Some advice: when shopping with them, spend the $5 or whatever on shipping insurance. My purchase from them arrived with significant damage. The insurance refunded me the cost and let me keep the damaged (but still usable) item - in this case, an amp.
We ended up negotiating on a used Duo Sonic to make it right and got them to knock another $100 off when the pickguard arrived wavy. I believe the total was like $200, which I couldn't pass up 5 or so years ago when I bought it. Straightened the pickguard in the oven under low heat, just sold it early this year since I barely played it.
Edit: oh, I actually bought something more recent. Am Pro II Strat in Miami Blue. First one had bad touch up on the neck. Second one had a couple paint issues and a screw Fender didn't even bother to drive in. Didn't bother keeping either even though they were 30% off (which is still like $1200).
This is the color Adorama has been selling at a discount for several years and is offered on other often pricier Fender lines.
Community Reviews
This Lake Placid Blue Player II Stratocaster is drawing attention as a strong value for a Mexican Fender, with the rounded edge neck, smooth feel, and easy playability standing out. Several arrivals were brand new, well packed, and in perfect condition, and the color is described as an exclusive Adorama finish that looks good. The main caution is shipping risk, since some orders arrived damaged or looked like returns, so shipping insurance is worth considering. A solid Strat option if you want a fresh Player II without paying full retail.

I got 2 awesome Gretsch guitars that look brand new with tags but they're sold as refurbs.
If you want to actually use the tremolo you will need to upgrade the bridge/nut. If not then you're re better off never using the tremolo arm unless you like your guitar constantly going out of tune.
