“Best strat kit on the market period!! This is my second kit within a few months and i must say im very impressed with Guitarkitworld. They have the best guitar kits hands down! The flamed top is pretty nice with good figuring. The ash body is nice as well with a black binding around the top. The skunk stripe neck is amazing with great fretwork with only minimal work needed. I am gonna buy another kit from these guys. If you were looking into a great strat kit look no further... this is the one.” ~ Eric F.
