Knowing what brand it is would help a lot. There are some decent strat copies and some really bad strat copies.

There used to be one Fender Stratocaster now there's a ton of different models of the Fender Stratocaster. Even one with a humbucker. :roll:

I had a MIJ Fernandes strat copy years ago (1993) - great guitar for the money.

Also got to play a Tom Anderson strat style - very nice, but overpriced in humble opinion...
