Fender Guitar Deals & Offers

Cracking guitar op, worth learning to play guitar for. :D

Very nice!

Great colour scheme. I remember seeing them for the first time in '79 in the window of Rockbottom music store in Croydon. This looks cool, but just a little pricey as a modding platform, which is what it looks like it should be.

Why you should always buy a green guitar

Time to buy some new walls, by the sounds of it (y)

Given the deals they’ve had on Sony XM3 headphones this week, it might be worth a trip today! (lol)

Thank you!

I might just return it before the 7 day period ends tomorrow. Or would it be likely that I would get another guitar with the same problems?

Maybe @NeoTrix can help

Ok now its stopped buzzing as an open string...just when I fret the first few frets!! And the 12th fret and harmonic sound ok (confused)

American standard doesn't exist anymore, it's now called American Pro.

Beautiful. Simply, simply lovely.

Probably the same set-up as per the Epiphone Les Paul that is made in China, under licence. You only notice a difference in sound if you have the two next to each other. For a relative newbie like me, it’s hard to justify the extra £1k for the American Gibson! Having said that, it is only the price of a mobile phone so what the hell!

MN means Maple neck. This is a real fender strat but it's made in Mexico. Nothing wrong with it at all but you can buy American ones on the used market for this kind of money.

:) I thought so it normally says American Standard on the expensive ones. I have a Meixan Strat love it!

I remember every little thing as if it only happened yesterday. I was barely 17 and I once killed a boy with a Fender guitar...

Clearly a successful post then as following you submitting it, they've sold out.

There was low stock availability when I ordered a few hours ago.

Out of stock

EKO NXT series acoustic guitars are great for the money. I bought one as my regular daily practice guitar so that I won't cry if I knock it about too much. My main acoustic is a Faith Venus acoustic. I'm left handed and to be fair whenever I see a nice guitar I usually buy it so er I'm not sure how many guitars I actually have, I should probably count them as two of them are worth a lot and I should insure them, so yeah I'll er go do that then. ED: I just checked and I have the EKO NXT 018 CW. Which is about £159 or so, so yes unfortunately twice the price of this guitar. A cracking guitar for the price.

Who cares where it was made? They're all mass produced by workers who are paid peanuts, there is no love and care into any of these guitars. Even these £5000 guitars are made in the same places by the same people who couldn't give a crap. It's not like one made in the US was hand crafted by some famous artist and it's a one off...

Ha, very good, but I have one of these guitars myself (a Mexican Strat, that is) and it is genuinely a lovely thing. No doubt the American is better but on a limited budget this is great. Mine cost slightly less than this about 10 years ago. As it happens, I bought it as Frusciante played one too - this video being the reason I bought it (mine is Tobacco Sunburst): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjY1x9RgbdE

Yes. In the same way that Lewis Hamilton drives a Mercedes.

​It's the same model, but not the same spec by a million miles!
