I've been wanting to write this piece for a long time. And now I finally get to write the in-depth review of the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix! I, Rogvolod Zholdak, am used to write about musical instruments, because I have done so for years. You have hopefully seen my articles about the Fender Custom Shop Eric Clapton Signature Stratocaster Electric Guitar Black (SN:CZ539071) by Fender and the Fender Deluxe Hanging Guitar Stand, Black/Red by Fender. I also did a big piece on the Vintage Reissue Electric Guitar Strings (Light). So you might say I have the know-how to be writing about musical instruments. So naturally I was very happy when I got this product in the mail!
I've been a fan of Fender products1 for years and I was really looking forward to finally trying the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix and reviewing it for you guys. I found the best deal on this site on Amazon (You can buy the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix here.) and I didn't hesitate a moment. So I reached for my creditcard and bought one straight away. I was glad it had free shipping and 24 hours delivery when I ordered it because I couldn't wait! When my Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix arrived the next day I ripped open the packaging and was really happy with what I saw. As I said before I'm a huge Fender enthusiast but I can be very critical and objective too, especially when writing for my readers. :-) After testing it for about a week now I am confident that I have the authority to write this piece. So read on and I will tell you all about my findings and if you should buy this thing.
When reviewing musical instruments I usually begin with a summary, then a compact list of the pros and cons of the product after which you can find the rating and my conclusion and resources. So as you can read in the intro, I am really amazed by the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix. Fender has really set a new standard with this one. The durability is fantastic, and frankly; it just looks super. I know looks aren't deciding with musical instruments, but it just needs to be addressed. I mean the price Amazon offered was and is by far the lowest so make sure to check them out when you are going to get one. As I have tested some alternatives before, I will say none come close to the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix. Just the flexibility alone crumbles all competition and the quality also seems to be top notch. The famous customer service of Fender2 is always very happy to help if you have any kind of questions so if you ever run in to something with their products they'll be really supple with helping you find a solution. So just to recap; only positive things to say about the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix Voodoo Child Stratocaster, NOS - Black. Do read till the end tho because you there is a tiny surprise!
The list of pros of this Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix is going to be much longer than the conslist and the description3 this site gives already lists them quite well. To quote just an excerpt: "Solidbody Electric Guitar with Alder Body, Maple Neck, Maple Fingerboard, and 3 Single-coil Pickups - NOS Black".
When thinking of cons for the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix I had a way harder time. Sure, lower prices is always better4 and do you really need this premium quality? That's for yourself to decide. Here is the list:
You won't be shocked after everything I said before that I'm giving the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix Voodoo Child Stratocaster, NOS - Black 100/100, an A+ and 5 stars5. People in other reviews I've seen online sometimes say that Fender can never top the success of this product and maybe they're right, but maybe we can just dream ahead and see what they come up with next. So let's just enjoy the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix while it's hot!
This product really will make your life better and will make you a lot happier. (And I didn't even talk about the resale value6!) I've really done my best to be balanced in this article but it turned out to be so positive that I recommend you reading some other reviews, and you'll find out they will tell you the same goody goody story. So I can just say is that I fully recommend the Fender Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix Voodoo Child Stratocaster, NOS - Black to anyone in the market for it.
