Out of the Fender Custom Shope rages this limited edition vintage tie dye t-shirt. Where to start? First, the 100% cotton t-shirt is tie dyed to great effect in black and grey. Next the graphic itself is flippin' awesome, with the Fender Custom Shop logo and filigree done in white flocking. The upper back left shoulder is stamped with a seal of authenticity, and the thread count is super high, making this shirt feel soft, soft, soft. These shirts are of the highest quality for the rockstar in you.
This garment is hand dyed. All imperfections and irregularities are strictly intentional to make it as unique as the person who wears it.

Fender Womn Tee Strt Neck Fush Xl
Got this for my girlfriend who usually wears this size (XL), but this shirt is very tight on her. I has become a night shirt for our daughter. If your a busty woman, go up one size unless you like "the girls" packed in tight! Otherwise it is a really nice shirt and has a great graphic.

Squier by Fender SP10 SE Special Guitar with Amplifier, Brown Sunburst
Note: this review is for the whole "kit", not just the guitar or the amp. Also, it pertains to all 3 colors; I don't know why they have them as separate packages. (Maybe the sunburst one has better sustain? Ummm...right. Mine is black, if it matters.)
I noticed people are not reviewing this on Amazon and frankly, that's a shame! They (guitar/amp) are a fabulous instrument. So we're clear, this is a budget and/or noob package but I say that in no way to impugn its quality. It's significantly ahead of any 'Targ-mart' special you can get for only a bit less; then again I got mine on Labor Day special for 1/2 price--awesome!
Let's get "the missing star" stuff out of the way first:
- The tone knobs for neck/middle are more like switches. 0-2 is "dark" and 3-10 is bright. There's not much in between.
- The "tremolo" bar (classic misnomer) and bridge are low-budget so this is upgrade territory. For me, I'm not much into the whammy, so it's moot.
- Of the 5 pickup settings, only the bridge-alone one sounds truly unique. However, this is not a biggee to me as it seems fairly common. The pickups are not high-end (another upgrade potential) but if you're a beginner or you're playing for fun, in a church band or anything where $ is not on the table these p'uppies are surprisingly good sounding!
So, back to our 4-star combo features. Though it's a Chinese-made Squier it's still a Fender and they have to maintain standards. The fretboard/neck feels good and is solid and the tuning knobs get the job done; mine stays in tune reasonably well. The guitar as a whole looks like a Strat--not much difference from 5 feet away so if you like the Strat look, this one will be pleasing. The little 10-watt Squier amp has nothing to be ashamed of! It's very simple and it complements the axe quite well; in fact I like its sound better than my Line 6 Spider III 15W amp. I've even seen it at pawn shops for $50 so people must realize that it's pretty impressive for its category. Finally, the quartz tuner works fine but there are better ones out there to be sure.
To put everything, especially quality, in perspective, I like to ask, "if you drug Eric Clapton into trading his million-dollar-baby for this model and, after he sobers up you both play them, who sounds better?"
So, thumbs up for this combo. Professional musicians may not want the guitar unless they want to use it for a "project" and do some surgery to turn it into a great player. But for younger/newer and/or cash-strapped folk, you'd do well to own one. Mine's a keeper!

Fender Jim Root Stratocaster® Electric Guitar, Blackebony
I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY GRANDSON WHO RECENTLY STARTED PLAYING GUITAR. I HAVE PLAYED FOR OVER 60 YEARS AND PLAY JAZZ AND POP. I HAVE A STANDARD JAZZ RIG INCLUDING A EPIPHONE ARCHTOP, POLYTONE AMP AND KENT ARMSTRONG FLOATING PICKUP.
THIS GUITAR IS SIMPLY GREAT AND YOU GET THE WHOLE PACKAGE. IT PLAYS EASY, HAS A 5 POSITION PICKUP SELECTOR, IS VERY WELL MADE IN CONSTRUCTION AND APPEARANCE. IN THE NECK PICKUP POSITION, THE GUITAR HAS A SWEET AND ROUND JAZZ SOUND WHICH REALLY SURPRISED ME. THE OTHER SELECTOR SWITCHES RUN THE RANGE FROM ROCK TO ALL THE OTHER SOUNDS THE KIDS JUST LOVE. SO MY GRANDSON HAS THE OPTION OF PLAYING DIFFERENT STYLES AND SOUNDS. OF COURSE, I HOPE HE GRAVITATES TO JAZZ.
THE ROSEWOOD FRETBOARD IS VERY EASY TO PLAY AND THE GUITAR IS STRUNG WITH FENDER LIGHT GAUGE STRINGS WHICH ENHANCES PLAYABILITY ESPECIALLY FOR A YOUNGSTER STARTING OUT,AND,THERE IS NO DEGRADATION OF TONE. AGAIN, I WAS VERY SURPRISED.
THE AMP IS A VERY NICE PRACTICE AMP AND PRODUCES A LOVELY SOUND.
THIS PACKAGE EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS AND I AM SO HAPPY THAT I WAS ABLE TO GET THIS FOR MY GRANDSON.
I MIGHT JUST BUY ONE FOR GRANDPA!!
