"LOOKS, FEEL, SOUND, COST, FENDER STRAT = FUN, FUN, FUN!"

Feature:
It has everything that I would want in a guitar. I don't use the wammy bar, but it is there if needed.

Quality:
Beautiful finnish and it seems to me to have the quality beyond what I payed when I purchased this guitar new. If you are looking to get the most bang for the buck, then this is it. Look no further.

Value:
Best price I have seen for a fender strat. If you are on a budget, but want a lot, this is the one for you.

Desirability:
I wanted it, I bought it, I am very happy I have it. Need I say any more?

Sound:
I love the 5 position pickup swith as I can vary the sound that I am in the mood for at the time I am playing the guitar

Support:
I really have never needed any support because the quality was already built into the product. If you own one, you already know this. If you are thinking of buying one, rest assured you will not need any support.

Overall:
looks, feel, sound, cost = fun, fun, fun!

"GREAT VALUE ...Expensive Look"

Feature:
the candy apple red satin finish. black pick guards and pick up stand out

Quality:
quality control was excellent for a Mex strat. I compared this to an American Strat, note all levels of production have some quality issues. You must inpect the piece yourself to get the quality you desire. Mine was a gift ordered from this website. Quality was excellent. Howver my local music store had the same guitar. the axe was on the floor taken abuse from customer who made unneccesary adjustments to the guitar. I never purchase equipment off the floor. order from this or a similiar wedsite or demand an unopened product from the local retailer.

Value:
at under $400 this is a quality instrument. I have several high end guitars. sound is subjective, to this day I am not convinced this I can purchase 1000-2000 more in sound

Desirability:
While this was a gift. I love the product. I have 5 Strats this has a unique look.

Sound:
It classic single coil pick up sound. Responds well to special effects. I have a Japanese Strat in maple with lower range. however for the price, this guitar is more than adequate. A good amp will taylor to sound you desire. I use a fender London Reverb. Ibanez tube distr. pedal for blues and R&b

Support:
Fender unlike many manufactorer has adequate support.Fender, Ibanez and Gubson all have maintained good support. deep pocket help

Overall:
Great looks solid build and sound. good basic strat set up. Delivered in a live performance... adequate when feed through a mixe. the satin finish gives this guitar a much more expensive look. unfortunely at this price the look will become common. My genre does not require me to used the tremolo often . nor would I toss this axe around a lot. This will hold up under normal use. YOU MUST GET A CASE.
