Ha if you actually believed that, then I did fool you well. However, I am probably going to sell my clarinet quite soon for $500-$800.

What do you suggest I can spend my money best on with that cash? (Probably about half goes to my parents for obvious reasons.)

I see a new guitar in your future. Maybe not the new Custom Shop, perhaps a new Fender Standard Stratocaster.

Good luck with the sell.

Get yourself a nice MIM Strat; its certainly time. Say, white with a maple neck?

Ha! Nice try Martian. But I think I have my eyes set on a Squire CV '60s or a Squire Deluxe Strat.

But it DOES say Fender...

MMMM good.

It's no feat to fool people when you just flat out lie.

I suggest you try telling the truth.

Hopefully as his taste in guitar matures, so will his sense of humor. Until then, nothing wrong with the squiers or mims.

'Also fooled by the title, good on you.

Have fun with the upcoming purchase.

Something stated here a number of times and 'am in agreement with; a moden MIM Standard Strat is very much in quality like the "originals" were when they were originally built.

Food for thought....
