Ordered my purple tele last week and it arrived on Friday. I’m afraid I’ll have to send it back, I think it’s broken. It sounds nothing like when Pete plays. Seriously though lovely guitar 🤘🏻🎸

Just got my Daphne Blue from CME. I already have 8 Fender Strats including 3 from the Custom Shop. I had been holding off for many years looking for just the right Daphne Blue Strat from Fender. This was the one!. OMG, I think this just might be the best sounding Strat in my collection. The tones sound very snappy and clear (just what I hear in my head as to how a Strat should sound like for me). I also had just bought a Limited Edition Vintera 70’s Strat with Custom Shop 69 Pickups. I thought THAT guitar was the best sounding in my collection, until this one arrived. If you can get one, do it. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Thank you so much Anderton’s Music and Chicago Music Exchange. I believe they knocked it out of the park with this Limited Edition run. 🙏🏼
that daphne blue one does it for me man. i guess i’m saving up for a few months. i’ve never spent that much on anything hobby related but i love that color. they sound amazing, look amazing, and the price can’t be beat, even by US pricing. 1,275 for a nitro relic finish in my favorite strat color, with the nice creamy vintage pickups. cme should be charging more for those specs.
Didn’t realize it but I wound up getting 1 of the 10 from Chicago music exchange. Weighs 7.4lbs and absolutely jams, It’s slowly become the daily driver in the fleet. Thank you guys for spec’ing this guitar the way you did because it checked all the boxes aside from fretboard that I wanted. I had accepted the fact that I’d have to shell out for a custom shop but when I saw this online I bought it pretty much instantly, only thing I asked was to send me the one with the darkest fretboard they had and they did. The checking and satin like nitro surprised me at how good it looks in person. Thanks again!
Our first batch has already sold through. But don't worry, we have more available to pre-order & they're arriving over the next 2 months! If you’re thinking about pulling the trigger on one of these highly limited Fender Road Worn Guitars, don’t leave it too long! 🤘
I’ve been waiting for these to be released since the Tonemaster Blonde Deluxe Reverb/Twin video where you mentioned the FSR’s. I’ve gone for a vintage white, will happily wait until end Nov for my pre-order, it’s a great spec guitar for the money. Nice one guys.
Thanks guys! You just sold the white one to me from CME since I live in the states. I saw a regular vinterra road worn 50's at guitar center which i loved and remembered this video and searched around for one since I remembered these came with better pickups. Looks like a killer guitar and sounds great! Can't wait to get it!
@LightSoundGeometry Analog Electronics engineering department stores stores restaurants serving serving god god forbid forbid that means we had hoped for
lee might not be the best guitar player, but he is getting a whole damn lot better. that's so nice to watch. also the whole crew encouraging him to play is creating a nice ambiente
Squier have been making some quality gear. I just recently picked up a sunburst strat made out of their Indo plant and it beats my MIM fender and is probably on par with my American made strat from a few years back.
I've got a 2018 indo vintage modified in sunburst I've owned an American hard tail 40th anniversary I prefer the squier the American was over twice the price I just couldn't get along with it.
Just recieved mine from CME in Candy Apple red. I just love the way the guitar feels and plays. As an added bonus it has a flamed neck. Thanks for specking out these strats with the true 59 pickups. A real 59 is my dream guitar but this fills the void as I will probably neverbe able to afford one.
jdl that’s the thing, PF can look better than RW, but it’s so inconsistent. I was lucky enough to get a pretty dark and consistent PF fretboard on my only guitar with one, but I’ve seen plenty others with an ugly orangish stripe through it. And feel comes down to preference, I think.
Roadworn Strats are killer guitars, I stuck a set of Seymour Duncan psychedelic Strat pickups in mine with a upgraded wiring harness to include a treble bleed, amazing guitars.
Fender used to do the Highway One guitars; same thing, nitro finish, vintage spec hardware etc, but NOT reliced and USA made that was affordable. I'm sure this will make those prices go up!
