First, I want to tell you that this is not a paid review, I bought this guitar as a practice guitar for myself, and I am totally pleased with the playability and performance
.
I received the guitar and would give it a Five star review except the pick plate was cracked and the finish was marred, however, this could have been done by the delivery company. the box was slightly damaged. that being said, I took the time to do the setup on the guitar, and if you aren't familiar with it, you can have it done at a music shop. the tuners are precise, the weight of the guitar is nice, the neck was completely straight and didn't need adjusting, I adjusted the bridge, and tuned the guitar, and after retuning twice, it stayed in tune, that is normal, the strings need to stretch, the tremolo bar works perfectly, all the pickups are great, no buzz or feed back, the saddles were all that had to be adjusted on the bridge, and the pick-ups were too low, I raised them. I played it with the factory supplied strings, the action is perfect, exactly where it should be. I have been playing for about 40 yrs and over the years have played many Stratocasters, and this plays as good as any $1000.00 Fender I have ever played, this is an amazing guitar for the price. all the components are good, pick-ups are good, control knobs and 5 position switch all perform outstanding, If you are looking for a good guitar to learn on, want a guitar to play in church, or want to give someone the gift of music, you can't go wrong with this guitar.
I changed the review from 4 stars to 5. I contacted the seller about the damage to the guitar, they were prompt, courteous, and responded far beyond what I expected. I love the playability of the guitar I received. I contacted the seller and they paid to have my guitar repaired due to Fed Ex damaging the guitar in transit. They bought a new pickguard for it and paid to have the chip repaired. I couldn't be more pleased. I did a complete setup on this guitar, checked the neck, it is perfectly made. I played one of Stevie Ray Vaughn's Stratocasters in Houston Texas in 2009, this guitar is comparable to the sound and playability. The factory supplied strings are decent strings, they hold tune very well. I am changing the strings because of personal preference only, a new guitar player would be more than satisfied with the strings. I cleaned and oiled the fretboard (standard operating procedure), checked all the frets with a fret rocker, all the frets were perfect, the nut is made of bone and is solid, the tuning machines are precise, the guitar is solid, the neck is curly tiger stripe maple, the fretboard is rosewood, and the body is hardwood. This is easily worth as much as one of the high end Squires sold by Fender. The amp is good, no hum, static, buzz, and for a 10w practice amp, this little amp puts out tremendous sound, the drive switch adds just the right amount of power and the guitar will produce any kind of music you want to play. The 5 position pickup switch controls all the pickups and the only thing I had to do was adjust the pickup height, also a normal practice with electric guitars.
Overall, this is an amazing guitar, easily worth much more than what it is listed for, and the company is easy to deal with, professional, courteous, and helpful. If I need another guitar, I will buy this again.

Its good quality.
Its good enough quality, up up..........withhhh, the proper equipment. Personally I find it false advertisement with the demo video. You really can't get the traditional rock and roll sound without the right amplifier, or at least a distortion pedal pluged in between your guitar and amplifier. Like the "BOSS DS-1 Distortion pedal". The amp I use to get good enough rock and roll sound is the "Boss Katana Mini - 7-Watt Combo Amp". It comes with the features you need to get that rock sound, and not just louder acoustics like the default amp. The default amp is missing the crunch, and brown sound that makes it sound like an actual electric guitar. The better Katana amp costs $100. Even though all you really need is the Distortion Pedal along side the default amp you get to sound rock and roll/metal. It costs around $57. But the extra cord you need'll be around $10. Plus I'd recommend better strings. Other than setup pointers, its a fairly well made guitar. A much better beginner instrument than most trashy starter voilins like the Mendini MV300 that cost more than this starter set up alone. Just the default setup is far higher quality than that garbage violin.
