"fender showmaster a master showing of style and sound"

Feature:
the guitar came with a tremolo bridge , i dont think it is useful on this guitar, it throws the guitar out of tune ,i recommend blocking the bridge, it adds stability . i removed the tremolo bar , with the bridge blocked the guitar stays in tune very well and seems to have better sustain

Quality:
the instrument is made beautifully, the finish is outstanding, and the hardware is nice and solid

Value:
it is definately worth the selling price it has great value for the money

Desirability:
it is without a doubt very alluring, i think they achieved a compelling appeal with the look and feel of this guitar

Sound:
the sound of this guitar is warm and rich , it has a great bluesy sound and feel .the sustain is excellent it is avery nice guitar for straight rythm and blues sound as well as classic rock sound

Support:
i have not dealt with the company

Overall:
i expect to be greatly satisfied with this guitar for the rest of my life,i do own other instruments, and probably will have other guitars that i use for my sound, but this guitar is, and will always be, a staple in my musical quest.