I’ve found with Gibson the quality is in The custom shop, however I had a custom shop strat and it felt no better than an American made strat nor did it sound any better. These strats look and sound great 👍
Finally made my first Andertons purchase. Resisted the previous purple teles, strats and jazzmaster but couldn't resist one with the twisted tele and nocaster pickups ☺
They are amazing indeed, but 50/60 they are not (two point tremolo and 9,5 radius, S1 switching, thin neck, fender should have given them a different name I think) I almost bought the 60 white strat because of the finish on the neck though.
These special Vinteras are quite nice! I once owned a Vintage White Strat Plus Deluxe (ordered it out of the catalogue in '96) and I recall my sales-dude at the shop (Eric) telling me Fender wanted to call it "Nicotine White" but the PC Police wouldn't allow it! With a vintage colored maple neck, black pearloid dots, Gold Lace Sensor pickups and the two point trem with the LSR roller nut... man... that guitar player and sounded like a dream! I wish I still had that guitar! Off to dreams of guitars... life could be worse! 🎸😎
I just wanted to tell you guys that I recently received my Daphne Blue model from CME and, after years of not having a Strat, this is by far the best Stratocaster I have ever owned. Its quality far surpasses that of other “S“ style guitars costing much more. It looks great, sounds great and plays great and I am constantly shocked at what a great deal it was. Thanks to everyone at Andersons and Chicago Music Exchange for making these incredible guitars available!
@@thehotsixer1 I did. I was lucky and I called my CME sale guy as soon as this video was posted and was able to revere a Daphne Blue model from their first batch. Thy didn't get all 10 at once... they've been getting a few at a time. I suggest you call them to see what expect in. Good luck!
Can totally get onboard with the mild relic of a guitar like these Road Worn, lovely, I hate heavy relic but these are tasty. The Captains vibrato is so heavy! 👌
I have the red one, it needed setting up properly but I’m really pleased with mine. The colour and then roadworn feel is soooo cool, they look like a custom guitar! I’ve used mine for mainly recording and some live shows, and it sounds killer! Dont think I will be selling mine at all, amazing price too
@Michael Hayden what is the finish like on the blue Strat? Im considering pulling the trigger on one and wondered what the checking and paint work is like
These strats sound so good! I'd even say, they are the best sounding guitars I've heard in quite some time. Then Lee played the tele! That is the winner for me.
these guitars with cool looks, and pickups!!!, and spot-on price are what the entire range of sub-custom shop guitars should be. great job Andersons! (btw, sweet play by pete, and by captain on the purple meanie, heh heh.)
My road worn strat is literally the best guitar i have ever played.. So i can only recommend these guitars for anyone who's in the market for a Strat! ❤️
Love watching u guys play. Love the sounds of those strats! Bought 2 guitars from u guys in one month. Just ordered the candy apple red Strat. Might need to stop buying guitars for a few months after this one haha
Ordered my Purple Tele last week and can wait! Currently website says stock coming in November...just past my Birthday 🎁..... thanks for sneaking in that Prince lick DP! 👍🏾
I'm with Pete. Set bridge, no arm. Nothing wrong with a trem, but it makes me want to use it ALL THE TIME. Makes my playing worse...and that's REALLY BAD. It's all down to me and my weakness, but no trem for me! Great sounding guitars!
Bjørn Lodvar Larsen I’m the same way! Less stuff and I can focus on playing. Pedals and lots of options on amps have the same effect on me too? I’d be stomping boxes, adjusting amp tones and wiggling the Wang Bar all the time. When I’m supposed to be playing guitar. That’s just me though...
These look and sound amazing. Great that Andertons are doing another run of these. On the back of this video, I now have a Daphne Blue Strat and Purple Tele on order!
The Telecaster is the one I would go for. Also if Fender brought back the road worns for the Mexican shop I wouldn’t mind seeing them bring back the Highway one guitars in a limited run.
Love them and the price point is a great value. I can see them being very good sellers. I'd like to see them make some non-reliced ones as well in some metallic colors.
