Where to start?! I received mine as gift, but now that I have one in white, I plan on getting one in black. The one I have is studio grade; playability, tone, craftsmanship just blew me away the 1st time I played it. Hard to believe this was less than 500 gitas. You can't custom build one for this price-point! The tremolo and active pups make this baby a whole 'nuther beast. About the only thing I can think of to improve it is adding EMG's but the stock pickups are very good, so it sure ain't a necessary thing. I have a couple of Fender Strats, one USA and one MIM, and I have them set up as hardtails, and this allows me to have a strat with serious tremolo action w/o tuning frustrations. I've been playing since the late 1970's, started playing live gigs in 1981, and I can honestly say this is an all-time fave axe...it has a unique vibe and is just flat-out fun to play. Take it from an OG, these are worth every penny. Home run from Squier and zZounds, just buy one and be HAPPY!
