Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster 各个年份的介绍
不用说，我是 Yngwie 的粉丝，从 20 世纪 90 年代开始，我的一位朋友递给我一盘 Yngwie 歌曲的拷贝磁带。
我很惊讶地发现有很多不同的 YJM Strats
这篇文章的目的是试图帮助那些遇到与我在 Yngwie 型号方面相同的困惑问题的人。

我见过的质量控制最低的，从偏离中心的琴头标志，到品丝上的部分硝基，我见过一些油漆刚刚开裂，甚至成片脱落。

一些早期型号（07-10’）的黄铜螺母太高且形状不佳
后来几年有齐平安装带锁按钮 11’+
这是 Yngwie 今天最常演奏的版本
Fender Custom Shop Yngwie Malmsteen Tribute “Play Loud” Strat
Made as exacting replicas to Yngwie’s favorite guitar aka “The Duck” only 100 made
Alder Body, maple neck and board
60’s profile neck
CBS Head stock
DiMarzio HS-3 neck/bridge, standard 70’s era middle pickup
Machine neck screws with anchors
3 way US switch
Fender 30th Anniversary & Custom Shop
For only $5,500+ you too can own one of these!
Duncan YJM pickups
Maple cap neck with anchors
No bullet, no truss rod access at head stock
No skunk stripe
Available in vintage white, candy apple red, sonic blue, and burgundy mist colors
Modeled after 68-69’ Strats
Otherwise the same as the latest US YJM with higher quality woods
Pickup Info:
Very early on Yngwie used DiMarzio FS1, HS-1’s & HS-2’s
DiMarzio HS-3/DP117 was used for a very long time
DiMarzio HS-4/DP217 came later and was also known as DiMarzio YJM pickups
Seymour Duncan Fury YJM’s are what he uses today
These pickups sound pretty similar to each other, but as Yngwie always says “More is more!” so, while having somewhat similar voicing, they increase in output with each new model. if you dial back the volume you can get quite a bit of traditional Strat sounds.
Here’s a comparison of the HS-3 and Duncan YJM
Loaded Pickguards:
If you pick one of the aftermarketpickguards up it’ll have a 5 way switch, and even the Official Duncan loaded pick guards do not come with the no load tone pot with bypass. If you buy one with DiMarzio’s they don’t have the DiMarzio logo’s, and most use springs instead of surgical tubing
Info About Scallop Depths:
US Version 1 evenly shaped shallow scallops
US Version 2 deeper scallops with a different shape, goes deep quickly then flattens out
US Version 3 evenly shaped deep scallops, like version 1 just deeper
US Version 4 deepest scallops similar to version 2, but deeper
MIJ 57/62/71/72 evenly shaped scallops like US V1, but have Jumbo Frets, so they seem deeper
MIJ 68 depth similar to US V1, but more of a v shape, especially the upper frets
MIJ “Standard” Export, terrible scallops, not deep, has ledges on most frets, vintage frets. Kinda defeats the purpose
请随意添加信息，或者如果我遗漏了什么，请纠正我，这样我就可以使它成为最有用的线程。我在网上找到了这些信息，自己根据自己的个人 Yngwie 吉他、官方 Fender Frontline 杂志、Fender 广告、来自日本的 Fender Twang 目录以及与其他 YJM Strat 爱好者（例如 Antonio Calvosa）的合作进行了整理。 fuzzfaced.net 和 pickroar.com 上 Gray 的“新与旧”和“识别 Yngwie Strat”主题中提供了大量有关 Yngwie Strat 的信息

CHINA
There are many Chinese made fakes floating around these days. Unfortunately some are trying to pass them off as real!
