"It'a real Fender,like the ones they made way back then...."
Never gonna replace it,a Fender is forever,no matter how many other guitars you can afford,there's something positive in having and using the same guitar for your entire life,even if it's not the only one you have.
Sound
No way to fault this guitar.Excellent build quality,excellent factory settings and a sound palette to die for.Really,this guitar could easily be all the guitars you should need.
Features
Fair amount of accessories,strap,cable,booklet and superb,rugged molded case.The grain pattern of the ash used is stunning to say the list,lokks far more pricey than it is.

Value
Yes,definetely it is,actually the could raise the price without complaints,but don't let this spill out......
