Other than the incredible versatility and the sweetest tones out there (I mean, positions 2 and 4, try and beat that) I think a huuuge plus for the strat is - even though subjective - how crazy comfortable it is. There’s just something about the neck and body shape that makes a strat the staple that it is.
Leo Fender, being an engineer, never just did what came to his mind, he was never a musician. For the stratocaster he actually sat down with all kinds of players (blues, jazz, rock, funk etc) and for the first time took their feed back. The number 1 complaint of the telecaster was how uncomfortable it was (being a slab of wood) and Leo ended up with the curves and belly cut naming it "the original contour body" if my memory serves.
Just did a walnut body ,maple neck with SSL1 in neck and middle SSL5 bridge. Added the Gilmore mod to use all 3 at once also the neck and bridge together. The mod cost 6 dollars. Best sounding Strat I've played in 55 years of playing. Also used a Babicz tremolo. Which I love.
Loved this video. As a newer player with serious GAS, I started with the Strat because it's so iconic, then picked up an LP, some PRSes, and circled back to another Strat (or two). It truly is a versatile guitar (especially the HSS versions) and it's amazing to see the wide range of tones achievable with it. Been a few months since I've settled on my Strats, hoping to stick with them for a while longer to learn the ins and outs of them, and learn how to get as many tones out of them (not to mention they are the best feeling guitars in my hands).
This is why you need one of every type guitar! They pretty much all can do everything, but each one has it's own uniqueness. How about some filtertron love?
Put a 10way freeway switch in every Strat you own. Done. Even kind of humbuckersounds with the single coils are in then. Its 30-40 Bucks(EUR) and it makes a Strat an universal guitar.
@@Markcio182 There are no "humbuckers" the pickups stay the same. So the sound is not like real humbuckers its only "similar". The original potis are fine.
SUPER video guys!!! There are not many useful videos about tones on youtube ( not for me ), this video is super helpful, if you like me always chase that perfect tone. I would love more videos like this one, from competent guitar players like you.
Early 80s Gary Moore, Rory Gallagher, John Norum, Uli John Roth, 70s KK Downing, YJM and of course the amazing Mr Blackmore...of course a Strat can do heavy rock to early metal ! A Strat into a boost into a cranked Marshall actually has something no other guitar really emulates and that is a blast to play. Just try that Strat into a RAT (or pretty much any good boost/OD/distortion pedal) into that Marshall Studio Vintage head that's sitting behind you ;)
I would love to see you guys play some jazz stuff on the Strat. I know people would probably gravitate toward a 335 or a Tele for that, but I think the Strat is more than capable of doing those tones, especially if you play it clean on a neck pickup with just the right amount of amp compression and you fingerpick or just flatpick lightly. Love watching you two play!
I'd love to do that but we're really not good at playing jazz. So I think everyone is better off this way. Haha! Thanks a lot Jeremy, we really appreciate your kindness! //Kris

