I have this guitar pack and I have to say that the number of negative comments is amazing. I am not sure what people expect for $200.00. No! This is not a $1200.00 dollar American made strat, nor is the $500.00 Mexican made strat. It's a low cost made in China strat. Regardless of where it was made, I found the workmanship to be very acceptable. The guitar is beautiful and the rosewood fretboard is very nice. The whole guitar has a solid feel. My only real complaint is that the center pickup has an unusually low level output. But there is no way I would return this guitar just because of a single pickup. At worst case I'd just have Fender send a replacement. And Yes! As other reviews have noted, the amp hums a little (especially at higher volumes). But, this has more to with the single coil pickups used in the guitar. If you want humbucker pickups, you're going to pay more. Also the amp is just a small 10W practice amp. It works fine for lower volume practicing. I have fallen in love with mine and play it quietly in the evenings to relax from the world. I have a family and very little extra money. I am greatful that Fender has provided these low cost kits. It gives me the opportunity to own and relax with a Fender, something that would be questionable with a better (read more expensive) guitar. And, if the kids develop an interest, I won't cry too much if they add a few scratches to it. Folks need to keep things in perspective. This is a low cost entry level guitar. Understanding those limitations, I highly recommend this kit to anyone just starting out.
Customer Review: Fantastic Package
Do get this from Sams, much cheaper. This is a great deal for the price and the quality is fantastic. I would recommend reading the wikipedia article on the Starcaster by Fender to better understand the type of guitar you are looking at.

Where to Download Games, Music and Videos For Zune
Zune Access

My Online Downloads
Other than games, videos and music what else would you like? CD covers? DVD covers? Screensaver? Sure, MyOnlineDownloads delivers it all. The interface does not look as slick as the other guys, so we have to dock some points. A very respectable third place finish.
Save yourself the hassle of looking at site after site after site, and check out the ones listed here. You will not be disappointed. Check out my blog, listed below, for full reviews and helpful links.
Zune Video Pro
Songs are great, but what about videos? This is the spot you need to visit if you want video. Features: music, movies, music videos, cartoons and TV shows. Zune's video can be fully enjoyed, but files will be significantly larger to download, which means you will benefit from having a faster internet connection. Fourth place, because a variety is nice to have and if you don't have super quick internet, you might feel a bit of a slow down with your downloads.
