Great for beginners August 10, 2008

I just started playing guitar, so I went around looking for a good, less expensive one to buy. This one has sleek looks, plays well, and I have not had a problem yet. I would strongly recommend this guitar for anyone wanting to start playing. And though it doesn't say, it comes with the amp. You seriously can't go wrong with Fender.
Great Starter Set!!! July 11, 2008

There is no sense in not being honest, for how much you end up paying, you will feel very satisfied with this product. I've been abusing this gear for about 6 months and have only run into two problems. The amp to guitar cable just stopped working. Not too big of a deal, I ended up just buying a Monster brand cable 12ft for about $18 including shipping from Amazon and have been outstandingly pleased with the quality. The only other issue has been the cheap quality of the tremelo bar as it broke off inside of my bridge. This is a much harder fix, but this is a fairly minor issue once you start picking up more techinques on how to play (visit [...] it has like 300,000 free tabs and free video lessons on how to play... the DVD provided was okay but is eclipsed by this site).
Other than that, this is a nice little guitar. The fretboard feels great (the intonation on the upper frets seem a bit off but I hear this is pretty normal anyway) and the strings given hold up well for a good sound. The tuning heads hold nicely as well (I had a week were I played bout 5-6 hours a day pretty hard and I only lost bout a quarter note on each string). Not too many options with the amp, but playing around with it some and the pick-up selector can give amazing sounds all things considering. If you are worried that this little amp can't get loud, fear not. For at home use with OverDrive on, you can bug quite a few people in your home more than likely at level 2 volume (I play a bit less than 1 typically) and it goes up to level 10 volume!
Overall, this is well worth the money. Perhaps this gear is not the best suited for gigging, but that isn't what you should be buying a starter kit for anyway now is it? For anyone that wants to learn guitar with some cool sounds (acoustic can get old) this is probably the best $[...] (after shipping) or so dollars you can spend!
