I went to the local music store to try out strats and found this model last. I sure am glad I took the time to try it out. I didn't know about the V6 preamp control but was pleased at all the tonal variations. Sounds great with or without it and the S-1 switch lets you move between the two easily. Great neck and body feel with nice frets and compound radius neck. Fender says these are strung with 09-42 but the strings sure feel lighter to me. The big headstock is cool and the gig bag is the deluxe padded one like the old days. For a MIM guitar you can't get any better. Locking tuners are great. My only complaint is that the black dot pearl inlays don't really show worth a darn and don't "pop" at all.

Everything about this guitar is exactly what I wanted. A flatter radius, the noiseless pickups (still sound like a single coil, but the 60 cycle hum is basically gone. The satin neck, the sunburst, the two point bridge, the locking tuners. Can't beat it.

Purchased the Deluxe Roadhouse Stratocaster a month before this review, WOW what a fine guitar! I love the feel of this thing and the color is the Vintage White which is like a yellow or "Banana Cream" color, very pretty guitar. I have the model that is equipped with the Texas Special pickups and man these things sound sweet! This is honestly the most versatile Strat the you will find factory. The sounds are what you expect from a maple neck Strat, clear and has the vintage "Strat Quacky and clucky" sound. Kick in the preamp via the S1 switch and boom!! The vibe is taken to another level of sonic Strat sweetness! This guitar is so much fun to play and the looks are killer, I love the larger headstock as it really sets this axe apart. IMO this is hands down the best Stratocaster you will find under $1,000. You get more tonal goodness, great looks and a guitar that is a pure tone machine. For you folks who are always looking and playing around to get that special sound look no further than the Fender Deluxe Roadhouse Stratocaster! Pure classic Strat tone and with a little extra muscle when you need it, try one out you cannot and will not go wrong!Read full review

This guitar has everything I need in a strat. It has that true strat quack and when I hit the s1 switch the built in preamp really gives it some extra oomph or a nice sparkle depending on where it's set.
