Not what it looks like (actually Groovetech tools)
This is basically the exact same kit as the GrooveTech guitar tools set (item #248750 on Thomann), minus most the allen keys plus the jack adapter for the screwdriver.
And when I say "exact same", the tools are actually branded GrooveTech, and so is the pouch.
So you're paying a premium to have Fender embroidered on the pouch (and the embroidery isn't even as neat as the photo would suggest) and getting less tools.
Moreover the jack adapter is 1/2 inch size, and only fit my Fender Telecaster (which makes sense).
All my other guitars (Epiphone, ESP, Greco, Ibanez and even Squier) are mounted with a 12mm jack, which is slightly smaller than the 1/2 inch one so the adapter doesn't fit very well.
The tools themselves seem to be of decent quality, but if you don't care about the branding I'd just recommend to buy the GrooveTech set with which you'll get more bang for your buck and have the exact same quality.

I have Fender but only 3 of 11 items are useful ....
Useful items: wire cutter, string winder, screwdriver.
Screwdriver isn't most suitable for Mustang bridge which I have, but apparently this toolkit isn't for Mustangs. Cause both hexahwedrons are too small for dealing with Mustang bridge height screws. Other instruments maybe great but I didn't need it yet.
Almost forgot to say that I have these knobs on my Fender Jazz Tele
These knobs have little screws on the sides to take them off. And this Fender crosshead screwdriver doesn't fit...
Quality is pretty good though but missing tools (or not enough universal usage tools) are part of quality too.

Not what I expected
I dont know. For the price...just did not feel right. The screw driver is good, but the rest not so much. Maybe me, but I was expecting more from fender.

I'm pretty disappointed...
I'm pretty disappointed about this product, it is expensive and the quality of this product is poor, some line of the ruler barely are visible, the capo it is ridiculous, the string cutter works, but it seems that it will not have a long life...
I never returned a product, but I think that I try to return it.
