Is this electric guitar any good?

My first guitar was a Fender Starcaster that I still have, albeit in a modded-as-hell condition. If you get a decent one, it stays in tune after a couple weeks of break-in, can be set up for a nice action, and sounds nice. They come with Fender pickups, not something ultra-cheap. Now, if you buy it you may be shown an amp that usually comes with it, the Starcaster 15/Squire SP10. They SUCK. Find yourself a cheap Fender Champ 600 or maybe a Line 6 Spider if you have the money and need the volume, but don't buy an SP10. The speaker on mine died 2 months after I bought it, and the distortion is fizzy and disgusting.
