Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

Sound
I can only use a few words to describe it. It sounds so good. It sounds like a telecaster but with the sharp sounds I was always looking for. This is the best guitar Fender ever made.
Ease of Use
The neck is so slick and easy to use the action is low and everything.
