Pour ceux que ça intérresse, j'ai trouvé ça sur le net;
=====================================

The Fender® Stratocaster® guitar is quite rightly the biggest-selling electric in the world. One of the most frequently asked questions is “What's the difference between a Mexican and a US Stratocaster®?”

Très intéressant.

La nouvelle strat MIM de 2006 a été revampée ... Fret Medium-Jumbo et TremBlock plus massif entre autres.

J'ai vue une nouvelle telecaster 2006 upgradé et j'ai été surpris, j'ai hate d'essayer la nouvelle Strat MIM.

Ça prouve encore mes dires sur plusieurs discussions que j'ai déjà entretenues avec ben du monde; Les Fender Mexicaines sont pas si "cheap" qu'on le pense...

Seb

Les fender mexicaines sont un bon investissement si on pense au rapport qualité prix...on oublie cependant souvent les guitares japonaises qui sont incroyables...
