i bought this guitar at musiciansfriend.com, and payed $150 or so for it. its decent for a starter guitar, but im going to be a little harsh because i like playing music of a heavier nature. i cant tune down and have the tuning be stable for a long period of time. i tried tuning down to Bb-F-Bb-Eb-G-C, and had to use a 56 for my lowest string. in about a month the string went, and it wasnt because of the string. so if you want to tune down, youre going to have to save up a little more for a nice Schecter or something like that.

Its really good if you want a normal string guage and want to play in standard tuning, nothing wrong with it then.

if you want to go any lower that a step below...…

if you want to go any lower that a step below Drop D, then this isnt the guitar for you

for $150 its really well constructed, its got a nice neck and its very easy to string compared to my dads Gibson Les Paul that i used to play.

Tuning low? if yes, dont get this guitar, get something a little bit more expensive. If you dont have much money, get a cheap Strat and get a replacement baritone neck.

I bought this guitar online for 155 bucks, it is the guitar i started out with, and overall it is an average guitar, you cant think of any real good reason not to buy it for that price, plus it has stunning style

Perfect for the begining guitarist, and takes a beating, better looking than most others in the price ranges, but the playability isnt too great, after a year or so you start noticing little things you wont like, pick-ups come loose, knobs fall off, (only because they are HIGH quality metal knobs) frets are too tall, and the strings often buzz and rattle, and it can trail out of tune after a few good hours of playing.

Overall good quality, little problems here and there, good...…

find it cheap and just starting go for it, but dont expect anything special, just a pretty looking starter

I needed a new beginners guitar because my other one kept on breaking. I bought this guitar at Wembley Guitar Centre for 179 pounds.

I like it's strat-type body and the pickups sound ok. The neck is really comfortable and overall it is really light.

If your not touching the guitar strings during distortion, it makes an annoying buzzing sound. The body's wood is not dense enough.

It is black (also available in grey) and has a strat type body. It has a 3 way switch and 2 humbuckers. There is a tone and volume knob and it has a bridge with a trmelo bar. The neck is maple with a rosewood fretboard, but im not sure about the body's wood.

It's a pretty guitar, but if the body was made...…

It's a pretty guitar, but if the body was made of a slighty better wood, it would be really good.

I bought this piece of shite from Gamlins in Birmigham for £200. I dont know why I bought it because it would have been a better use of money to wipe my fat, hairy ass with the cash.

There isn't really anything I like about the Guitar because it is shocking. It plays like a hippo with a bamboo pole stuck up its ass sideways. I hate the guitar so i am going to play my trobone.

When I first got it out of the box I realised what a terrible mistake I had made because it looked like a highland cow with a lampost stuck up its ass sideways. The guitar is constantly falling out of tune. Then when I tune it the Machine Heads fell off. The pickups are shit and sound like a tranny in a wind...…

The guitar is constantly falling out of tune. Then when I tune it the Machine Heads fell off. The pickups are shit and sound like a tranny in a wind tunnel with a pylon stuck up it's ass sideways. So as you can tell I am rather pissed off and I like things stuck up the ass sideways. I would carry on but I have ran out off room.

I think the guitar is stuck together using badger spunk. The tone knobs keep coming loose and the pickups have come out four times in as many months. The paint work is as thin as piss and the paint rubs off when you solo on it.

The Bottom line is that I am proud of my purchase and would definately reccomend this guitar to all my friends (in case you cant tell I am being sarcastic). I wouldn't give this crap 1 star but as i have to I have given it 1.
