Published on 01/01/03 at 15:00I bought it in Budapest, in a shop named "Finkey". I paid 70000 Ft, it's about $280. Among the other guitars in this category, I found it the clearest in voice.
I like its shape, first of all, but of course it isn`t the most important thing. I use it with a Hughes&Kettner amp and I use a Boss MT-2 and an Electroharmonix Big Muff, and when I swith between pickups, it can be heard very nicely. The volume adjustment is quite smooth, as well. The guitar has a surprisingly clear and wide sound.
It's the pickups. The screws often loosen, and I have to adjust them almost every week, because they sink in the body, causing volume decreasing. It`s really embarrassing. On the neck, it's quite rough to play on, though I don't say it would be impossible to get used to. The volume adjuster gets loosen often, as well. It is a pity that the whole thing lacks stability.
Good sound among cheap guitars, that's what I think about the quality, it was worth it, but the physical attributes are weak. All the screws loosen too quick.
