I just bought the American Pro II Tele in Sienna Sunburst like the one he's playing. I played a Mexican Tele and that back to back... and between those pickups and the added tone with the push push...i justified spending $1600 plus tax...gulp. But amazingly... no buyers remorse! It comes with this crazy incredible hard shell case with this plush gray/silver interior. Incredible package! The stock setup had it at 4/64ths across the board, just amazing....absolutely zero fret buzz. First guitar ever that i haven't had to mess with to get rid of fret buzz. I was sort of looking forward to figuring out the micro adjust neck tilt feature but happy that it's perfect!

I just got one. I remember buying a Fender Standard Strat (Mexico) at GC, but they let my amature hands touch an Eric Clapton Strat from their Custom Shop as I waited for the staff to get me a fresh boxed model. Oh my I was in love! But it was like a beautiful woman who was out of my league- only in my dreams. Ecstacy and fear! I was afraid I was going to drop it or something! I was playing it (if you want to call it that) out of this huge Tweed amp. I was totally overwhelmed. (Does anyone have headphones, please?) When I picked THIS guitar up, the neck and sound reminded me of that experience. And again - a beautiful woman who was out of my league- but I did not care- I am just going to have to handle it! It happens to be the black maple model as well. The neck is like butter. I think it is an amazing guitar. The best Fender ever mass produced?... there are others more qualified to say... but if you want to give yourself a grown up present- this is an awesome strat IMHO. Do you guys truly believe this is the best one that Fender ever mass produced? Kindly let me know.. Peace and love, CM

I’m obsessed with strats.. I’ve always come back to strats, and squier is the only guitar I’ve played ever since I learned how to play guitar. Would love to have a massive upgrade from my current strat.. 😍 I play full time in the church, and the strats can be so versatile and it fits so many different genre. If I have to choose, rock and blues..

I play the keyboard/piano but have always wanted to get into the wonderful world of guitars. A Strat is the exact guitar model I dream to learn on and have, as most of my favorite guitar players are Strat players. Unfortunately it's a bit expensive for me. The kind if music I will play is: 1. Funk (Nile Rodgers style) 2. Funk Rock (Red Hot Chili Peppers style) 3. Pop/Rock (Anything light and fun that fits that clean dreamy Strat sound) Even if I don't win, thank you for this nice giveaway competition contest and the great review.

Hi Thomann team & thanks for this great giveaway! 🤯 My name is Matthieu and I am 24. I started about one year ago a music producer career. I am a guitar player since I am 10, raised with the Eagles, Led Zeppelin, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Pink Floyd.. Musicians I admire a lot because they inspired me! What I produce is somewhere between the nostalgia of the disco era, the energy of rap instrumentals and the onset of house and techno. And I'd like to use my guitar more but mine is falling into pieces and the bad electronics bring a lot of noise. So i'm looking forward to pursue a great career and continue crafting my sound to inspire people, and I would be very happy to do it with this beauty 💙

Why: For a few years I've wanted to buy myself a nice strat but I never could decide which one to choose. I just have this image in my head of finally learning blues on a strat. This blue colour sold me, along with the sounds... What: Slow dancing in a burning room by John Mayer. (Bonus track: Chameleon by Herbie Hancock)

I'm Benjamin Breen from Australia, and I've been learning to play guitar since I was 8 years old, I'm now 19, my whole life I've been playing cheap broken instruments and borrowing school and friends instruments to learn on, when I was 13 my dad took me to my first concert which was G3 with Steve Vai, Steve Lukather, and Satch, it was phenomenal and I even got to meet Steve Vai after the show. My father passed away when I was 15 and because of him I've been strongly persuing music. I'd love to have a guitar in his favourite colour and call it after him, Jason. It's a beautiful guitar and sounds great as well. I'd be playing a lot of different stuff on it, Definitely Red Hot Chillis, John Mayer, Led Zeppelin, Green Day, Megadeth, just a lot of different stuff.