I've ordered the vintage white Strat last night. I was looking for something with a classic 60's sound and relic for ages. Some say that pau ferro is ruining the sound, but honestly, I really like the sound of that Strat. So if that's the way this sound was ruined, then I'm totally up for it! It's really hard to find a 60's relic reissue, with modern wiring for less than 2K, even if it's a second hand, so to me £999 for a brand new instrument that tick all the boxes is a bargain. Yes, I know, it's a MIM, but with US 59's pups, who cares! I can't wait! You guys have totally nailed it! So to me, this year, Christmas will start in November and out of sudden 2020 doesn't look so sh&% anymore 😊 This should be your new slogan - "Andertons - we've made 2020 better (unlike everyone else)" 😁
I came home from work on my birthday and my wife hid the Daphne blue strat in the closet, It looks and sounds unbelievable, I’ve had my player now 3 years, and a Clapton signature, I was unsatisfied with because of the noiseless pups, I wanted something vintage, something that looked and felt like Jimi would have played, wow, I can’t believe it. These are great. The 7.5 radius compared to player 9.5 I don’t really notice dramatically one way or the other.
If fender doesn’t do a run of them theirselves then I will let you guys at Anderson’s know that if you have some guitars made that are satin black Fender strat roadworn guitars that I will almost instantly buy one. Especially if it had an ebony or rosewood fretboard and matching painted headstock, but not a dealbreaker if it didn’t. I have wanted a black reliced strat finished with nitro for a long time but can’t pay the super high prices.
Jeff Beck and Hendrix both used the wiggle bar, but plenty of great players don't (Ry Cooder)! I prefer 5 springs in a Strat and flat to the body, so you get the best tuning stability.
A couple of things. Lee sounded really, really good playing the Tele - all of these guitars sound killer. Pickups obviously make a difference. I feel the exact same way about dings on a guitar, but I have yet to find an inexpensive (sub $1,000) guitar with a good relic job. Back in 2004 I spent $550 on an Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus, and at the time it was a lot of money for me. After about two months I put a bad ding on the surface. It STILL bothers me to this day. Since then I've learned toward functional guitars like the Gibson Les Paul Tribute and the PRS S2 Standard Satin 24. Back to the Strats - the line between Mexican and American is so blurry at the higher MIM points. The best MIM guitars seem as good as the American offerings, from my perspective. The middle of the road MIMs, well, I love them, but I feel like I can tell the difference. But I'm not as confident as i was a decade ago.
I’ve watched far too many Andertons videos over the years (with much joy), and you generally have quite a thin guitar tone (I’m sure YT comp etc has an impact but other RUclipsrs get a better sound). To my ears, the Pete strat tones are BY FAR the best tone you’ve ever printed to RUclips. Even the tele sounds, which I appreciate are harder to get across, make a decent fist of it. Whatever you did for this video, KEEP DOING IT (and I say that as someone who records and mixes music). Keep safe and well.
I’m with you Pete in regards to the trem. If your not a trem player but like a start decking the trem is the way to go. For me it seems that it bends easier and sounds a little nicer. Hey if having a strat with a hardtail/ decked bridge is good enough for Eric Clapton and Robert Cray it’s good enough reason for me
Tried a lot of Fenders, from last years Vintera (and previous Mex-ClassicSeries) and AmOri sounding the best 1=2 places (sq top, design, colors etc top). Yes, Vintera not USA, yes 8/10 build quality to USA, yes price is close to AmPerf. But, they are real Fenders, how they should be. AmPerf are on the next line of sound quality, #3, don't like cheap printed logo, but nice colors. AmPro i would give 4th place (sound is so-so, build quality, design the best), and last (worth) Elite and Ultra. Both are almost non-Fender sounding, but build quality is good + cases.
Curtis Chavez just received my order of the Steven Raichlen “Project Smoke” and MeatHead “The science of great barbecue & grilling” books today. Funny how this comes up as if on queue.
I tried a purple road worn Tele at my local guitar center about 3 or 4 months ago and while it was a cool guitar I ended up finding a used Highway One Telecaster for less money and I’m happy with it.
I think Jeff Becks is an 80's pro series. The guitar you refered to as looking like JB's looks similar but all the appointments are wrong.Becks has the 3 neck bolts and adjustable neck angle. Dual fulcrum trem. in line Kluson style tuners, their worlds apart.
