I bought one recently. Great guitar. I'm trying to get back into playing again after many many years lapse.
Has a great feel to it, and while a "budget" model, it's still a Fender...and probably the only Stratocaster that most "normal" people will ever own without going way into debt...
There are good forums online to look up about these guitars and they seem to have great reviews. There are also different "standards" depending on where it's made. Mine was picked up, with amp and gig bag, very cheap off a Facebook buy sell and trade page, and it's luckily one of the solid wood ones instead of laminated.
