"Great starter guitar"

Feature:
It came with head phones, a gig bag, pics, an amp, tuner, and strap. The amp is good, but the head phones don't work too well.

Quality:
I was so dissapointed with the quality. We had to send the guitar back because the paint was bubbled up on the front. I really expected more from a fender company.

Value:
I guess you get what you pay for.

Desirability:
My son loves the look of the strat. The red was beautiful, until the paint started to come off.

Sound:
I bought the Squier Strat for my son. I am pleased with the sound, and he loves the feel of the guitar. It is easy to handle and play.

Ease of Use:
It works great for my 9 year old. I think it will last him for years.

Overall:
If the paint will stay on the replacement, I believe it will last him for years. He loves to play the guitar and loves the look of it.
