Just got in what turns out to be a

2001 2002 Mexican HSS Red Wine Fender Stratocaster,

Paid $254 Including the shipping and had a gig bag.

I am told, theses are rare, WHY ?

Feels like a SQUIER BULLET Strat, It's real nice and light. My SQUIER HSS AFFINITY With Fat Head is heavier then this

People are funny. When they think they know something or saw it on pawn stars, they seem to become renouned experts. Midnight Wine (what your color is called) is a MIM-only color. As such, it screams "I'm a Mexican Strat". It's not rare. There are Squier and US strats with very similar colors (candy cola is close).....don't know the squier name. You got a decent deal for your guitar. Level the frets, clean the pots and you'll be happy with it.

I once bought a 90's MIM from a girl who had friends convince her that because the sn# started with MN, it was worth thousands and was ultra rare. I sent her enough info that she could double check easily to realize that it was simply a Mexican Ninetys strat. People want to feel like they have the next Barrett Jackson big dollar item.
