This is the third Stratocaster I've purchased from zZounds. I just got this one today and right out of the box, it plays great! I'm going to set up this one in E flat and swap the bridge pickup out for a Dimarzio Super Distortion. I've owned and played many guitars over the years and I'm convinced that for the money, you can't do better than a MIM Strat. The finish on this guitar is gorgeous and the maple fingerboard is awesome. zZounds offers amazing customer support too. I called last week and Marcelus in the Chicago office stayed on the phone with me for over a half hour to answer my questions. This guitar arrived at my door in less than two full days after ordering it. This guitar sounds like a Strat should, chimey and crisp and the action is fantastic. The craftsmanship is beautiful as well. I find the Strats to deliver what I need in tone and playability, and again, I don't think you can do much better in this price range. 5 stars!