Haha. I bought the purple Road Worn Telecaster a year and a half ago and did this exact pickup swap to get it a "little" closer to Pete's specs. Great guitar. Glad to know I was a little ahead of the game.
These should really have 9.5" fretboard radius... they would be the Custom Shop killers! Specially for the strats: 7.25" radius + floating trem = every string change needs a set-up
@@anonymousforensic not really... the thing is that with a 7.25" radius and vintage frets it's quite easy to get string choking when bending, so these guitars really need to be well set-up. Every change of strings, weather, humidity, etc. makes the neck move a bit and with a 7.25" this is very often enough to make the strings choke. I speak from my own experience with a Classic Series Strat with a 7.25" radius and vintage frets. I love the sound of that guitar, but it's frustrating how often I get strings chocking with it. A flatter radius like 9.5" that you find in modern Fenders and many custom shop guitars is much better in this regard
yeah I agree with that. Pete's custom purple tele has a 9.5. but I have a feeling these was not a andertons decision. Fender probably had the necks lying around and pushed them to cut costs.
@@RafaelFernandesdosSantos Yes... I think those are probably the same regular necks as their normal roadworn series. Gotta wait and hope for their next batch now...
Interesting thing about the Pick ups - over here the Vintera Road Worn have specially designed (with Formvar wire) '60's Pups. The regular Vintera Road Worn are selling for $50.00 less than the coordinated ones (with you). I haven't had a chance to play the regular US ones but have heard them and they do sound good. Both are extremely good value, personally I like the LPB and Shoreline Gold 60's versions but that is just me! P.
Would love to see a premium version of this - different finishes (shell pink, ocean turquoise for instance) with fat 50's pickups, maybe a roasted maple neck but even if standard maple it has to come with a ROSEWOOD fingerboard. I think that would be killer!
I'm glad you mentioned not using the tremolo arm. I completely stopped buying guitars with tremolo. If you had made the white one a hard tail I would be buying it now instead of writing this comment. Black pickup covers and knobs would have been a nice bonus.
There are quite a few very good players like Pete who swear by the flattened trem approach. Partly because they don’t want a floating trem but also because of the unique take on feel and tone it gives. Worth trying if you like strats without the float 🤷♂️

The Captain's playing has gotten so good and tasteful over the years, like a vintage wine, I'm blown away.
Couldn't agree more. Wish he was more confident in his runs because his note choice is tasty!
His views vibrato is fantastic too!

if you guys sadly luck out and want a 50's style strat or 60's the vintera modified versions are amazing quality for the price
They are amazing indeed, but 50/60 they are not (two point tremolo and 9,5 radius, S1 switching, thin neck, fender should have given them a different name I think) I almost bought the 60 white strat because of the finish on the neck though.
I have the 60s Vintera Modded. Super nice guitar. Really would recommend anyone to try one if you're after a nice strat with modern features

It's really hard to find a 60's relic reissue, with modern wiring for less than 2K, even if it's a second hand, so to me £999 for a brand new instrument that tick all the boxes is a bargain. Yes, I know, it's a MIM, but with US 59's pups, who cares! I can't wait! You guys have totally nailed it! So to me, this year, Christmas will start in November and out of sudden 2020 doesn't look so sh&% anymore 😊 This should be your new slogan - "Andertons - we've made 2020 better (unlike everyone else)" 😁
I came home from work on my birthday and my wife hid the Daphne blue strat in the closet, It looks and sounds unbelievable, I’ve had my player now 3 years, and a Clapton signature, I was unsatisfied with because of the noiseless pups, I wanted something vintage, something that looked and felt like Jimi would have played, wow, I can’t believe it. These are great. The 7.5 radius compared to player 9.5 I don’t really notice dramatically one way or the other.
If fender doesn’t do a run of them theirselves then I will let you guys at Anderson’s know that if you have some guitars made that are satin black Fender strat roadworn guitars that I will almost instantly buy one. Especially if it had an ebony or rosewood fretboard and matching painted headstock, but not a dealbreaker if it didn’t. I have wanted a black reliced strat finished with nitro for a long time but can’t pay the super high prices.
