sound features
After replacing the mid boost with the U.S.A. version mid boost, the tone is closer to the wild tone of Clapton during the Race Sensor period.
The Japan version's midboost only slightly changes the flavor, but the original version allows you to actively control the amount of distortion and tone! The Japan version's mid-boost is only slightly different in taste.
Even with the Japan version's mid boost, I had the impression that even when the mid boost was turned down, the sound did not become like the Race Sensor's bare bones, but the original U.S.A. version is even more pronounced. The original U.S.A. version is even more pronounced!
If you want a Strat-like sound, it is better to set the TBX to low cut side a little.

This is a race-sensitive Strat made by Fender Japan.
The color is pewter turned yellow and goldish.
Mid-boost circuit is built in, but it is different from U.S.A. Clapton model.
The mid-boost circuit of Fender Japan version is not very effective, so we have replaced it with the U.S.A. version by widening the cavity.
