Fender Standard Stratocaster Olympic White

I purchased this model as I could not afford the player. The frets were really rough and scratchy so I've had to spend a few hours dressing them. Some of the frets were also too high so sorted that too. The trem needed a good setup too. I know how to do all this luckily, but if I wanted to play straight out the box, it was awful. But as I have been setting up guitars for years I didn't mind so much, but I would not recommend this guitar to someone who does not know how to do all that

The Fender Standard Stratocaster is the new most affordable Fender on the market – but have they cut too many corners?
