Hi, I am looking to buy a Deluxe Player Strat, however Guitar Center only has 1, and it is on the wall. It has the stickers on and everything, and it is in great condition. Should I take this one? I could not find anything wrong with it, but I am not the most experienced player.

Play it, see how it sounds. Does it feel good to you. Play it clean, dirty and unplugged to see if there are any sounds you do not like. Play some other Strats to see if one is actually better. If in the end you love that Deluxe Player Strat, get it. Please post pics of whatever you do decide on. Good luck on your quest.

Agreed. I don't see a problem with buying a wall guitar. If you really do like it, buy it.

There's probably a reason they only have one left.

Way-To-Go, and nice photos, too. The pickguard/gold combo stand out in a good way! Enjoy, and don't forget to practice at least 2 hours every day... :D