PLEASE come out with a lefty version of those in the future!! Because they are beautiful.
How would they compare with the Shijie STE Relic?
Pd: They also are under a grand, and not kind of under (999 is not "under" a grand).
That Daphne Blue Strat would make a great sibling for my Daphne Blue Nashville Telecaster!
They look amazing and great value! But for me I would miss having the truss rod in an accessible place on the neck. Love the purple tele!
thanks for the demo gents. It convinced me to order one of those yellow ones! Can't wait!
Thanks for watching & placing an order... Enjoy your new guitar when it comes! 🤘
Vintage white nice...candy apple red..different colors ...and daphne blue cool
I always love hearing Pete absolutely slay in such wildly disparate styles.
"I wish I could play it as well as you can't play it" - pretty much my constant sentiment regarding Pete's playing. ))
Jeff Beck and Hendrix both used the wiggle bar, but plenty of great players don't (Ry Cooder)! I prefer 5 springs in a Strat and flat to the body, so you get the best tuning stability.
A couple of things. Lee sounded really, really good playing the Tele - all of these guitars sound killer. Pickups obviously make a difference. I feel the exact same way about dings on a guitar, but I have yet to find an inexpensive (sub $1,000) guitar with a good relic job. Back in 2004 I spent $550 on an Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus, and at the time it was a lot of money for me. After about two months I put a bad ding on the surface. It STILL bothers me to this day. Since then I've learned toward functional guitars like the Gibson Les Paul Tribute and the PRS S2 Standard Satin 24. Back to the Strats - the line between Mexican and American is so blurry at the higher MIM points. The best MIM guitars seem as good as the American offerings, from my perspective. The middle of the road MIMs, well, I love them, but I feel like I can tell the difference. But I'm not as confident as i was a decade ago.
I just love those English expressions like, "the thick end of a year". Such a treat this channel is..
I’ve watched far too many Andertons videos over the years (with much joy), and you generally have quite a thin guitar tone (I’m sure YT comp etc has an impact but other RUclipsrs get a better sound). To my ears, the Pete strat tones are BY FAR the best tone you’ve ever printed to RUclips. Even the tele sounds, which I appreciate are harder to get across, make a decent fist of it. Whatever you did for this video, KEEP DOING IT (and I say that as someone who records and mixes music). Keep safe and well.
Nothing more fun to watch these guys, get to listen, review and finally play along to pete's outro jam with my bass
I'm in love with the Daphne blue strat !
I’m with you Pete in regards to the trem. If your not a trem player but like a start decking the trem is the way to go. For me it seems that it bends easier and sounds a little nicer. Hey if having a strat with a hardtail/ decked bridge is good enough for Eric Clapton and Robert Cray it’s good enough reason for me
Tried a lot of Fenders, from last years Vintera (and previous Mex-ClassicSeries) and AmOri sounding the best 1=2 places (sq top, design, colors etc top). Yes, Vintera not USA, yes 8/10 build quality to USA, yes price is close to AmPerf. But, they are real Fenders, how they should be. AmPerf are on the next line of sound quality, #3, don't like cheap printed logo, but nice colors. AmPro i would give 4th place (sound is so-so, build quality, design the best), and last (worth) Elite and Ultra. Both are almost non-Fender sounding, but build quality is good + cases.
23:38 I vote for Pete in the annual "Andertons - Solo of the Year" award!!
Pete and The Captain are simply the best!
That telecaster sounds ridiculous, so much clarity.
One of these, or roughly 30 tanks of propane? Just saying.
You must really abuse your propane tanks while playing them, to need so many replacements...
Brah, charcoal and wood rule the BBQ! Propane is only for heating and weed control! Lol
Curtis Chavez just received my order of the Steven Raichlen “Project Smoke” and MeatHead “The science of great barbecue & grilling” books today. Funny how this comes up as if on queue.
That boy ain't right
Love to see a shell pink version. If you guys ever do a shell pink run of these guitars send me a message haha 😉
Petes playing is always great, but by gum captain, new chords, volume swells, and tasteful solos...... way to go love it all !
