SPOTLIGHT REVIEW
VERIFIED BUYER
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Sound: The sound of this guitar reminds me greatly of the vintage strats that I have played many years ago and wished I had held onto. It is warm and biting.....a very rare combination in today's market. This guitar is more for those who have developed a "touch" in their style and playing over the years. It is probably not for "Thrashers" but is for many who play various kinds of music as you can get almost any sound you desire from this guitar; very wersitile! As a Pastor and a member of our Praise Team as well, this guitar is truly a blessing in every way imaginable. Extremely cool!!!!! Feature: Fender includes great case candy! Ease of Use: If you can't get a good sound from this guitar, I would have to ask if you know what you're doing? Seriously, it is that good! Quality: Super quality as you would expect from Fender. The price also demands high quality and on this guitar Fender does not disappoint. Value: Is anything really worth its price anymore? Having said that, for the price I paid for this guitar through Zzounds, I am completely satisfied! Manufacturer Support: I've played Fender guitars and amps for over 40 years. I still do! The Wow Factor: As a pastor in a church, I'm not sure that "sex appeal" is an issue that concerns me or the congregation as we are way more concerned with function, sound and stewardship in this matter. In the catagories stated Fender shines.....oh, by the way......did I mention it looks very good too? Overall: Till either I wear out or it does. At sixty four years old, it most assuredly will outlast me.

Fender USA DLX Strat V RW Customer Review submitted November 20, 2011

Sound: THIS FENDER AMERICAN "V" NECK STRAT WITH S-1 SWITCHING IS THE BEST GUITAR YOU CAN GET REGARDLESS OF PRICE. WITH S-1 SWITCHING YOU GET 5 VINTAGE STRAT SOUNDS AND 5 HUMBUCKING "FAT" PICKUP COMBINATIONS. TREMOLO WORKS AWESOME AND STAYES IN TUNE WITHOUT LOCKING NUT GARBAGE AND HASTLES. IT BLOWS AWAY ALL THE OTHER STRATS, LES PAULS, AND SG'S, AND PRS GUITARS OFF THE MAP, PERIOD! IT IS EXTREMELY VERSATILE FROM SURF MUSIC, COUNTRY, OLDIES, ROCK, METAL, JAZZ, WHAT EVER YOU WANT TO PLAY, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT PICK UP COMBINATION. THE NECK IS SLIM AND FAST FOR VIRTUOSO LEAD PLAYING. I DO NOT PLAY ANY OTHER GUITAR NOW. NOTHING SOUNDS OR PLAYS LIKE THIS GUITAR. ALL OTHER GUITARS ARE "FURNITURE" COMPARED TO THIS GUITAR. I'M BUYING ANOTHER ONE. YOU CAN PAY OVER $5000 FOR CUSTOM LES PAULS AND PRS GUITARS, BUT THIS STRAT SMOKES THEM ALL, HANDS DOWN, NO CONTEST!

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

3. You'll get your gear fast

Because we have two well-situated warehouses--one on each coast--nearly three- quarters of the US population is located within our two-day shipping zones. Plus, we keep both warehouses well stocked with all the most popular products, so you'll usually get your gear fast without having to pay more for expedited shipping.

In fact, zZounds offers free two-day delivery on many of our best-selling products!

4. We make returns super easy

You have 30 days to try your gear at home, in your practice space or studio. If you're not absolutely in love with the sound you're getting, just let us know. We'll promptly arrange for an exchange or a refund without the hassles or hidden charges you face with some of our competitors. If there's something wrong with the gear you bought from us, we'll email you an electronic return label so you can return it easily and free of charge.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
