Published on 11/07/11 at 21:02The Fender Stratocaster guitar is almost perfect instrument with little additions throughout its history. It has involved in some ways but still holds true to the character and tone of the body that it originally established. It's a great instrument and probably the most classic guitar that is everything created. It has a useful tone and you get a very vintage sound that is almost captivating.

SOUNDS
The tone of these guitars are very unique themselves. They do not sound like Fender telecasters or Gibson Les Paul's in any way. It has his own feel and its own sound and overall complete different tone. Very classic tone that can do some great vintage style guitar tones as well as modern style tones. There's not much this guitar can do can't do so that's what makes it very appealing to most guitarists. You put it in any guitar amp setting or rig and it will shine through with out any effort.
OVERALL OPINION
You can find guitars pretty much anywhere you look for guitar or musical measurements. If you look on the classified sections of many forms you can see them and posted everyday. You can also find a new and most guitar retailers as well as online retailers. These are great instruments and I recommend them for anyone looking for probably the most versatile guitar that you could have her own. At new you can find them for right around $1000 or so which is a great deal for an American build instrument.
