Feature:
This package has everything needed to get the beginner rockin'. I often recommend this package to my new students.

Quality:
It's by Fender. It's cheap. But, for the money it's high quality!

Value:
This package is very much worth the price.

Desirability:
Looks like a Strat. Plays like a Strat. Can you go wrong?

Sound:
The guitar sounds great, but could use a little hotter pickups. The amp is what it is. A decent "beginner's" amp. Overall, it sounds good.

Support:
My only complaint is the inability to register these packages online as Fender claims that you can.

Overall:
BUY IT!!! I owe six of these packages and use them as loaners for my students. I do play to purchase a couple more.

Feature:
The strap that it comes with broke after about a month. The picks are good quality but aren't all? Do not use the case. It is sure to destroy the guitar. The guitar method book that it comes with is really helpful. And the whammy bar that it comes with is not so good. It doesn't stay on well. The tuner stinks too.

Quality:
It can withstand a drop on the floor so it is pretty durable. It is very portable so it can be a "road" guitar. Everything stays in it rightful place. Nobody needs a backup for this guitar. My friend has had one for twelve years and it only lost two unimportant parts.

Value:
This product is worth what it sold for. It came with everything I needed for only $200.

Desirability:
I really like the pickguard design. It makes it look nice. It feels very sturdy in my arms. The colors are great and it is hard not to like it.

Sound:
The overall sound is pretty good. The amp is small and only has three controls, so you can't do too much mixing. There is an overdrive button and that makes it dound cool. The guitar makes a great sound but it comes out of tume easilly.

Ease of Use:
It is sooooooooo easy to use. Just take it out of the box and it is ready to play. It is a basic guitar, so it is bound to be easy. It is a beginner guitar, so childern who are 9+ can use it.

Support:
I have never talked to the company and I don't plan to. This guitar is a fine guitar and I plan on keeping it for a long time.

Overall:
As I said I plan to keep it for a long time and I don't plan on replaceing it.

Feature:
Complete setup, although I would definitely order some spare strings immediately. You will break at least one when you set it up for the first time.

Quality:
Spotless. I think everything has a very nice fit and finish and the only thing I noticed that is cheap is the bridge. The screws that hold the strings are soft aluminum and aren't very strong.

Value:
Best bang for the buck out there. There are other comparable kits too. If you try and hate the guitar, you aren't out that much money and will be able to recoup a fair amount of your investment quickly.

Desirability:
Sure, it isn't Zakk Wylde's signature model or a copy of Eddie Van Halen's cool guitar, but it is an attractive kit for the future rocker.

Sound:
Sound? It needs immediate assitance from a tuner and somebody who knows how to set a guitar up. Seems to hold its tune pretty well. I am a beginner, so the fact that it doesn't sound like somebody is beating a cat against a wall is pretty cool. Amp has a few settings to mess with as well.

Overall:
The best quote I heard is that it is a two year guitar. Strong enough to withstand the learning years. After that, I'm getting something really cool and expensive...

Feature:
The parts used on the guitar were very good. The input nut on the guitar came loose but was fixed very easily. The amp sounds great but remember it is a practice amp. Not a lot of features. I replaced it with a marshall 15 watt amp, but the fender 10 watt is still used to practice when I don't need a lot of feature.

Quality:
The quality is very good. Fender did a good job on this guitar. I would buy another one if I did'nt have one now. Except for the nut on the input which was easy to fix, I have no complaints.

Value:
This was the first inexpensive guitar I purchased that sounded great. If you are begining you can't go wrong with fender.

Desirability:
Since I own three fenders I guess I would say they are great looking and command respect where ever I go.

Sound:
I own 3 Fender strats. I purchased the bundle first, then the mexico made one, finally the american fat strat. The sound on the least expensive is almost as good as the most expensive. I use the inexpensive one to practice and the american and mexican ones to jam.

Support:
Did'nt need it.

