Hi Guys,

I just wanted to check if any of you ever came across China Made Fender Strats??

Not Squire, i have to emphasize, it's China Made Fender Strats.

Be sure not to get the 'fake' China Fenders.
This Modern Player Series are real Fenders made in China

Thanks for the replies.

if it does exist, can we get it in singapore?

secondly the guitar tone wise is it anywhere near the mexican strats?

it's already available in store. i tried the guitar + basses @ Swee Lee's Katong Branch.

personally, i don't feel the need to pit them against the mexican, japanese or american models, they are good in their own turf (QC- definitely thumbs-up). they definitely feel different from the rest of the Fenders. tone-wise, they are em... very Fender-y the definite plus point is the price- Fender at Squier prices, this will get many of us thinking hard before coming to the sound (forgive the pun) decision.
