Great Item. I ended up selling it because my hands were not big enough to get the movement I needed. I bought a short scale guitar with a thinner neck. Guitar was great but not a good fit for me. The deluxe is very well made and probably the best copy of a real Strat you will find for cheaper.
These new players strats are fantastic guitars for the price. The neck feels great and the thing can handle any genre of music - from grungy rock to smooth jazzy stuff. i have a tele (baja) I thought I'd never part with - I'm selling it...I like the strat more.
