This guitar sounds better than my mim fender stratocaster and plays almost as good. The NECK IS AMAZING. How they can build a guitar with this kind of quality and sell it for $150 dumbfounds me. The pickups are FIRE. I plugged it in and my amp was still set from playing my strat and I had as soon as I hit the top E string I new I had a keeper. Now for the bad news. I read a lot of reviews on how great this guitar setup right out of the box. Well the one I got was NOT. I had to adjust every saddle and I had to make a half a turn on the trust rod. And only the G string was intonated correctly. I had to really crank the E and A saddles to get the intonation correct. But the guitar is so good I still recommend it even if you don't know how to set up a guitar and have to pay $50 or so to have a professional to do it.The guitar would still be worth the money.. I have bought 6 budget guitars from Amazon and this one is the best all around guitar by far. Only my Donner mm100 comes close and it's 50 bucks more. So Yes I recommend this guitar to beginners as well as professionals and everyone in between..

I bought this on the hopes of getting one with good bones. So far I have to say it is Awesome as is. Some reviews I have seen on YouTube had problems with the volume and tone knobs spinning past the stop point, however I found this same issue with my example and tracked it down to the plastic inserts inside of the metal knobs. A couple drops of super glue with a shot of accelerator around the inside perimeter fixed this. There's no shielding in the control cavity and the pots are very tiny, but work just fine! The tuners will get you playing and might be an area for upgrade in the future. The nut was cut well and will remain for now. I purchased this as something to tinker with but enjoy it as is for now. The frets are fine as well, although they needed a slight polish. I immediately changed the strings with D'Addario 9/42's and it has decent sustain. I have great plans for this in the near future to make it a little Hot Rod! Hope this is helpful, so have Fun. After all, isn't that what the Hobby is all about?

What did I like? - Great neck , Nice action (out of the box) , sounds good , packaged nicely and it a really good feeling guitar overall. What I don't like is I ordered a Grey one , which I had to wait for (B.O and it did come in its allotted time) but it looks like a beige color instead. Kind of a strange color for a guitar, but it does play well. Great guitar for the money or even compared to way more expensive guitars. A added bonus was I got it on sale . So I guess I have a beige guitar now :) , Wanted to mention that they did offer to send me a grey one but this one has grown on me

For the price, this is a pretty good guitar, fret ends could use some work. I was honestly surprised that the bridge came set up and holds tune even when using the trem. Overall, great looking guitar and great tone.

The action on the tuning pegs are smooth and maintain the tone quickly. The sound is beautiful and much better using guitar pedals. It is a nice guitar for beginners and more advance players.
