4.5 out of 5 (73 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "BETTER GET ONE BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE"
Sound: It sound likes typical Fender Stratocaster just like they made since 1954. I use it thru a Mesa Boogie Nomad 55 but it sounds good in any decent amp that I have tried. The pickups sound great not much 60 cycle hum for a strat Feature: The gold body (aztec gold)paint job they are not doing that color anymore the gold aluminium pick guard you don't see it that too much either. Gold hardware Quality: The finish is excellent and it seem to be put together rather nice Value: Its worth the money Manufacturer Support: I been a Fender customer for 45 years never had no problems The Wow Factor: Looks Sharp! Overall: I don't care want what anyone says the Golden 50th Anniversary that I have Is one fine axe and thats all i can say. Its a mexican made Fender and plays and looks great right out of the box, and many cases better than some American made. I know what I am talking about I am a professional musician I have over 40 years experience, I make a living at it. I have close to 18 guitars in my collection. Les Pauls American Strats, 60's Jazzmasters, Ricks, Gibson Es series. This is one really one nice guitar. I advice all before you buy is to do a little research go to Fender Web Site check everything and you see that parts in the assembly is same as the American strats and this is a Vintage style strat. Again all can say is check it out take the time and compare notes this is a nice Fender Stratocaster for the money
