Great MIM guitar with all the same features you would expect from the more expensive American versions..has the classic Strat sound and feel all the way..I would say the colour is more a shell pink with a bit of mocha so it is a muted pink that matches the roasted neck..the pictures on L&M show it as bright pink..but it is a stunning guitar..quite the looker..I love it!

I'm no professional. just an average home player for now. I had been looking for about a month for a strat that has a little zest in its look but is also fun to play. I have no regrets buying this start. the roasted maple neck is great to play on. smooth and easy. the humbucker adds a nice kick to this gem. its a great all around electric and it looks fantastic. would recommend

Absolutely love this guitar, it plays well right out the gate. Highly recommend this guitar to anyone who wants a great Fender Stratocaster…..I am a home player these days, but I would have loved to have had this guitar back when I played the bar band scene in the 90s..

Really nice playing Stratocaster! The roasted maple neck is one of the smoothest I’ve played, and it sounds just as a HSS strat should. I also like that the humbucker is two tone, giving it a deceiving SSS look.

Beautiful guitar. It checked all the boxes for me. Humbucker in the bridge and alnico single coils. The neck is awesome and this is a deal since you're getting a roasted neck in this price range made in North America.
Strats are so versatile and you can get your funk, blues, rock country and metal all on one axe!
The trem is nice and usable unless you want to go crazy.
My only wish is locking tuners, but hey it's a strat and fully customizable.
Construction is solid. I walked past this so many times until I noticed the humbucker in the bridge. It's almost single coil looking because the zebra pickup partly hides on the dark pickguard from a distance.
Anyway I grabbed it one day and was quite blown away how well it played. Mind made up.
Bought it the next day , even drove in the storm to get it, I wasn't waiting!
Definitely a keeper and light years above the mexi strats from the past.
Give one a try there are few guitars in this range that are this nice.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
