I love it
Published on 09/26/12 at 11:55My Fender Stratocaster is Mexican Made. It has a five-position pickup, 1 volume and 2 tone dials. It has 21 frets, 3 pickups. It has a very smooth maple neck that is very easy to play with. It has a normal, non-locking bridge.
UTILIZATION
You can easily get to the very last fret (the 21st fret) and you can very easily get a very nice sound when using an amplifier. It is a very good guitar to play with distortion. It is fairly hard to get a pinch harmonic on it, but you can get it if you actually think about what you are doing. It is very ergonomic, it is a double cutaway body and it allows you to get to the very last fret. The drivers are very stable and are easy to work with.

SOUNDS
I use a Fender Mustang I Amplifier on the clean setting and I use a DigiTech Black-13 Distortion pedal. My favorite sound with it is the post-grunge distortion. With the amplifier, you can get many different sounds by experimenting with the sounds. I really like the sound of the guitar when it is in distortion. It provides a very clean sound when put on the middle pickup.
OVERALL OPINION
I like everything about it although i could have gone with a Floyd Rose bridge with a locking tremolo

Published on 04/26/04 at 15:00I got my strat second hand but it was it mint condition and had hardly been used since it was bought new about 10 years ago. I paid £400, which is about $715.
The tone of this guitar is great and despite it being single coil pick-ups, it is fully capable of if you want use distortion. Very veristile and can be used over a wide variety of playing styles, from rock to jazz.
There isn't much i dislike although it is difficult to get a metal sound out of this guitar, but then if you are buying this guitar you don't buy it to play metal.
The body feels very solid and the finish on it is perfect. The fret board is rosewood, which is a bit harsh to play on but is very tolerant and will last...…

Great guitar because of its versatility and of course one of the most popular guitars in the world because of the quality of sound it produces. Doesn't look half bad either.

Fender Stratocaster Plus
Published on 01/27/03 at 15:00I bought this guitar at Towes Music in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada for $1,000. The msp was $1,600 and it was on sale for $1,200, but I did some price checking and got them down to $1,000. I bought it because of Fender's reputation and the guitar was simply beautiful!!
the feel, the colour, the name, the sound.
it's a bit heavy and won't stay in tune when I "whammy" the floating tremolo bridge.
Blue burst body colour with white pick guard, Rosewood neck, 3 Gold Fender-Lace Sensor single coil pickups, 5 position switch, string locking keys.
Fender Rocks!!!

Fender Strat Plus
Published on 02/04/02 at 15:00Lace pickups and general hardware set it apart from standard strats. Compares well even against custom shop modfels. Very nice.
Tortoishell scratch plate is too gaudy. only 22 frets I need more ?
Considering that these are factory built units the construction is excellent - quality good.
For strat lovers this guitar is a must. These units are still reasonably priced therefore good value. Why pay extortionate prices for vintage guitars when these are cheaper and sound better.
