    I've got a 1993 Mexican Fender Strat that I bought new when I was twelve. I haven't played it for a few years and it is sitting in its case in my parents' attic. Just asked them to dig it out and post it to me. Looking forward to it arriving!

    I have recently bought a 2007 Fender Stratocaster USA maple neck standard kit. This is the third strat I have owned over many years playing. Feels a bit lighter in weight than previous models. Paid £500 for it from a guy who couldnt play guitar. Guitar is as new.

    The Fender Stratocaster is an awesome guitar and i would recommend that if you are learning how to play, start on one of these!
    I have one myself. My favourite features of this guitar are: The pick-ups (3 of them), the cord doesn't come out the bottom (unlike the les paul), it isn't too heavy and it is easy to install a strap lock. Out of my 6 guitars the Stratocaster is my favourite.

    I love the Stratocaster. The sound, the feeling, the neck and fingerboard, everything. I don't know what else to say actually...

    Mine is an 2006 american deluxe model with maple fingerboard. I'd had a Squire and a Highway One before and was looking to upgrade. I tried out a load of strats at my local shops until I found this one. Interestingly I tried two identical guitars the day I bought this. The first one was awful, set up was no good for me and I felt I couldn't wait to put it down. I then tried the other. What a difference! The moment I touched it I just knew it was the one. It plays brilliantly, is very versatile a ...

    I own both a Classic 50;s Strat (Not the Player's version), and also a modified Squier Affinity Strat. I enjoy playing both of them, and would certainly buy another Strat in a heartbeat.

    Love the guitar. Easy fingering and can hold a note really well and for a decent time. Chord play is easier for me in comparison to my other guitars. Fairly expensive but that's to be expected in purchasing a Fender Strat.

    I like the neck and feel to the body but the frets are a bit too big for my liking. Overall, a great guitar.

    The Fender Strat is just beautiful in everyway. It is a song bird, a thing of pure delight. Pure poetry. Hope I can play one in heaven to God himself!

    I bought a Fender Strat last Saturday, and I took it back the next day. I was not impressed. For the cost of almost $400, I could've gotten an Epiphone Les Paul. I had one of those new Line 6 Spyder III amps and I found the sound I was looking for, but the Strat didn't deliver. A good starting guitar, but highly overrated for the more experienced players.

I had one of the new-ish Line 6 Spyder III amps, and the amp was not the problem. I found the sound I needed on the amp, but the Strat couldn't deliver. A decent guitar for the beginners out there, but unrecommended for the intermediate to advanced players. A highly overrated guitar.

    Fender Stratocaster - Love the feel of the whole guitar! The neck is very comfortable and fast action. The paint finish is just as good as the American series. Hey Its even sorta got that vintage look as well :D Good for old school rock, jazz, especially blues etc. Probably not so much for metal music. Overall a good solid guitar.

    The fender stratocaster is a great instrument and is certainly the guitar to get. These guitars will stay in in tune extremley well and produce a great sound in every regular situation. The jumbo silver nickel frets allow for easy playing and the bridge is sturdy enough to withstand thousands of hours of whamybar. This guitar will look and sound great even if it is neglected and you don't do every thing you should. All in all this guitar will stand the test and still look and sound great.

    Multi tone guitar. Easy action and feel. Beautifully crafted and it has a unique sound. I bought my Fender Stratocaster Electric Guitar about a year ago, mainly for playing blues and classic rock. I can't put it down, I'm absolutely in love with this guitar.

    The feel on these Fender Stratocaster are by far the best. tremendous playability. very easy to mess around with and easy to upgrade. Probably the greatest and best guitar ever made for it's quite simply a legend.

    It's hard to imagine a better feeling guitar than a Strat, or most any Fender for that matter. My first was a Mustang, and man I wish I had it now. I've had several Fender models, including the Mex Fat Strat and USA I have now, and also a few Gibsons through the years. The only Gibson model I ever played that was close to the Fender's in feel was a 335, and I'll take the Fender bell tones over the humbucker any day; although that one 335 did have a great sound. If I had to have only one guitar, ...

    The Fender Stratocaster is the best guitar in the world, it looks good has very good style and light trim arm. I have five fender stratocasters, two sunbirst 1954. reissue deluxe.and three red strats. two maple and one rose wood. You can play anything from rock to early classical. A really cool nice looking guitar. I would highly recommend this guitar to anyone of any age.
