Bad Dog Custom Guitars - '62 Stratocaster Style in Fiesta Red with Nitrocellulose Finish
The Bad Dog Custom Guitars '62 Style Stratocaster in Fiesta Red combines the vintage character of '60s guitars with modern, playable specifications like a flatter neck radius and medium jumbo fret size. The Fiesta Red finish Plasticizer-free nitrocellulose lacquer allows the wood to breathe, promoting natural resonance and authentic aging of the instrument, achieving a tone that improves with time.
This model is equipped with 2007 Fender Custom Shop Handwound Abygail Ibarra pickups, renowned for their expressive and balanced sound, which enhances the tonal character of vintage guitars.
The electronics have been carefully crafted to maximize the dynamics of the instrument, combining a Treble Bleed circuit and a Paper in Oil capacitor. This configuration allows clarity to be maintained in the high frequencies by reducing the volume, avoiding loss of tone. The choice of this combination, together with the Abygail Ibarra pickups, seeks to provide a wide tonal range and a more dynamic volume control, allowing the musician to explore a variety of of nuances simply by adjusting the volume.
The neck, with a modern radius and larger frets, facilitates techniques such as bending and allows for a lower, more comfortable string action. Despite these modern adaptations, the guitar retains a resonance and sustain characteristic of traditional construction, thanks the quality of its components and its meticulous assembly.
The Bad Dog Custom '62-Style Stratocaster in Fiesta Red is ideal for those seeking classic character with exceptional dynamics and versatility, especially in genres such as rock and blues where tonal control via volume is critical.
