San Diego - HSH Mahogany Stratocaster
|
The SanDiego is a HSH superstrat with two humbuckers (neck + bridge) and a middle single coil. The humbuckers are equipped with a switch for Series / Split / Parallel mode and connected with standard wiring. In place of the tone of the bridge there is the control for Black ICE (passive overdrive). Switchable Treble Bleed and a switch dedicated to the activation of the neck pickup when the other two are active (positions 1, 2, 3). Whether for tone and treble bleed were used Orange Drop caps, 500k pots. Mahogany body, has a weight of approximately 4 kg... but not so heavy feeling when playing. Very tapered neck joint to make it easier to use the keyboard at the 22 fret also. |
