Fender Starcaster Review and Modifications February 11, 2010
Elipsisfade (N.C, Mounatins)
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I didnt use the amp or anything else it came with
Ok, I oredered this guitar without the illusion of it being a great guitar. I've played guitar for 15 years and have fallen in love with the Billy Corgan sig. strat. So I chose the Startcaster as a spring board for modifications.
When I got into the Starcaster i quickly did an assesment:
1. the low E buzzed; if you have this problem then look straight down on top of the guitar from the top of the head stock. you will see that the low E notch has been cut deeper than the rest of the strings.
2. the tuning pegs (not the key itself) are wobbly, which lead to retunes after each chord you strum
3. the bridge isnt bolted down tight; mine was loose when i took the strings off. first i noticed the bridge "slinking" off the body when i'd do a bend.
4. the tone knobs arent aligned right with the numbers on them.
5. the fret board has an extremly weird varnish on it that cause the strings to make a scratchy sound.
6. i took the back panel off and saw that the tension springs were warped and werent putting to much resistance against the bridge.
7. under the pickguard was a sad sight: tons of saw dust and a couple extra screws that didnt have anything to do with the guitar were tossed in (two were magnetically stuck to the neck and mid pick-up. wiring looked ok, but bad soilder jobs.
here's what i did:
Machine head: i put black wilkinson E-Z lock tuners
Pick-ups: bridge- DiMarzio Chopper Mid- DiMarzio Fast Track 2 Neck- DiMarzio Pro Track
Nut: Replacded with a Graphite 1.65"
Tension Springs: DiMarzio Tremolo Bridge (guitar comes with 3; i replaced with 5)
Neck: sanded the frets and filed the fret wires; buzz is gone
I recomend strap locks!!!
oh and i didnt mention the whammy bar; it was bent in an odd direction, but i'm not Eddie Van Halen so i dont use one. 0;)
i hoped i helped
