Chords for Melanie Faye Demos The Player Series Stratocaster® | Fender

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I wanted to play guitar because it sounded super cool and it looked cool and it looked
like it was going to be super fun to [Abm] learn.
_ _ [E] _ _
[C] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
I want more people who don't necessarily listen to [B] rock to also play guitar. _

_ _ [A] _ Hey, it's Melanie Faye and we're [Ab] checking out the Player Series Stratocaster.
No, no, I [E] can't see anything.
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ I've [Gb] experimented with a lot of guitars, but I think Fenders are really, _ _ [A] I think they're
[Db] geared _ towards [A] people _ _ like me who want [Cm] _
versatility [Dbm] and they want something [Bb] that's really, really comfortable.
Like the design of the [Gb] Stratocaster is like, it's got like the [C] _ contour [E] over here and it's
got like hips and it's just [B] really smooth and comfortable to play.
I [E] really like simple [E] instruments.
I don't like [Abm] when there's too [E] many _ bells and whistles and [Cm] stuff.
I like [Dbm] a very minimal design.
So [Bb] that's what made me want to play [Bb] it.
_ _ _ [Gbm] _ _
_ _ [Ab] It sounds like [E] _
angelic.
It sounds like heaven shining through.
I just [Gb] love that [C] R [Dbm]&B gospel sort of guitar playing, you know. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I [G] guess usually [Dbm] the first thing I notice about a guitar [Bm] is the looks.
[E] _ [A] I've actually never seen [Eb] this color [Abm] before, so [E] that was really interesting to [Bm] me.
It's like something different.
_ [Dbm] _ _ _ [D] Playing [Ab] wise, _ [Dbm] the pickups are like [E] really quiet [Bm] _ [A] and it seems like [Eb] they're reverse [Ab] line,
reverse [Dbm] polarity.
And they're [Bm] really _ _ [A] bright.
They really shine through.
[D] _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ [A] I noticed like the _ _ [Ab] neck is [Dbm] actually satin.
It's [B] not glossed over.
And [A] I noticed it [Eb] had Paul Farrow.
[Dbm] This is like very, very [Bm]
smooth wood [A] finish.
I like when [Eb] it's just super effortless [Ab] to play.
Feels like I'm just [Db] playing [Bm] air.
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [D] _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
Advice?
[A] _ I think you [Ebm] should just be [Ab] prepared [Dbm] that it's going to be a lot of, [B] _ _
there's going to [A] be
a lot of ups and downs.
[Eb] Because me [Ab] personally, I've put [Dbm] like _ honestly [Bm] literal blood, literal [A] sweat, literal tears
into [Eb] playing guitar.
But I [Ab] think in the end it's all worth it.
You'll hit plateaus and you'll hit roadblocks and [Db] stuff.
But [Dbm] I think that's just all [Ab] part of the process, honestly.
_ _ [Db] _ _ And that's [A] just really [Eb] a part of life.