Great video and a good demonstration of how to think beyond the Strat stereotypes, while not diminishing what's so familiar and well-loved in the Strat tone language. I'd be curious to see you do a similar video for a Firebird, also maybe another one comparing a single-coil pickup to a humbucker with a coil-splitter.
Guitar Pilgrim guy uses his strat to play ALL songs, no matter what was used originally, and he sounds very close to the original versions with his strat, but he is a great player.
This is a great video series, really like this and the tele video. I’m trying to get an idea for what guitar Id want based on the tones you guys are displaying. Thanks so much!
Kris, Kris the amazing guitarist sneaking the Tele in the background. Guillaume you could do some great Dire Straits with a Strat. You guys are always fantastic. You have a peddle board that looks like the control panel of a starship from Star Trek..lol. Clean is never truly clean for great sound. Kris is the man. Go Thomanns!🎸
Das ist das schöne an der Strat, man kann wirklich alles damit machen, garten umgraben, zähne putzen, eine schöne platte mit hausmacher wurst drauf anrichten und vieles vieles mehr 🤠
You're right. A Strat is not going to sound like a Les Paul which is not going to sound like a Tele. But I think their point is that through amp setting and pedals you can get enough tones out of any one guitar to cover any situation.
Great sounds! Do you thing an HSS strat would be even more versatile? I'm trying to decide between a strat and a tele, and I'm considering the HSS strat as well
100% bro go for an HSS strat first (with a floyd rose if you use tremolo) and a regular Tele later. Even if you end up with a regular strat, there are easy modifications. Kris Barocsi has demos of Lil 59’ and Tele bridge pickups in his strat. I think a full size humbucker is nice to have though.
@@TonyStark-re3jx The addition of a humbucker and positions 2 and 4 gives it the edge in my opinion. There’s too much hum to properly play high gain stuff with only single coils. If you’re playing hard rock/metal, you may even want to consider HH or HSH with 5-way switch configurations.
This is a great video series, really like this and the tele video. I’m trying to get an idea for what guitar Id want based on the tones you guys are displaying.
What JayF said. It's all about the order of the pedals, that's why I mentioned it. Here's a video you might like on this subject: th-cam.com/video/daNcfyW1DvE/w-d-xo.html Cheers //Kris
Nope, no noiseless pickups. Same as in our tele episode where we used my tele: perfectly normal, old-school single coils. That's what we both say all the time: we barely ever have any 60 cycle hum. I pretty much exclusively play my tele live for the last 6 years (around 300 shows) and I literally only had 1 gig, where the hum was bad. I can live with that. :) Cheers //Kris
How to get every sound? Get 5 beautifull dirt pedals :D ... Lovely episode anyway ... Was bit expecting Guills newfound love, aka pluging into crancked plexi and doing it all from volume pot. Please do episode on ES guitars. And how to use the semi/hollow body feedback to your advantage (and how to avoid baaaad feedback). Love you guys.
I love the feel and playability of my strat but struggle with using it for some classic rock that was played originally on a less Paul…I am sure this is all in my head but does anyone do that
A lot of people say that the middle pickup of the Strat (or similar guitar) is useless on its own and it is just to be used with the other pickups. What is your opinion? Could you show examples when the middle pickup is a good (or the best) option?
Of course, you could/should talk about the other positions as well. (I know it is a lot about personal taste, but you could talk about the sound differences and just tell what "suits well" to each position. 🙂)
Hi, Master Tone Poti: ja; zweite Poti tot: nein. Diese Strat hat ein Blend Knob unten, womit man den Halspickup dazu mischen kann, egal wo der Switch gerade steht. Ziemlich cool. Ciao //Kris
I always found the Les Paul was a guitar that removed the musician's character from the playing. It is so limited in its range of tones that each player's distinctiveness disappears. The Strat doesn't do that. It allows players to find their own voice so we get the wide diversity fro Hendrix to Knopfler to SRV and on to Clapton. Each have their own distinctive voice and all are different to Buddy Holly and Hank Marvin, all playing strats.
Super strats for super cats Once you go Jackson you never go back son, I love my MIJ rhoads, and a buddy gifted me a red Kelly performer PS 6t , can y’all talk about guitars with massive cases? My Jackson Kelly has a case larger than the table y’all do the livestreams from!
Ohh dude, those cases are the worst thing that can happen to a guitar player. haha! I used to gig an ESP (MIJ Edwards) Alexi Laiho for a few years and I hated that huge case. 😅 I ended up getting a really good gig bag for it and I was a happy man. I'd love to make a 'massive case type guitar' episode in this series. Let me write the idea down. :) Cheers bud! //Kris
14:58 Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Gary Clark Jr. was in the house as well!!! Well I'm numb ... yeah woman can't feel a thang! You guys can't see this, but I'm making stank faces. Awesome!
Clean, to me, is JAZZY clean -- NO distortion whatever. I've played funk and RnB for decades. For these musics, you need to have no edge to your guitar sound because you may have to share the sound stage with many different instruments. Think Earth, Wind, and Fire, with maybe 10 or 12 people onstage at once. Dense mix! In a few instance, you could add just the barest edge to the sound, to give a little extra slice to the top end on chords.
@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses Kris It was and Guillaume’s resigned expression said it all Frankly made my Day.. a tad bored Can’t do Much post op just now and then The Thomann Twosome terrorise my stitches 🤪🤪🤪🤪
The Strat is a wonderful instrument, very ergonomic, light, versatile and beautiful. Oddly enough, I prefer the Tele: mine is beat up, ugly, bulky but it’s built like a tank, gives me a myriad of sounds, has one of the best necks ever and is a tone machine… =:-D
In isolation this is fine, but if you would pick any humbucker guitar and a/b you would immediately hear how much tighter and defined a humbucker is with a lots of gain. I don’t say that strats can’t get a nice and useable distorted sound but they will sound much less focused. There is a reason for most modern guitar players using humbuckers
Greatest guitar ever made = versatile, comfortable-to-play, Iconic-tones.
Sg is better
Other than the incredible versatility and the sweetest tones out there (I mean, positions 2 and 4, try and beat that) I think a huuuge plus for the strat is - even though subjective - how crazy comfortable it is.

I don’t find the strat to be more comfortable;e than a tele, especially sitting down it just wants to slide off my leg .
The only guitar that is more comfortable is the jazzmaster
Just did a walnut body ,maple neck with SSL1 in neck and middle SSL5 bridge. Added the Gilmore mod to use all 3 at once also the neck and bridge together. The mod cost 6 dollars. Best sounding Strat I've played in 55 years of playing. Also used a Babicz tremolo. Which I love.

Well yes, but how do you get a _clean_ humbucker sound out of a Strat? "Every" is a big word. I suggest caution when using it.
Exactly, you just can't. Conversely, you can't have a Strat neck pickup clean tone on a LesPaul, even if you split the Humbuckers
