- Today we have a pristine 1958 Fender Stratocaster to share, a find from our most recent GuitaRV trip in Idaho! This is a prime example of maple board Strat, with a beautiful sunburst and sound to match. Trevor is here to tell you all about it and we've got Aaron Hiebert on demo with the 1964 Fender Vibroverb amp we've been loving this week!
For more information on the guitar or amp, please give us a call or check out:

Am I dead wrong, or was that intro a take on Incubus' "drive" ? Whatever it was, blew my socks off! Beautiful!
You are correct. Aaron is the finest demonstrator of Strats on planet earth. Well done...again.
A double strat morning from Aaron… first the Korean and then the 58. Feeling oh so comfortably numb!
I think you mean Korina
Beautiful guitar (and amp) but Aaron is just a monster guitar player! Thank you.
Your guitarist is really cool ! Thank you and him ! Great stuff, great presentation, great sound and guitar playing. 🤝
Aaron and a strat is all I need to melt my worries. This guy and his incredibly nuanced style is an absolute show stopper, love these videos
Another amazing demonstration by Aaron! ECG digs up the treasure, folks!
Last year for the maple neck until around '71 or '72, and first year with the cherry sunburst ... an iconic piece of Fender history, right here that sounds as incredible as it looks as those bell ringing pickups sing out!
There were quite a few maple cap necks made in the ‘60s. Solid maple necks returned in ‘69.
Last year for the original run was 59
@@johnowens5284 Anything is possible. But in general, it was 1958. I started playing in 1959 and seriously, in 1961. My first guitar (I first played my brother's Harmony and then his 1960 Jazzmaster) was a 1954 Stratocaster my dad gave me for Christmas of 1963. Second, was a 1964 Stratocaster.I was actively following Fender back then. Thanks for your reply!
Sounds so incredible - dream duo right here!
Man oh man do I ever enjoy watching your videos. Now if you'll excuse me i'm going to play guitar. Keep up the good work.
Gunna be honest, Aaron Hiebert and vintage strats are the reason I subscribed to this channel… Just sayin 🤷♂️oh and vintage/boutique amps as well…
That's the best sounding Strat demo I've ever heard. That Vibroverb is a tone monster.
That's class Aaron, the Comfortably Numb cameo is perfectly placed, this guitar will never have been played better.
Love that Strat/Vibrolux combination.
Another beauty in both sound and looks thank you ECG and thank you Aron for the Gilmore🔥👍🤙
That was an epic piece of guitar playing... wow. Almost a spiritual experience.
Aaron killing it again! I heard some Incubus in there I'm pretty sure ;) Teach me your ways....no seriously, do you do online lessons Aaron???
the riff at 9:00 min is so groovy that I want to learn it :D unreal playing all the way Aaron, sound quality exceptional, such as the guitar. this channel is a treasure.
Sometimes I just sit on my couch with my headphones and listen to Aaron Hiebert...
Nice demo! 👏👏👏
That thing sounds really good. Way better than most.
Aaron, once again if I want to hear the best guitars played nakedly through killer amps, I just have to turn on ECG when all the talking, explaining, (forgive me) hyping, is done and they place the guitar in your hands, I know I’ll come away knowing exactly what that very specific piece will sound like. Thanks once again!!!✌️❤️
I am a subscriber and I enjoy the opportunity to see and hear all the various vintage gear you guys display. Thank you. Have you guys thought about telling the audience what the actual weight of each instrument is? Saying an instrument is light or medium light is a matter of opinion, ironically, in my opinion. Players and enthusiasts might be more apt to purchase the instrument with a more clear definition of light, medium, medium/light, ect... Keep up the good work and keep bringing the world of vintage gear straight to our living rooms. ✌️
Absolutely exquisite. Well done #aaronhiebert
What a guitar player oh yeah.
Haha Azza!! You the man!
👍🇦🇺
Years ago I had a well respected Luthier build me a ‘58 Strat replica. This after not being completely satisfied with the Fender CS. Until I heard this video I’ve always thought the guitar, mainly the pickups, demonstrated too much midrange, especially the neck position where everything from the get go sounded like SRV. He informed me the windings in ‘58 were the highest which contributed to that fatter sound. Now I know my guitar has “that” sound and is a pretty true representation of the real McCoy.
Aaron, you're a god to me
Too kind man!! 🙏🙏 Thanks!! 😊
this is an OH S**t moment, I had one like this.
This dude is the funkiest
I'm reading a 1964 vibroverb but am both seeing what looks like and hearing what sounds like a blackface Super Revererb.
the halo strats in my opinion; 1953 prototypes, ture 1954, 1955, 1957 Mary Kay, 1958 tranistion maple necks 3 burst, and we round off the list with a 1963, lam board.
Comfortably Clean
Metal shavings on the pole pieces!?
Why is bridge pickup hieght lower at high E side?
Amp sounds unreal. It must be very loud there.
Korina one was sweeter!
It's not a maple board, it's a maple neck!
Aren't they all 🤣
Non mais là...grave...
I'd like to hear someone who's a true master on a Stratocaster. Hell I'd even like to hear myself play this guitar! This guy sounds like anybody else I've heard on a Strat. The Comfortably numb solo as decent although not perfect. A little too jazzy toward the end there. Otherwise this sounds just like a Strat should only with the mojo sound that you're just not going to get with aftermarket modern boutique pickups. That finish is simply LACQUER - this isn't a generic term but a true animal unto itself. You don't hear people say "polyurethanes" or "Polyesters" as each of these are just one type of finish medium. Fender sprayed their finishes thin for two reasons - the first being cost. It was expensive to buy although in bulk they had to buy in 55 gallon drums so that they wouldn't have to worry about running out in the middle of production. Spartan Lacquer is who they bought from until 1955. After that the Telecasters which were blonde had to be reformulated to resemble the originals without much success hence the white blonde era as they could no longer procure this from their supplier for whatever reason.
The second reason Fender sprayed them thin is to reduce the amount of spray pattern also known as "orange peel" as this is what it resembles after being painted with a spray gun. This made any sort of polishing easier to do. This is the reason that the finishes cracked or spider webbed, or rather "checked" as it is known in modern circles. It's too bad that Fender couldn't get the original buildings or machinery that they originally made these on. It wouldn't matter much as they were already using CNC machines at the time they bought the company from CBS. This is what they use now as it's much faster and more reliable today and provides for much better consistency. Thank you for posting this so that we could all walk down memory lane - at least if any of us were alive then to hear the sound of legends.
