The worst fret job I've seen Fender! The Meteora - Great Guitar or is it just a pizza?

Welcome to Crimson Guitars HQ https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonC... and Ben's new set up in the Luthier's studio. In this video Ben takes a bit of a road trip to pick up a dream guitar - a Fender Meteora from Guitarbitz in Bath. https://www.guitarbitz.com/

Will this guitar stand up to a closer scrutiny or is it just a fun name for a new Pizza?
