looks, feel, sound, cost = fun, fun, fun!
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
Features
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.
Manufacturer 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.
The Wow Factor
I wanted it, I bought it, I am very happy I have it. Need I say any more?
