Yes, I bought one of the Fender Mex FSR Classic series '50s Strats in Fiesta Red way back in early 2018 when they were issued. It's a good typical Classic series guitar. The bonus is that it has the Gold hardware, USA 'Custom '56 pickups & includes a nice Fender Tweed hardcase, all inc. in the price. If I remember rightly, it cost me about £740 new at the time.
Considering that the Mex ranges have now received a complete makeover & revamp & the new replacement Vintera range (which are also great guitars) replaces the old 'Classics' & are roughly in that similar price range now. So, maybe I bought at the right time.
So, yes it's a good quality guitar, & most Mex guitars are probably great value compared to the USA ranges, both in quality & certainly in value for money.
Regards, Tony.

Thanks Tony for the reply !!! I bought mine about the same time and for roughly the same price !! I just thought the strings was a bit light and have started to think about changing them for a heavier set !! Wondered if you had and thoughts yourself
Regards Pete
