"Sublime Guitar Craft" has a workshop in Yamaguchi Prefecture. Mr. Iwamoto, a builder, has been involved in musical instrument production for 10 years at a major manufacturer. A good instrument has many elements.

The quality of wood, processing system, playability, sound output, etc. are endless. Mr. Iwamoto launched Sublime Guitar Craft with the goal of creating a "really good instrument" that he envisions, and continues to create models with unique concepts.

This model that arrived this time is an original model with a Telecaster bridge in an orthodox strato shape, where the modern part is "NEW" + the good old part is "OLD" = "NEWOLD".

The pickup arrangement is also unique, with a Telecaster pickup in the rear and front, and a unique specification that combines a Strat pickup and a Strat and Telecaster in the center.

The body material uses Alder material that is well-balanced and easy to handle. The finish uses top lacquer, and the neck has a satin finish, giving it a smooth and smooth playing feel. The body shape looks like a normal size at first glance, but considering the playing comfort and balance when held, it is made about 1 cm smaller above the constricted part and 1 cm larger below the constricted part compared to a normal strat body. It is This makes it more stable when you hold it, and makes it easier to fit your body.

In addition, the volume is placed slightly lower so that it does not hit the hand when the bridge is muted, and the pickup selector is placed slightly outside so that it does not hit the chord stroke, and the angle is gentler than a normal strat. placed in. This greatly improves the comfort of playing. The bridge and pegs are made of stable Goto, and the pegs are of the locking type, boasting high stability.

The fingerboard is made of Madagascar rosewood, which is becoming increasingly rare and is no longer available to many manufacturers. It has become popular as a material with characteristics similar to Jacaranda wood, and is characterized by a fast response and a thick sound. The neck shape is the same as FENDER's 60's specification, and it has a thin and easy-to-grip grip that allows stress-free playing in any position. Frets are medium jumbo type made by Jesker.

The two mini switches turn the high-pass capacitor ON/OFF when the volume is turned down, eliminating the sound thinning that occurs when the volume is turned down. The other is the ON/OFF switch for the center pickup. The pickup selector is 3way.

[Pickup selector placement when center pickup is OFF] 1. Rear 2. Rear + Front 3. Front

[Pickup selector placement when center pickup is ON] 1. Rear + center 2. Rear + center + front 3. Center + Front

A wide range of sounds can be created as described above.

The pickup is equipped with an SGC pickup, the rear TLB592F has a bite feeling and is thick and has a crisp classic telecaster sound, the center ST586RW has a clear and crisp classic strat sound, and the front TLN580B has the tightness of a single coil. It has a sweet and warm sound.

The high-pass switch is very easy to use. When it is turned off, the sound gets a little thin, but it can quickly bring you to a calm clean tone. When turned ON, the drop in sound pressure becomes gradual, and the character changes without losing the sound. Person in charge Personally, I felt that the performance at about volume 8 was a pleasant and exquisite sound for both lead and cutting.

The chord strokes of the Telecaster, the cutting of the Strat, and even though the body is a Strat shape, the sound is a lively tone close to that of the Telecaster. Even if you distort it strongly, the sound will be separated cleanly without being crushed.
