I know some of this has been covered, but throwing this out there anyway as someone who has actually (delivered today) purchased this deal.
1. Brand new guitar. Unopened Fender box inside Adorama box. Not B-stock.
2. This isn't old stock they are clearing out. MX21.. serial, made this year.
3. Someone mentioned this being 75th anniversary edition. It's not the 75th anniversary edition. That one has a painted headstock, and the neck plate says 75th on it. This one does however have the "Fender 75" logo on the back of the headstock signifying the 75th anniversary.
I have owned mostly squiers, epiphones, and I had a Fender Duo-Sonic. I was not expecting this guitar to be that much better. I was wrong.
The finish is absolutely perfect. Color is beautiful. No issues with neck pocket cracking. The gloss finish on this maple fretboard seems less "thick" than was on the duo-sonic I had (also an Adorama LPB special). Plays better. The shiny chrome frets are super smooth along the neck. I literally can't find anything wrong with it and it feel amazing to play.
I know some people have issues, and maybe I just got really lucky with how great this one is, but I'm super happy with the purchase. A little tuning out of the box and it was ready to go, I don't think there is any setup even needed. By far the easiest guitar I've played and the pickups sound amazing on clean.

I don't think we'll see these Adorama Lake Placid Blue Player 'casters as low as $480 ever again, because fender did across-the-board price increases sometime in the past few months. (I forget by how much... $70 increase?) Its still a great guitar for the money, though, I really like mine.
What's also nice about Adorama is you'll definitely get a new, unopened since-the-factory Fender box packed *within* the shipping box, complete with all the tags and such, and actually from Adorama. (Whereas Musician's Friend "deals" aren't new-in-box guitars, but are actually sent out by their parent company Guitar Center and are gear previously returned to a Guitar Center or are demo-gear / floor-models off a Guitar Center wall. Its happened to me 2x with Musicians Friend and I've heard the same from others, so I like my pristine, new-in-box Player Stratocaster from Adorama even more.)
