History:
Purchase: I bought this pack form Musicians Friend for about 200 dollars.
What I Like About This Unit: Well this was my first REAL guitar (I started with a first act and a 10 watt amp) and for beginners its not that bad. I like the double tone dials, and the tone switch can be bumped up or down while playing. The paint job is pretty nice, but the paint chips pretty easily. Its lightweight which is pretyt nice, and it has a pretty good balance. The amp it comes wiht is nice, a 38W Frontman.
What I Do NOT Like About The Squier Strat Pack: OK, here we go. when I play i play hard, and every time I play hard, the coil comes out! Antother thing is the bolt dont come out easily, but once thye come out and you screw them back in, it strips it! So Im playing with the damn coil literally taped into the body.... Also theres bits of metal under the pickups... Its not very durable, so dont get it unless oyur a beginner. The amp is ok, but if your looking for heavy stuff, you better buy a petal. If your not precise on hitting frets, it makes a horrible buzzing sound too. The neck is veyr dry, my hands get blisters from sliding.
Strat Pack Quality: Ok, heres the thing I hate............The outside is well built, but inside is a mess! Theres chips of metal scrapes and shavings of picks! Its not very well built, and scratches and chips very easily.
Summary: I wouldnt buy this if I wasnt a beginner. Beware, its not veyr durable, its like a.....temporary guitar
