9 out of 10
Feature:
What can I say? It came with what I needed. Lose the tremolo, though.
Quality:
I've seen all these reviews talking about how American quality is so much better, but I've heard it's actually going down. Mexican craftsmen put their hearts into their work, and it shows. I've played American strats and pretty guitars with fancy pearl inlays and whatnot, but the sound and playability were nothing compared to this guitar.
Value:
Don't judge this guitar by price. It's worth more than 300 bucks in my opinion.
Desirability:
It's just a really gorgeous guitar. The rosewood fingerboard is very pretty, and the painted on fret dots are a nice touch, too. Mine is white with the black pickguard, which gives it a really sleek, sexy, vintage look.
Sound:
The sound is very rich and full, which is a sigh of relief from single coils. Surprisingly, the pickups are very HOT even though they're just the standard that they use in all mexican strats. Amp distortion is very good but, through my grunge petal, this baby screams!!!!
Ease of Use:
It's a really easy guitar to use. The neck is very fast, and it felt comfortable fresh out of the box.
Support:
I've had no need for support.
Overall:
As my musical prowess grows, I will probably come to expect more from guitars and not like this one as much, but there's always a chance that won't happen. I'm extremely satisfied with this guitar, and will probably take the time to modify it with new pickups or petals before I consider buying a whole new guitar.
