay

I was really excited about the Jazzmaster until I saw the pickup configuration. :/

@Lewb0b 6 лет назад

CatPick Studios the pickups actually are coil split with a pull pot on the tone knob so you can still get the old school tones from the jazzmaster, I tried one yesterday

@CatPickStudios 6 лет назад

I would prefer traditional Jazzmaster pickups. Coil split is always a compromise.

@CatPickStudios 6 лет назад

Yeah I just don't get it.

@tommyh1135 6 лет назад

i like the pickups but it doesnt look like a jaguar

@jmichalski01 6 лет назад

I get it, they need variety in their products, but it’s not a Jazzmaster if it’s got humbuckers. That’s just me, tho.

@MrWilson-WithaPbass 6 лет назад

Love the double black Tele ....I really need one of those MXR sugar drives ,they sound great !

@terminalglimmer 6 лет назад

The claws on the Jaguar pickups are there to help with RF shielding and alter the magnetic pull of the pickup somewhat.

You watch guitar review videos and skip the parts where they play the guitars? :D

@Ginanity 5 лет назад

Although these demos and showcases are all beyond amazing, it feels like "real" critical reviews are becoming increasingly rare on RU-vid/Interwebs. Any favourit channels/websites for reviews?

@leonardokula5742 6 лет назад

I like the consistency in their jams LOL they can turn any guitar into the same shit with those over driven bluesy riffs on the bridge pickup

I would love to see an HH player telecaster demo. Also cup breaking part. You guys make the most entertaining videos. Thanks.

Bought one of the Strats the other day after owning the Mex Standard, and Squier 70s reissue, and the player series blows them both away. Not as muddy as the Mex standard, and much higher quality than the Squier. Great decision.

I'd look for a competitively priced, used, American Standard before buying this new line. Little more coin but not by much. Good on Fender for changing things up though.

I just got one of these. My second guitar. I started playing in July. Super excited! My other one is a ESP EC-1000T with Fluence pickups. I think I have a good range of tones now!

If you look hard enough second hand American standards can be found for 500-600! I know what I’d rather have!

@ChristopherDowning 6 лет назад

Abso bloody lutely. I sold a USA Tele a few years ago for that sort of money - fabulous guitar but I needed the space and the money at the time - bad decision! So great USA builds are out there - £500-£700 s/h

@JSH335 6 лет назад

Sounds great!

@paulvsmith 6 лет назад

Yes, you're right. I have my eye on some good US builds for little more than 800. It's hard to say these are great value in that context.

@florianju5638 6 лет назад

Indeed. BUT you have that phenomenon with most brands if you consider the second hand market as well. In my opinion it's just not a fair/reasonable comparison. I almost allways buy (and sell) second hand, if I can. Even if it means that I gotta wait longer for something or have to do compromises concerning colours or something. Then again, in the new market, compared to other new stuff, those guitars are indeed good value and we can not expect Antertones to say "dont buy from us, go to the second hand market instead". That is allways good advice IF you are willing to do so ;)

@JSH335 6 лет назад

This is true perhaps I'm being cynical, and for some new is the only way to buy. £100 more than previous mexi range though! I think the second hand market is so full of guitars of all brands and shapes Fender and the rest need to keep it fresh with new spec models like these. That black Jaguar is a beaut.

@rowlandstraylight 6 лет назад

Having the tone pot there and on the bridge, even just set to 10 makes a huge difference. I don't tend to back of tone controls much, but pickups just sound wrong without them. I occasionally just drop in a 500kOhm resistor and 22nF capacitor for a "permanently set on 10" tone control. Unless it's a "shape guitar" it doesn't need to come with a case, i suspect most guitarists that aren't loaded will have a couple of cases or decently gigbags sufficient to transport enough guitars to do a gig. The teeth are supposed to shape the magnetic field and the extra metal has a very slight upper mid scoop effect in the way that a cover does, but without the drop in output.
