With a list price from Fender of around $2295 (or £2295 in the UK) the Jeff Beck Stratocaster is an expensive artist signature electric guitar. And in these days where every dollar or pound matters there should be some way of obtaining one of these guitars for a bargain price. The fact is, there IS.
Want to see how I built a Fender Jeff Beck Signature for only $1400 brand new? Join me in this video as I put together the parts and unveil the finished guitar, saving a ton of money in the process. Don't forget to subscribe for more guitar-building adventures!
In this video I show you the neck and the body of the guitar and I fit the neck and set the guitar up, then I show the results and then Alan Bruce and I play a couple of short tracks each. Don't expect Jeff Beck playing! We can't do it!
But the important thing is, that I really did buy this guitar for about £1350 for basically brand new parts, so buying one at about 30% less than list price is a reality that some might not want you to know. Fender? Well I'm sure they might be a little unhappy how you 'dodge' the list prices and let's not even mention the music retailers... but it is a genuine way to buy almost ANY Fender guitar model . whether signature, run of the mill, or even custom shop guitars cheaper than the list prices and likely cheaper than those music retailers would sell it to you.
And what is the result, well you are going to see it played rock music and YOU decide whether this guitar is as good as one from Fender or their music retailers?
And while you're at it, I want you to post below which guitar amps we used on each track. What I can tell you is that Alan used two amps and I only used one... but put your opinion below and tell me EXACTLY which guitar amps were used - that is, if you can.
In the middle of this video review I discuss counterfeit guitar strings that were bought by me from Amazon (Ernie Ball Super Slinky 9-42), and I would like you to tell me which pack on the screen (either the left or right pack!) is the counterfeit pack of strings. And remember buying from online sellers like Amazon sadly is one way to end up with counterfeit strings.
The finished guitar (it did not take long to complete and almost anyone can do it in my opinion. So go and check out the links.
I bought these parts personally and this is entirely an none sponsored review. My opinions about the finished Jeff Beck guitar and the Stratosphere (where I bought the parts on eBay) really are my own! You can completely trust the contents of this review to be an entirely genuine opinion and if ever I had issues I always say so.
