Hey y'all! It's been a while since posting here and I thought this would be a great place to ask this questions!
I have been itching for a more vintage sounding strat without paying custom shop prices and have landed on either a Silver Sky or the new Fender American Vintage II 1961 Strat. Only problem is both models are practically unplayable in store where I am, I've been EVERYWHERE and haven't been able to try either model.
Does anyone happen to have both or have tried both and can tell me their thoughts? The Vintage II seems to have more chime and high end from videos I've watched but audio compression on youtube really messes things up.
I know the Silver Sky will be better in terms of QC, fit and finish, fretwork, and all of that. But I just want to be sure it has that "sparkle" and "chime" that the 61 strats seem to have.
Would love to hear from you guys! Thanks so much.
