Avid reader: This instrument is great and like any thing you buy today you have to adjust or modify.
It stays tune and handles well. I prefer brass strings but every body loves something different
For the price you can't go wrong.

S. A. Wilson: Came to me today with the strings in a way I like. In tune with each other, but about a half step off. This means somebody took the time to set it up, and tuned it, and while shipping it lost half a step. So the strings were 10's surpringly. I think D'Addario. And I had no reason to change them. it's usually the first thing I do. So instead I stretched them good, then turned them up. And it sounds amazing. Like my old RG550. The finish is perfect. It feels great. It works really well with Marshally things. I played it with a Xotic SL Drive cranked into a Sonicake IR Cab set to the 6 cab (4x12 V30's) into a Behringer 302USB and had the most amazing Anthrax guitar sound. All the screams. All the squeals. This is THE guitar to buy for your home recording setup to do Metal/Rock/80's/90's. And honestly, it's every bit as well made as my squire mustangs. Which is high praise because the squire mustangs are probably the best buy in a guitar right now. This was the second to last guitar and I'm done. It fills the metal gap so perfect it's criminal. Easy to play. I can not believe how low the action was out of the box, with no buzz. I guess it's just easier to get away with that kind of...

Stephen Pooler: Good design but dissatisfied with the chipping on the paint work.

Jamie Wheeler: I received this guitar when my kid was showing more interest in playing guitar. I wanted something that was lighter than my guitars and had a fretboard with all frets reasonably accessible without having to overstretch but would also serve for them as they grew. I do recommend this for kids possibly as young as 6 if they are kind of tall or long limbed. Otherwise, I think this is a great guitar for around 8-11.

To begin with, the material quality is excellent for the money:

- Knobs and switches work smoothly
- Tuning keys work well and hold
- Body and neck materials and finish are excellent
- Frets are reasonably well finished, not protrusive or sharp
- Fretboard is not a wood I am familiar with, but the feel is good and the tone it helps produce is very mid-range and versatile
- Pickup quality is excellent for the money

The guitar has a nice tone. With the amp settings set very neutrally on an amp that is normally a bit bright, this guitar was not too much either top or bottom and sits nicely in a mid-range with a minor lean toward top end (could have been the bias of the amp). This would allow for versatility of style for play from metal,...

Baltimix: Bought for my six year old. He’s probably too young in terms of patience to learn it properly just yet but size wise it’s spot on. it’s a great Guitar and I can play it at 46 so he’s got many years to pick it up.

George Comeaux: I bought this for fun and to replace a Squier Mini-Strat I gave away. I was very impressed with the quality of this little guitar! First, the body appears to be one solid piece of poplar. No visible seam. Very cool. The neck is one piece of maple with a maple fretboard, which is not something you see on cheap guitars. I have a more expensive full-size guitar which has a scarfed neck! The fretboard appears to have about a 12" radius, fairly flat and set up for shredding. The frets edges are smooth and the fit and finish are excellent; what you'd expect from a guitar costing about $100 more. The humbuckers(!) are not as great, but not terrible. You can get HUGE sounds from this thing. The nut is 41mm, like a full-size. However, if you have big hands, remember that the distance between frets is less and you have to cram fingers in there. I have slender hands. The electronics are pretty good; the tone pot actually works well, which is something I can't say about some guitars I've owned. All controls are smooth and responsive. It was intonated and set up right out of the box. Your experience may vary.

The ONLY thing I found with this guitar is the frets are rough. Like VERY...
