Fender Standard Roland Ready Stratocaster Electric Guitar (Rosewood, with Gig Bag) Reviews

"This negative guy is stuck in the dark ages. If you wanted an"
Feature:
What makes this guiat great is the Roland GK2 pickup system. Not only can I get great classic strat sounds from the guitar, but when I use my VG-99 with this pickup, I am the master of the tone universe. I can get ANY GUITAR SOUND I WANT from this thing.

Quality:
If you didn't know it was made in Mexico by the headstock, you would guess American.

Value:
If you own a VG-99 this guitar is priceless.

Sound:
David Gilmour's guitar tech said that the quality of instruments comming out of Mexico was as good as America. I agree. This guitar is the guitar that Fender has chosen to use with the Roland VG-99. Roland is owned by Fender. If you are looking for a guitar that sounds best as a Fender strat, then this guitar is not for you. You will pay alot more for an American strat. BUT! If you are one of those tradition bashing pioneers who likes to be on the cutting edge of sound technology and you are a lucky owner of the revolutionary Roland VG-99 and then this is the PERFECT guitar for you.

Ease of Use:
There is definetly a learning curve to master the VG-99...but this guitar makes it that much easier.

Support:
Roland? Fender? Only the best........
