Fender Player Series Strat PF 3TS 5-stars Reviews

Great

For the price it is a great guitar. I love it.

First el.guitar and i love it!

Firstly, it was well packed, I was very worried, BUT if you buy a Bundle with a nylon GigBag, the guitar will not be packed in it, although it was bought in order to secure transportation

It arrived in perfect condition, not a single scratch, I immediately took a guitar master for inspection and tuning - no problems, excellent quality for Mexican (despite some screws twisted at an angle). The sound is bright and rich, it feels good in your hands, it's a pleasure to play

Excellent finish, very beautiful tool

beautiful guitar!

Beautiful guitar, did need a set up out of the box, but that is to be expected. Huge value for money and for me, is as good, if not better than most modern AM strats.

Value for money

Home practice? Gig? Recording? Short on budget? This guitar will do all those..

The real strat

This is the real strat. It sounds like one, makes you think like one. It is always a great feeling to pick this up in your hands. So far the best guitar I have ever owned. It was very easy to adjust the action and the scale. Checked it couple of times later - still good. The only thing is that the frets were sharp on the bottom side of the neck. And there's not much you can sand there, some of them are also cut a bit too short. I'm reading this is a common problem with MIM. Oh yeah. And the D string rang. I had to use the razor trick on the back of the nut - fixes it.

My new Strat

I had a U.S. made Stratocaster sunburnst 1968, which I sold years ago for discontinued operations. The desire to play for my pleasure returned but I didn't want to spend too much. With this guitar I found just enough of my "Strat" with an absolutely convenient expense. I am more than satisfied with the purchase.

Great guitar - excellent price vs. value

I bought this guitar after having long evaluated whether to buy an American made (Fender AM Perf Strat RW HB) which costs twice as much or this one made in Mexico. Since I am an intermediate player and I only play at home, I decided to opt for this cheaper model. I am totally satisfied with the purchase. The guitar plays great, it is by all means 100% made by Fender (it happens I’ve heard that Fender uses the same piece of wood to make two different guitars, one in USA and the other in Mexico), the pickups play very nice and clean (and you can always upgrade them). I guess a big difference is given by the amp you are using, but I would certainly recommend to buy this guitar if you are on a budget and/or if you are an intermediate player, but you still want a quality instrument. What makes it great in my view is the playability. The frets, the neck, they are just perfect and the guitar comes perfectly setup. The body then is so ergonomic and it is so easy to keep it when you play it. If I’d compare it with the Gibson Les Paul Studio that I also have (which is by the way also a great, great guitar, a bit different from the Strat for many things) this Strat is much lighter to hold and is more balanced. Again, I am not a pro, but I guess many of you aren't. This guitar has been a excellent choice for me.

Great guitar for a beginner and intermediate player

Packaged perfectly and sent promptly this fantastic guitar is perfect for the son who has worked hard learning the classical guitar (and will continue to practice that) but wants the fun of playing the e-guitar and all the rock tracks.
