A good guitar to get you started
I had been thinking about playing the guitar for many years but had never acted on it. While surfing Amazon on my new laptop I saw the deals on the guitar packages and I made my move. I picked a name that I knew and a style that I liked and it all came together in this great package. I consulted with friends of mine who do play and they all agreed that this was a great deal. I had a small issue with not receiving all of the items that were shown to be included with this package, but Amazon and Fender came through eventually and I got them all. It is a simple instrument with a good sound. The DVD is very easy to follow and I plan on purchasing the full length version offered on Amazon. I still consider myself a rank amateur at playing but I'm enjoying learning more every time I pick it up and tune into my DVD. I would strongly recommend that anyone wishing to start out on electric guitar take a strong look at this item.

Stratocaster Guitar
The highly versatile Stratocaster guitar offers legendary Fender tone combined with classic styling, and it's suited for all styles of music. It features a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with dot position inlays, three single-coil pickups with 5-way switching for the Strat's trademark tonal variety, sealed die-cast tuners for consistent tuning stability, chrome hardware and a three-ply white pickguard. The synchronous tremolo bridge can be used for subtle shimmery manipulation of chords or hard-core whammy-bar excursions. You'll also get a wide range of tones from the single volume and dual tone controls.
Squier SP-10 Amplifier
The Squier SP-10 amp controls include volume, treble, bass, and an overdrive on/off button that delivers tube-like tone. A headphone output allows silent practice. It features a 6-inch speaker, 10-watt drive, and a tough, textured vinyl exterior.
...And Everything Else
No need to shop for the accessories as they're all included. The package includes an extra set of strings, some guitar picks, a strap, and an instrument cable.

Almost Perfect
I give this 4/5 stars because the description is incorrect.It is a great guitar for a beginner, but it DOES NOT include an instructional DVD or a Gig Bag (as the description states).If those had been included, I would have gotten 5 stars.Great Tone, Great Features, Fender online guitar training rocks (so you really don't need the dvd). Good Buy for the price, just make sure you buy a gig bag too.

Great Starter Pack for a Beginner!
I got this pack at a local Best Buy for about $140 on clearance, and it is a great BEGINNER pack. Just for getting a feel of a guitar and how it works, this pack was the best purchase I could have made.
