« Fender Standard Fat Strat »

I bought this beautiful guitar under a month ago from a local music shop... I played a friend's American Strat, and so I decided to give Fender a chance. I usually play Epiphone because I've had one ever since my first guitar.

I love the slick neck on the Fat Strat, it's one of the easiest I've ever played... The color is also remarkable, I have the Sage Metallic Green, and it looks great. The best thing about this guitar, is the variations you can get with it. The modified coiled pickups to the humbucker gives you easy blues like B.B. King to hard distortion like VanHalen..

The only thing i truly dislike about this guitar, is the humbucker... But slap on a Dimarzio or Duncan, and this will be the guitar of your dreams.

This guitar is fantastically assembled... I took it to the shop for a standard tune up after I bought it, and they gave it back to me a few days later, with a $10.00 labor fee saying they only had to lower the action a little bit, everything else was perfect.

I recommend this guitar to anyone an everyone looking for a high quality guitar, I don't think I'll ever buy a different axe. And the price is remarkable, especially because it sounds just like my friend's American Strat!
