  • Superstrat Elektromos Gitárok
    Visszalépés a Muszty-Dobay Főoldalra SUPERSTRAT ELEKTROMOS GITÁROK Találkozhatunk még a Superstrato vagy a Sooperstrat elnevezésekkel, illetve ugyanezeket ír(hat)ják egybe vagy külön, esetleg kötőjellel is, ám a leggyakoribb mindenhol, minden nyelven a Superstrat megnevezés. De van, ahol nemes egyszerűséggel „modern Strato (alakú vagy formájú)” elektromos gitárnak nevezik. Nincs hivatalos és pontos meghatározása a Superstrat-nak, ez egy szubjektív elektromosgitár-design, amely hasonlít a Fender Stratocaster-re. Tény, hogy sokan sok helyen vitatkoznak azon, vajon egy-egy gitármárka bizonyos modellje Superstrat-e, vagy sem, ám ettől függetlenül a nagyobb internetes gitáráruházakban már külön kategóriaként kezelik a Superstrat elektromos gitárokat, és külön oldalt kapnak. Ezt a gitártípust a heavy metal zenének az 1980-as évek elején megnőtt népszerűsége hívta életre. A gitárosok elkezdtek keresni egy olyan elektromos gitárt, amelyik jobban megfelelt az új zenei stílusnak úgy a kinézetében, mint játszhatóságában. „Kövérebb” zenei hangot kerestek, illetve egy olyan elektromos gitárt, amely igazán alkalmas az ún. „high-gain” torzított erősítésre. Voltak ugyan gitárosok, akik már használták effélére a Fender Stratocaster-eket is, mint például Ritchie Blackmore vagy Dave Murray, ám az általuk eszközölt módosítások viszonylag csekélyek voltak annak érdekében, hogy a hangszerük minél inkább illeszkedjen a saját egyéni játékstílusukhoz. Természetesen ma Mr. Blackmore-nak és Mr. Murray-nek is van ún. „Signature” gitárja a Fender Stratocaster-ek között. Valószínűleg az első és egyben legismertebb Superstrat gitár Eddie Van Halen legendás Frankenstrat-ja, vagyis egy Frankenstein Stratocaster a ’70-es évek közepéből: A Frankenstrat-nak nem csupán története, hanem történelme, sőt, mára legendája van, fogalom lett, és még Eddie Van Halen honlapján is saját részt kapott.
