I honestly think that they’re a bit overpriced usually - they’re good, but no better than a more recent MIJ Fender and not quite as good as a Mexican Classic Series, both of which have Fender on the headstock and can be bought for less. They gained their reputation largely when Fender USA weren’t making anything as good.
But if you paid less than that it’s a very nice guitar and a quirky piece of history for those of us old enough to remember them when they were new!

The first issue with the fender logo is a different thing, they are quite rare so I understand the price.
The problem is, as a new player I haven't had a chance to hold(Play). real American strat in my hands. Would interesting to compare it. I have Player Series Mexican Strat. I bought it just before I acquired JV. Since then I never touched it, but probably is just me being influenced by all that content praising JV guitars.
I have cheap MIJ Squier built in early '90. Despite electronics and hardware built quality is better than my Mexican Strat. No gaps at the neck pocket, nicely done frets.
Interesting, I never saw the box. Do you have some pictures of it?
Cheers