Hi guys, my name is Ádám Baráth, i'm from Slovakia. I'm 13 years old, i learned how to play the guitar when i was 6 years old. I started a band with my friends. At our last concert were 200 people. It was amazing! I've always wanted an electric guitar, because i never played it. These guitars are amazing! It sounded really great, i hope i can win it! You guys are playing really good, i hope i can play that good too😪We're playing all kinds of music, mostly the iconic 60s, 70s, and 80s, and our own music is kinda pop punk, but it gives you like a rocky vibe. Goodbye 👋(good luck to everyone)

Why I would love to win a stratocaster: My name is Lars and I've been playing guitar all my life! Starting out as a classical trained musician. After 10 years of lessons I decided that after listening to Clapton, Toto, RHCP, Hendrix and the Dire Straits, I wanted to take on electric guitar. Being low on budget meant that I played on my line 6 with my yamaha pacifica. Which, don't get me wrong, is a great guitar fo starters and offers a lot. However, since I've started playing electric guitar, I've always wanted to have an actual fender stratocaster. With its versatility and beautiful sound there in no guitar like it! Everytime I walked into a guitar shop I played one of those beauties and as happy as I was playing them, as sad I was leaving the shop empty handed. I wouldn't have any other guitar than a stratocaster, as it fits my playing style perfectly! Furthermore, winning it would also make my brother the happiest person, as he would get my old electric guitar and could start on playing the electric guitar! What I would play on it: I would play everything from Eric Johnson, Hendrix, RHCP, Clapton, Dire straits to Eric Gales, and many more artists and styles, as all is possible with a stratocaster!

Here is why: I recently bought a used guitar (of course strat) and it's not in great condition. I have problems with it, one frat is kinda damaged, tone knobs are not functioning at all, but I don't mind. I love to play it, I love the sound, the feel is ok ... it's just great that I have a guitar. It was the best I could afford at the time. It would be just AMAZING if I could get a brand new, better sounding, working guitar, so I could evolve as a musician, get more knowledge and I wouldn't have to worry about equipment that I have. I just want to play some music, not worrying about my crappy 15th frat. What am I playing? Just love Arctic Monkeys, RHCP, The Black Keys, Pink Floyd, Clapton, Hendrix, funky groove etc. Working on my own projects as well.

After more than 2 years of abstinence, I went to the Music Station again and played 3 Fender American Professional II Strats, and again I noticed that the woods had little vibrancy, the maple necks were not very dense and responsive, there was little twang, little crunch , wiry-glassy, few overtones, sustain, attack, everything you associate with Fender guitars, everything is less than on my ESP 400 Series Strats and less than on my BLADE Texas models. This can be tested objectively and I can only say that I am extremely disappointed with this price-performance ratio. No, I can no longer objectively understand this adulation regarding Fender Strats. My first Stratocaster was a Fender American Standard Stratocaster and that was my worst guitar of all, a Fender Mexico Standard followed after that, but after I played the ESPs and the BLADEs everything was clear to me, and that proves itself again, every time, when I compare, the same result always comes out - what else can I say, it is true! The ESP-400-Series Strats and the BLADEs have objectively, noticeably and audibly better tonewood, the BLADEs even have a flattened neck-body-joint and covered fret slots and therefore much better playability!!! So, I'm done with Fender, I'm playing something clever, and at a much cheaper price. I don't want to talk anyone out of their love of Fender, I have nothing against you buying the (usually) worse guitars for a far too exorbitant price, you're welcome to do that. Then there will be more BLADEs for me, very simple! Thanks for listening!

I would like to get this guitar for my 9 year old son who has been playing just before his 5th birthday. He started playing a half size strat-like guitar. Now he outgrew this and is playing my first guitar. The Pot-meters are really squeaky and old. So this guitar would be a dream to replace the old one. Thanks for the nice Vid! Take care!

Hi gusto, thank you for the opportunity! I rally like these guitars, they are amazing! I've never had a Stratocaster guitar but i love their sound! I would play some groovy and funky stuff like Parlament or Any song wrote by George Clinton. Fender guitars, as everybody know, are like Pringles: once you pop, you can't stop. Thanks again!

Woah, this looks like the ultimate modern Stratocaster... Fender nailed it with this one! I trully want to win this guitar as I'm a HUGE strat fan, but doesn't own one that makes justice to this iconic model yet. All my favorite guitarists play(ed) on strats: Frusciante, Hendrix, SRV, Gilmour, Clapton, Jeff Beck, John Mayer... and I'm pretty sure it's thanks to this model that I started playing the guitar. Of course I would play all my favourite songs from them, but also all other classical blues and rock songs, from Howlin' Wolf to Zappa and many more! Plus, it would pair magnificiently with my vintage wah.