Feature:
Like i said befour its avarge it knocks out of tune vary easily and the frets have a little space on the 12 and 2 where my e string gets cought under it i don't like the pickups at all they blow they pick up random ferqunces everywhere.

Quality:
its pritty duarable im pritty hard on insturments and i've had this one a couple of years and it seems to last, you may come in probles with the neck and some how i got the strings touching the frets i don't know if i did that or if it was just the wear on the guitar

Value:
it wasn't expenseive for the guitar i don't remeber how much i paided but i remeber having enough right after to go and get a pedal so if you just want to start guitar and you do have some intrest in it, it is the perfect beginer guitar.

Desirability:
it basic it looks cool when you first get it but it just gets so dull in a month, i hate the solid colours it adds no attraction to the guitar .

Sound:
Its alright for a beginner i've had it for awhile now and its just basic horable sound out of that little piece they call an amp. if your planning on using that little amp for a while i would suggest get a mult effects pedal or something.

Support:
where i got mine they were pritty nice i never really ran into huge problems where i had to bring it back.

Overall:
its got its up and downs and the only other thing i can say is to somepeople don't like a heavy guitar its not to heavy but it has a bit of waight to it, if it was stolen i would probly save up money for something else theres alot better than this guitar i'd probley go for a les epi les paul.

Feature:
Gig bag fell apart soon, it's uncomfortable to carry. You can't rate picks, really. The book may help you work on fingering and understanding musical patterns and whatever. I learn through tabulature, so I don't use it. Tuner broke fast, get a new one.

Quality:
Chipped easily. The black makes fingerprints show up well on it, not a good thing I think. EVERYTHING breaks, except the strings.

Value:
Meh. I don't think the amp is worth $100, because other Squiers usually run for $200.

Desirability:
Within a few months you'll get bored of it.

Sound:
It sounds good for the first while, amp and guitar. I didn't mind the overdrive the first while, but I hated pressing the button on the amp switching between clean and overdrive. Get a distortion pedal if you plan on playing both clean and distorted in one song. The guitar sounds almost like my friend's mexican Strat, although his is a bit better. Guitar sounds good for Nirvana, and some Offspring, some Sum 41 sounds decent on it. Not so much for Led Zeppelin.

Ease of Use:
It tells you how to play the instrument in the book. Setting up the guitar, if you have no idea how to hook a guitar to an amplifier, you might need some help.

Support:
Haven't needed it.

Overall:
Get a new amp soon after buying. I'm getting a new guitar soon, so this lasted me a year or so.

Feature:
The gig bag has no padding and rips easily. Get a Roadrunner the have padding and are good quality with compartments for cables, books , picks etc. The Strap is poor quality and uncomfortable. It cuts into your shoulder after a while. Get one with padding, they go for around 35-40 bucks. The tuner is not easy for a beginner to use and isn't accurate, definitely get a new one. The book is good I recommend going through the book first if you're a beginner. After you master the book get Alfred's basic Guitar complete, guitar grimoire and a good technique book. Picks? Picks are picks not much can be said about them.

Quality:
The guitar is of good quality and hasn't aged since I bought it a year ago. This guitar will hold up for the student in his room to the guitarist on the stage.

Value:
the pack cost me $200.00 on sale and is only a little bit shy of what the strat by itself costs.

Desirability:
It's a sexy guitar that is made to where playing it after a short while you become one with it.

Sound:
The sound on this guitar is quite nice. If you use a processor or pedals it's really cool. The sound of the amp is a different story. Buy a new amp. I use a Peavey rage 158 for practice and a Kustom PA Package with Marshall half stack for the stage.

Ease of Use:
When i say 9 I mean the start only. But it is easy to get the right amp and pedals. The tuner would be a 1, it's junk.

Support:
never needed them

Overall:
I'll never get tired of it and would definitely buy it again if I didn't already own it. My advice is the package is good to start for beginners. Seasoned guitarists should try to buy the guitar seperately. I got
