See previous opinion.
mine is sunburst (very nice).
Finish: very good
just layer "plastic paint" mtalise the jack was removed. I prefer it without any way (it's more vintage).

UTILIZATION

Channel super comfortable (very practical for my small hands).
strato ACCS acute form so without much prob.
guitar a bit heavy. I m expecting a slightly lighter. if the average weight for a stratum.
beautiful rosewood fingerboard. a bit of "curling" on certain strings (usually from the 15th fret) but with a proper adjustment, more problems.
The big disadvantage for me, c is the Truss rod adjustment at the heel (near the microphone). c is not practical at all.

SOUNDS

J loves her. vacuum and with amp. I am very very very very far from being a pro, but for my level c is great.
I play mainly blues. to crystalline sounds, it is perfect. good sustain. custom micros enough but lacking a little punch.
it is less polivalente a Fender Start Standard. but hey, with good adjustment at the amp (and multi-effects pedal), you can play almost no matter what.

OVERALL OPINION

Perfection does not exist. not 10. but it s close.
c is a guitar for people looking for a particular product. in form of the handle, it will not please everyone, and microphones lacking the panache limited in its use (in a rock band, it can do a little light).
For my part, "small" hands (well not anything long fingers) and without much experience, it is more than perfect.
to compare Fender Mex and the United States, I would say that we see (and feel) a diffrence between the two types of manufacturing. the US is superior. however, the s Mex draws more that honorably. She did not blush. the rest RAPORT qualitprix bluffing. The superiority of the US does not justify in my opinion the difference in price.
