Hello everyone!

Happy holidays.

Because of lack of experience with Fender strats I need some help determining if this is fake or not.
It supposed to be Fender Classic Player 60s stratocaster SB

It's exactly what it purports to be. A 2011 edition to be precise.

Agreed and looks to be in great condition.
How is the playability and sound?

I haven't seen it IRL yet. Just stumbled upon an ad. Trying to contact the owner at the moment.

Agreed, nothing on that guitar looks remotely non-Fender to me. As a general rule fakers don't fake Mexican guitars, they prefer to dress up a Chinese Squier as a Custom Shop instrument.

It traces back to what it's supposed to be.
All the best,
