"The best guitar in the world!"
Feature:
i wish it had a hardtail bridge

Quality:
i've had mine for almost exactly a year, some of the finish is wearing off of the neck along the edges by the frets

Desirability:
the stratocaster is the best looking guitar to me. I got mine with the maple neck and surf pearl finish and i love to just sit and look at it.

Sound:
it is the best sounding guitar i've ever played

Overall:
whenever i need a new guitar, i'm just going to buy another one of these, exactly the same, but new.
