Fender Stratocaster Reviews
The Brothers Brick
“This will surely bring musicians, guitar enthusiasts and fans of the Fender Stratocaster into the LEGO hobby, which is always a good thing. The ability to build an alternate body color was a pleasant surprise and, as far as I know, something LEGO hasn’t done much before if... More at all. The inclusion of the amp and the interesting build techniques and neat pieces ratchets my enthusiasm for this setup considerably.”
