Warbler Pro - Midnight Sky
The body-hugging curves, vibrato bridge, and three single-coil pick-ups of an S-styled guitar are unmistakable… but the Warbler model is always rare bird of its own!
This model sports a rosewood fingerboard, and a 3-ply b/w/b pickguard with nitrocellulose finish (standard for Feather, typically custom shop option) to let the wood breathe while the Midnight Sky color brings just a little metallic sparkle to the glossy black. And Feather Guitars never skimp on hardware, and the Schaller Locking Tuners and Bridge/Trem here are top-notch and a custom filed bone nut completes the string-touching points.
The variety of tone and character this guitar has rings true to its Warbler namesake - and this is no exception… with Seymour Duncan’s Hot Strat in the Neck and Middle (RWRP):
“Hot Strat high-output pickup will deliver more output and musical midrange than your beloved Stratocaster … ever had [… and] takes the classic high-end sparkle and adds a slightly lower-voiced, humbucker-like cut that will make your chords sound explosive and your solos jump out like never before. The sound is warmer and hotter than a traditional Strat pickup, rich with punchy harmonics. The raised flat Alnico 5 rod magnets are taller for a stronger and deeper magnetic field that increases output, and the overwound coil delivers additional power and warmth—great for getting heavy sounds from a Strat.” Seymour Duncan Website
Adding Seymour Duncan Hot Rails in the bridge position…
“…delivers high output, loads of midrange harmonics, and an aggressive crunch that makes this a great bridge pickup for rock and metal. Chords are full and powerful, and single notes jump out with amazing sizzle. A Hot Rails in the bridge position will literally transform your Strat into a completely different instrument.” Seymour Duncan Website
