 Player Opinions - Fender American Deluxe Fat Strat   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
The floyd Rose licenced non locking vibrato/tremolo on the other hand is a wonderful invention, and I like it better than any other non-fine tuning vibrato/tremolo that has ever been made by fender.
I ended up replacing the neck on this guitar with one from a beat up 1986 Fender Strat that had a better truss rod.
I also kept the roller nut on the guitar after switching the necks, but I also felt the Buzz Feiten tuning system was nessessary to improve it's tuning integrity.

It doesn't have neck binding, huge trapizoide markers, or a thick finish on it, just the softest, fastest wooden neck on the face of the earth, sometimes the strings feel just a tad loose, but that's just because the neck is almost too easy to play on.
The body is traditional strat, it isn't all box-like like some of those cheap copies are, it's got the rounded 3D contured shape I expected from a good Fender.
One thing I do want to say about the pickups, I just can't get a wailing strat tone, 'cause the bridge doesn't have a single coil, for this reason, and this reason only, i'd subjest getting an american fat strat 'cause it's got s1 switching alloweing you to change the hummbucker to a single coil.

You can just get a regular fat strat and block the trem, or put more springs in the back, so it won't move.
I'm gonna get some more springs for my strat this summer, right now I have to keep in in D-standard to keep the bridge down, but once it's touching the body, no more tuning woes.

The humbuckers are pretty nice and mellow, nothing special, but alright....player friendly probably the best word.
Tuning issues are along the lines of the classic Strat qualm of extensive trem use throwing it out of whack, which it does, but some set ups can get it damn close to never going out.
doesnt sound like a strat though, if ur looking for that get single coils.