Don't forget David Gilmour uses the trem!
I bought a Road Worn last year and I love it, mine is black tho and I just upgraded the pickups to Seymour Duncan hot rails.
Just got my purple Tele this afternoon. I think it’s broken. Mine doesn’t sound anything like Danish Pete’s Tele
nice but can you guys get some squier classic vibe 50's teles with a baja tele setup ?
I tried a purple road worn Tele at my local guitar center about 3 or 4 months ago and while it was a cool guitar I ended up finding a used Highway One Telecaster for less money and I’m happy with it.
Fender needs to come out with a HARD TAILED STRAT once again.
Agreed. The Robert Cray’s are pretty sweet though.
Ordered days ago and says order received and ready for processing, does that mean i secured one?
I ordered just now and got that message. There were 2 left, I ordered one and it now says 1 left. Fingers crossed!! That said, I think you’re good 👍🏾
I think Jeff Becks is an 80's pro series. The guitar you refered to as looking like JB's looks similar but all the appointments are wrong.Becks has the 3 neck bolts and adjustable neck angle. Dual fulcrum trem. in line Kluson style tuners, their worlds apart.
Haha. I bought the purple Road Worn Telecaster a year and a half ago and did this exact pickup swap to get it a "little" closer to Pete's specs. Great guitar. Glad to know I was a little ahead of the game.
I’m in Pete’s camp of no trem arm in my strat. Also probably because I’m also a tele guy.
Ordered! Cannot wait for my strat to arrive!
How is it, thinking of buying one
Next run order 5,000 of each. CME sold out already. Looks like you are too! (at least the daphne blue strat).
This video was funnier than I expected, nice relaxed, guitar mates get together, vibe about it. Perfect wat to chill, after guitar practice.
These should really have 9.5" fretboard radius... they would be the Custom Shop killers! Specially for the strats: 7.25" radius + floating trem = every string change needs a set-up
The Bedroom Rocker Only if you’re changing string gauge...
@@anonymousforensic not really... the thing is that with a 7.25" radius and vintage frets it's quite easy to get string choking when bending, so these guitars really need to be well set-up. Every change of strings, weather, humidity, etc. makes the neck move a bit and with a 7.25" this is very often enough to make the strings choke. I speak from my own experience with a Classic Series Strat with a 7.25" radius and vintage frets. I love the sound of that guitar, but it's frustrating how often I get strings chocking with it. A flatter radius like 9.5" that you find in modern Fenders and many custom shop guitars is much better in this regard
yeah I agree with that. Pete's custom purple tele has a 9.5. but I have a feeling these was not a andertons decision. Fender probably had the necks lying around and pushed them to cut costs.
@@RafaelFernandesdosSantos Yes... I think those are probably the same regular necks as their normal roadworn series. Gotta wait and hope for their next batch now...
Interesting thing about the Pick ups - over here the Vintera Road Worn have specially designed (with Formvar wire) '60's Pups.
The regular Vintera Road Worn are selling for $50.00 less than the coordinated ones (with you). I haven't had a chance to play the regular US ones but have heard them and they do sound good.
Both are extremely good value, personally I like the LPB and Shoreline Gold 60's versions but that is just me! P.
Have to go with my fellow dane here. No tremoloarm on a strat. I have even blocked the trem on my 2 strats
Would love to see a premium version of this - different finishes (shell pink, ocean turquoise for instance) with fat 50's pickups, maybe a roasted maple neck but even if standard maple it has to come with a ROSEWOOD fingerboard. I think that would be killer!
I'm glad you mentioned not using the tremolo arm. I completely stopped buying guitars with tremolo. If you had made the white one a hard tail I would be buying it now instead of writing this comment. Black pickup covers and knobs would have been a nice bonus.
There are quite a few very good players like Pete who swear by the flattened trem approach. Partly because they don’t want a floating trem but also because of the unique take on feel and tone it gives. Worth trying if you like strats without the float 🤷♂️
Omg..... When the Dane shows the tone.....how deliciously rich and warm..... I want one
