Mexico happens to be situated in North America actually.
Came here to say just that. Thanks. Good discussion nonetheless.
Made in North America: Mexiko,USA,Kanada und Grönland
You both guys just achieved great tones with every guitar, however I think prices are getting totally unreasonable, mostly because our wages haven't been increased in the same ratio.
Well Fender gotta get PAID mofo! LOL!
@@DMSProduktions right, I hope Fender workers can see the benefits of raising the prices as well. That's the whole point. Everyone gotta get paid but nobody of us workers ( Fender's included) have seen the wages increasing. However, big companies heads are getting richer and richer. If can't figure this out...
@@danielferrera8773 Whoosh!
There used to be a huge difference between the cost of US and Mexican Fenders. Now there’s not as much difference in price or quality.
@@SuperEdge67 prices in a well known German online seller. Vintera II Strat 50s style: 1100 euros. American Vintage II 57 Strat: 2100 euros. 1000 euros in Spain is almost the minimum monthly wage before taxes.
The first Vintera range had a modified 50s tele which included a 4 way switch exactly like the Baja including the S1 switch. Only differences I can make out are the range of colours (including bsb briefly which I’ve got) and the satin finish on the vintera neck. Both fantastic guitars for the money
I beg to differ. the Vintera II 60's strat is Specific to a 61 and 62 Start ONLY! This is evident by the placement of the second pickguard screw back from the top horn. (directly in the middle of the neck & middle pickups). From 63 on, that screw was closer to the middle pickup. The Fender Classic 60's (earlier models), were identical, and were renamed Vintera. FYI, BOTH have a ONE PIECE ALDER BODY.
I have the Japanese 50's Hybrid Telecaster 2021 model - very similar in some ways to the Ventera and looks very similar but has medium jumbo frets, American 50's pickups and 9.85" radius plus a 4th position for both pickups in series. I like that the Vintera Tele is true to the colour of the Nocaster including the neck tint!
Nice. Would you rate the Japanese one above the new vintera teles? I have the 60s Hybrid strat and it out shines my American one in build quality, feel and sound. Japan really know what they are doing!
Great to see Phil Collins and Danny Masterson back at it
That Nocaster was lovely. And what an awesome neck.
Thanks gentlemen! Both of these guitars are great, but for me the real star instrument in this is that stunning red Strat, I have to say. Nice one guys! ⭐👍
I tried out the 50s tele and the 50s strat and I think you’re better off buying a squier classic vibe for both.
I found both necks were covered in thick sticky lacquer that were uncomfortable for me (although give it 6-7 months and no doubt a ‘roadworn’ version will be released).
Pickups were great although neither matched the original American Vintage range of a few years back. The 56’ Stratocaster especially from that run was 10/10.
Agree completely, one of my main guitars is a 40th Anniversary Tele in matt Butterscotch, went yesterday to trade in a 1996 Sheraton against 'maybe' buying a Vintera 2 Tele,......what a shocker, came home with a Fret King Corona Classic (built in India!!),....100 times the guitar at half the price!!
These both have poly finish. Any Road Worn model will have nitro finish.
It’s so easy to sand off the sticky finish
Beautiful playing
Wow, Nev’s still got it
Last time I checked Mexico is still in North America 🤔
LOL!
Slip of the tongue - our apologies!
@@guitarist DOH!
Check again. It left! It’s been north of Greenland since 2022.
Really like Nevilles strat playing and tone any time I have heard him reviewing one on here.
I have the Vintera II 60s Strat and love it.
Shout out to the Baja Tele! I love mine.
Great demo chaps! Lovely playing and tones. Very tempted by the guitars 🎶
Vintera Strat: with a "middle" pickup you don't need a tele; with a "middle + neck", you can achieve that Hendrix & SRV tone. Great guitar.
I highly doubt a painter would say "well i just don't need that color or that brush." More tools are always better.
@@nohero178 True. The more, the better.
That opening riff 😍😍😍😍
Thanks for the review. It made for good watching. Loved the sound of the Nocaster, so soulful! I'm contemplating fitting vintera 50 vintage PU's in my squite tele in the hope that I can reproduce that gorgeous tone.
