Mexican stratum.
I have the same MODEL dissqu to the depths, I find be enough information to give you an objective opinion on what you buy, choosing this guitar.
I disassemble the guitar body and pons and even the handle, so much so that she has no secrets for me.
You should know that the handle is made to US, although the Mexican is shrinking, and the finish, certainly good, but worse than the USD.
Likewise, the wood chosen for the handle, is of lesser quality. This is particularly visible on the sidelines, especially rosewood. But it's still good.
21 frets, rosewood fingerboard, 3 single coil pickups Ceramics (original) type Vintage Fender bridge.
3 knobs: 1 volume, 2 tone, handle C.
Everything is classic Stratocaster.
The handle is a handle pice a stocky, which is reassuring (but there are excellent sleeves 2 pices)
In short, no blame is a stratum, we like it or not.

UTILIZATION

The handle is good trs. Varnish, trs enjoyable.
Access in acute is good without being excellent, made by the heel diffcile junction with the body (classic Start)
Ergonomics? It is a stratum, with that nice body profile. And it's also comfortable trs.
This gives a good sound quickly trs.
The sound of the Stratocaster is recognizable among a thousand, and standards of Mexico possde broadly sound Strat if known.
As I Whereas the collection's outdoor aspect is important for a guitar, I criticize the varnish plastic svrement trs dense tuft guitar: I got the answers for 2 days ( 2/3mm thickness).
We often hear that this sort of varnish (not the same PROCD on Fender Chres more we see the diffrence) eats the sound of the guitar, I want to believe given the thickness of the thing ...

SOUNDS

As said, we are in sound typical stratocaster, broadly.
The position gives a sharp snapping, and it goes to the neck position (3 and 5), the better the heat. Intermdiaires positions are well-shuffled the sr: slamming but warm, soft but prcis, etc ...
For heavy distortion, do not push too much, it quickly becomes the ax. Normally, the Start is not in the humbucker, but the single coil. Satu small rock style and even quite pchu 70 will play this a little dirty ct when you push the gain, but too large saturation (Rammstein. ..) will not pass, period.
In gnral, I would say the pickups are correct for beginners. Nanmoins, they may possibly be bored to confirm a player that does not support their lack of precision, or lack of me (the pickups are okay without grain).

OVERALL OPINION

To conclude my opinion, I ask this question: What are you looking for an instrument? An instrument for beginners on a guitar that can correct handily give you an overview of the Start? Or an instrument that will be your companion Fidler of a life and you keep your cts?
While some would argue that the Stratocaster std mex is a good scraper that can upgrade (change microphones), and keep for a long time favorite partner.
They are not wrong, because in appearance, the collection's outdoor, it has everything a large. In addition, a beginners will find his account because the outline of the Start can be found for cheap.
But if like me you'll someone who attaches the essence even sensitive instrument, which is the content INTERESTED know me or the guitar, likes to know that that the instrument is of good quality of wood is what makes the guitar, etc ... then you risk a nasty surprise.

I dissqu this instrument to make a change in color, just to personalize it.
What was my surprise at the quality of violin chapter: little or no wood dry, sandy woods, wood still being shaped nail (you could fit a nail in it), body parts adhesives 8 (m me my table Ikea 40 euros is not AC), Electronic ok but nothing special (I will not criticize the more than that).
An instrument, unlike p neries I read, saw and made the diffrence with a piece of plastic on the Properties of the wood. I read that the gnial Fender, who for once said a nerie itself (or he simply wanted to promote his invention of the solid body guitar) have said that only because they have microphones fixs are not wood.
BTIS! The strings vibrate, they are linked to the handle, li itself to the body, the whole forming a sound picked up by microphones, if the microphones are broken, what comes out of the microphones is nase, if the wood are broken, then what goes into the microphones is also nase, and good microphones will be used that reproduce sound well nase.

Finally, I found that with an average of 550 euros, this guitar is a scam. The only thing she knows to do is pretend. By scratching a little, he yahlas many dception derrire ....
