One thing I like a lot is the controls are much easier to use.

The 5th knob of the originals is obsolete and Fender did a good decision to not include it on the modern player reissues.

Back when drooling over the late 60s Fender catalogues I fell in love with the Coronado line of Fenders,especially the Wildwood models with the cool wildly dyed grains.When the Starcasters came out in the mid 70s I fell in love with them because I always wanted Fender to make its own semi- hollowbody to compete with the ES-335,345 and 355 Gibsons.I was a diehard Fender freak long before I could even play guitar,I just loved to look of them-and of course the sound such as the beautiful tone of Buddy Holly's Strat. I just hope that the new releases stay in production long enough for me to be able to afford to pick up at least one of each-since they both have been on my "desperately wanted" list for so long.

I like the Coronado more overall, but much prefer the pickups they put in the Coronado


I HATE enforcers :?