Played the Nocaster today, neck is great and I don't have big hands. The one I played felt lighter than most Teles too. I have a feeling my bank account is going to take hit!
Vintera II are killer guitars, even better than Am Vintage II imho. Just got a V II 50s strat and love it
i'll be buying a vintera ii 60s strat, but i'm not sure if i should save money for a Fender Av ii strat, what do you think?
The Strat sounds beautiful.
Every time a new version is issued , the 2nd hand market gets a bit more accessible. And rosewood, yes!!
Is that Heisenberg on the Strat?
Lol..where's Jessie
You’re damn right!
Nice review men! Just one question/remark. Fender’s website does not say anything about series switching and push/pull pots… does this really the case? Or did I missed something?
He said that he'd modded his guitar for that. In fact, it would have been far simpler to just use a 4-way switch.
I got both, why not for that price
I think fender is going to run out of new names for the two guitars. Not trying to be negative, but aside from different configurations, like pick up types, they could just make good ones, and not market them as something new.
waouuuuh cooool hello from Reunion island !!!!!
can anyone ID the brand of rack in the backgound?
what is the overdrive pedal that you are using it has a warm and deep sounding tone
J.Rockett Caliber 45 OD
sounds lovely@@guitarist
@@williama-d6 Jamie here - it’s seen off all challengers as the general purpose OD on my board over past few years!
@@guitarist ok I have not played my electric guitars in a while now usually play my tangelwood acoustic guitar but I thought my OCD fulltone over drive sounded good I also have a tube screamer mini
That intro was a thing ; ]
Very fruity intro playing! 👌👌 I'm off Fender guitars at the moment due to some very poor QC issues on a couple of purchases. 😒
I’m going to have a cup of tea and get me tele out of the boot
Fair price? Common, he honest, 1200 EURO is NOT a fair price for a B product (MADE IN MEXICO). Guitar prices have gone up shamelessly, it's very sad actually.
Easy to see why Eastman is so well loved, I know they don't make a Tele/Strat but what they do make is definately a fair price. And if they did make a Strat it wouldn't be made of three slabs of wood, yuck.
@@favoriteblueshirt
Everything Eastman makes is grossly overpriced for something made in China.
Do you know what year you're living in? Do you understand that resources like wood is far more expensive now? Do you get what the Ukraine war is doing to gas prices? Do you understand ANYTHING about the world or are you just here to bitch and moan like a boomer.
Lol, a "B product" because it's made in Mexico, gotta love the racism.
@@charlesbolton8471lol. You know that China makes high quality products…not just cheap Walmart junk, right? You think every household in China, including the wealthiest, is full of poor quality items?
Mexico is North America -- not South America (just a clarification for the geographically challenged.)
Amazing how one company can release the same thing year after year after year and charge more for it and give less.
Mexico is not South America
Mexico is South America ? hehe funny mistake I guess 6:50
So tired of these ridiculous Fender guitars that adhere strictly to old specs- 7 1/4 radius, and the rest of it. . Why adhere to old specs, which are rife with bad design flaws throughout, just to boast some sort of nonsense vintage vibe? Tint radii’s, having to remove necks just to turn a truss Rod, etc-- continuing bad ideas no one truly wants or needs just for the sake of tradition is ludicrous.
So many more models available which are modern and more convenient for your or anyone’s liking. These guitars are for those who really like vintage stuff, like me. It’s like asking why people still buy vinyls, or collect vintage toys, cars, memorabilia.
Why are you even clicking… there are plenty of modern strats out there, it doesent make me tired🤷🏼♂️
Find a good local shop and get a second hand Fender.
Mexico is in North America, ol' chap. 🤣🤣🤣
This Brit thinks Mexico is part of the US? For that price I would find a used American. Sorry.but I don`t want Made in Mexico printed on any of my guitars.
Mexico is now South America??? 😂😂😂
Ay caramba!
No not worth it...over priced...theres better for less money
Funny how everyone id knocking Mexican made. All the vintage originals in the 50's & 60's were to!
The're uding Bolivian rosewood
