Published on 04/03/06 at 15:00I play in a cover band which covers all music from country all the way to death metal.
Bought from Guitar Center roughly 3 years ago for $215 after tax.
To be honest, there isnt much to like about it, i liked the feel of the neck, and it used to stay in tune when I first bought it, dont know what happened, but i doesn't stay in tune very well anymore.
The pickups are very poor quality, sounded decent when i first bought the beast, but after about a year and a half, its jsut liek they wore out or something, terrible quality, now they are much to muddy, and I have since sold them for 5 bucks to my buddy and put some older Dimarzio's in that I had laying around. Now, it sounds great, jsut wish it stayed ni tune.
Quality, sub-par I would say, I didnt think it was very great, at first it was OK, but it declined over time pretty rapidly. Made of some sort of cheap wood, dents very easily and finish is easy to chip off. I use this as a backup to my Fender strat, I'm suprised it's even lasting as a backup. Would never use as a primary.
Bottom line, a cheapy for sure, I wish I would have went with a cheap Epiphone or Squier, maybe even Ibanez, but my point is, you can get better stuff even in this price range.
