2010 American Special Stratocaster® | Part 2

Stratocaster Taken Apart


In the previous post, we took a look at the external features and specifications of this two-tone sunburst American Special Stratocaster®. Now that it's been taken apart, I've noticed a couple of things. For starters, the normal Switchcraft #11 output jack socket has been replaced with one that's "Made in Japan." 

Brass grounding plates have also been added to the undersides of the pickups, and a treble bleed circuit to the master volume. Besides these mods, the pickup and control cavities have also been shielded with copper foil; which is a rather nice touch.
