Really pleased with my purchase. It looks and sounds great. I really like the feel of the Matt finish on the neck, and the additional sounds from the S1 switch (I'd never used one before) the noisless pickups work a treat. The action of the guitar is fine, however I do get some fret buzz, though I'd guess most guitars will need some pre purchase adjustment. If like me, you have been looking for a slightly higher spec Mexican strat, then I would say go for it.

Mexican Fenders have come along way, they've always offered great value, but over the last few years they have really come on, I bought a Charvel Mexican made and was so impressed I had to check out their other stuff. I tried a Deluxe Nashville Telecaster. WOW!... so I thought why not have a look at its sibling the Deluxe Roadhouse Strat, I was a bit unsure as its got a battery! but fear not, this isn't a screaming active metal thing, its kind of an active EQ rather than a boost, it goes from shimmering highs all the way down to dark lows, very usable, even for my old fashioned preference, it's a great gigging guitar and is built like a tank.. I have to say that to get this quality from an American series you would need to go quite a way up the range.. this is almost a competitor for the elite... I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this guitar to anyone after a decent Strat, its got vintage noiseless pickups too.. IMO the best noiseless they have ever made, they're OEM on American Deluxe Strats (or were).. 2 point trem that works, 12" radius for blues bends across the universe... American Locking tuners .. again the best they make...Get one today!

Only drawback to this guitar, personally, is that it takes a while to screw in/take out tremolo bar, and only one tight setting which is what I prefer (ie,... compared to G&L, which has a variable tightness setting).
