Stagg S300 "Stratocaster" HSS

Here are the highlights of S300 review from England:It obviously sounds better as my fender, how I tested this, I asked a few people to listen to the sound without looking and then asked them which sound was better... 100 % of the four people I asked liked the sound of the Stagg better as my custon shop designed fender. Overall Impression — 10 For this money you can't buy a better Stratocaster, if you buy a Fender, or a Squier, you might think you buy a better guitar because of the brand and price, but that's just the emperor's new clothes. If you own one, don't sell it for less you bought it, it is a great guitar!! I have been playing it now for over 5 years. I love it because it plays better as my Fender Stratocaster custom shop designed.Reliability & Durability — 10 Yes, yes and again yes, of course there are better guitars, I own a 1971 Aria which plays better and also I have a Gretch Corvette which plays better (however the sound of the corvette is not superb) I would certainly use it at a gig without backup. But I would take, just for sure an extra set of strings; however, if you change them twice a year there is no real worry in breaking then. You can certainly depend on it. Action, Fit & Finish — 10 The finish was good, although I always lower the action of the guitars I buy to the minimum possible The neck of this Stagg Stratocaster is very straight! I had to lower the pickups a little, but I always have to adjust the pickups after I buy a guitar. This Stratocaster was so well finished for a Stratocaster. Features — 10 I bought this Stagg Stratocaster copy as a sort of beginner guitar, but it plays better as my Fender Stratocaster which is custom shop designed. I have seen other Stagg Stratocasters which haven't the same good finish. Its like the Squier Bullet Strats, but then much better. I once owned a Squier Bullet Strat, but the paint came of in a few years, this Stagg is much better quality.Cash and local pick up preferred, or Buyer pays shipping, No returns.
