Fender Super Strat Review

History: I am 36 year old from Indiana. I have been playing in bands as a second job since age 13 as a drummer,guitarist and bassist. I currently keep busy as a guitarist in a local blues band, as a drummer in a local rock band and as drummer,guitarist and bassist in my church's praise band. I am a fan of great music regardless of the label affixed to it, but some of favoites and influences include SRV,Clapton,Joe Bonamassa,Robben Ford,Hendrix,Pre-Eliminator ZZ Top,Los Lonely Boys,Merle Haggard,Freddie King,Carter Beauford,Robin Trower and about 500 more people that I will not be able to include in the interest of space.

Purchase: I traded 2 Squier Strats for it.

Pros: The 3-color sunburst finish is gorgeous and is really complimented nicely by the gold hardware and tortoise-shell pickguard. The sound is classic sweet Strat all the way. Just what I was after. Very nice neck and great fit and finish.



Cons: The only complaint I have is that this thing weighs just under a ton.

Super Strat Quality: See above. A beautiful instrument, particularly in light of it's low retail price.

Fender Summary: I would buy another of these in a heartbeat, but I need a LP first.
