I got this as a graduation present. I had been learning on a Squier Standard, and this is a step up to a professional grade guitar. Besides the candy-apple finish being so beautiful, I actually play better on this guitar because the setup and action are better and lower than you can set on the Squier. The two humbuckers are great, and lets the strat really scream for you rockers out there. I run it through a 100 W Marshall and it sounds great both clean and distorted. Highly recommended because you just can't get better quality for this low of a price. Worth every penny.

I got this guitar for Christmas and I love it so far. It was a jump for me since I had the Squier Bullet Strat HSS before.The humbucking pickups gives you a mellow sound and it is wonderful to play from pop to jazz. It came with almost perfect setup.BTW, this Candy Apple Red/Rosewood is beautiful. It feels great.
