"One of the most frustrating and confusing purchases to
consider for the novice guitar buyer is the Fender
Stratocaster (aka Strat). There are so many different
variants of the Stratocaster being produced by Fender (or
Fender licensed entities) that it's nearly impossible for
first time buyers to have any idea what the differences are
or why there are so many in the first place..."
