Nice video. I think Fender rushes their setups, but they at least know what they're aiming for. That setup crossed the line from sloppy to looking like someone from the keyboard dept got a hold of it. Luckily, it sounds like no damage was done, though I would take a good look at the truss rod adjustment. My '61 AVII had a strong smell of lacquer and the neck felt like it was still wet for the first week or 2. All it took was some air and some UV from the sun to cure the finish to fix it. My neck pocket looks tight. My trem was set up floating like your first one, which is how I like it. My main complaint is that it's a left-handed guitar and they used right-handed pots and knobs. It looks like they only put the wrong parts on the vintage models, so I assume they treated lefties poorly in '61 and they're just being period correct.

I think you can loosen the neck screws and the strings, and hit the top of the neck with your hand, below the nut, and it should tighten up. Or talk to a good guitar tech. Some Four 0000 steel wool will help the back of the neck, AND you can use it on the frets and fingerboard (followed by a good board oil), if you tape off your neck pickup.

Good to know that it wasn’t just mine. Thanks for watching!

I bought one last October (Olympic White also). In the store it was obviously in need of a setup but I felt confident I could sort it myself (playing-for-40-years-worth of self confidence). I couldn't. Spent weeks fucking about with neck relief, action and string gauges to no avail. It buzzed, it had dead notes (the G string sounded like it had palm mute almost everywhere), it choked on bends - you name it...a total dog. Still I decided I owed it the best chance to earn its £2,000 price tag so I did some asking around about who the pros use for guitar setup in Glasgow and the same name kept coming up. So I made an appointment to let him have a look. His first reaction was "What the fuck?" but assured me it was saveable. The setup wasn't cheap but, like I said, I wanted to give it the best chance. Long story shortened a little...it now plays like butter with 10s. No chokes, no dead notes, nice action (within the boundaries of the 7.25" radius...1961, remember?). And it sounds beautiful. Also had it properly hard-tailed with a wood block. It needed a full fret dress and high spots removed in several places (oh, and the nut recut). Pickup heights set to Fender's '61 specs is also a revelation....rings like a bell now. I'm very glad I toughed it out and the more I play it the better it plays. Should we expect perfection out of the box? Is that a little unrealistic? I think the answer to both is "it depends". Fender definitely have some QC issues with this model (YT has many videos along the same lines) but they sold out in weeks and the back order is lengthy so there's "something" about them.

W/r/t the fit in the neck pocket - when you held the instrument up to the camera, the strings appeared slightly mis-aligned over the magnet poles. If you haven’t already, you might loosen the neck bolts a couple of turns and pull the neck toward the bass side, tightly into the pocket, then re-tighten. The gap should disappear, the strings will align properly with the pickups, and you’ll get more even sound string-to-string. Thanks for the video!

Back then when I only had 1 fender usa strat, I was really concerned about that gap that is always present on the neck pocket. But as time went by and I acquired several strats the gap did not bother me anymore. Until I started buying fender japan strats which did not have the neck pocket gap at all. I've seen several customnshop strats in the past 15 years and most of them have the neck pocket gap. I have seen a lot of fender japan strats and none of them have the neck pocket gap. Not really an issue for me, but seeing a more expensive usa strat being sent out with the strings wound like that, makes me wonder, fender laid off a lot of workers swveral months ago from what I know, did they replace them with inexperienced people to lower down the cost?
