UTILIZATION

A tire information I have 6 years of guitar and my tastes in guitar Contents are (Les Paul, Stratocaster) and brands (Fender, Duesenberg, Lag ...). I can give an opinion on this little guitar to Get You Started in music is nice!
For me, the handle is pleasant conditions for the polishing lightly a couple times to amliorer your performance (I learned this maneuver in a guitar magazine!) nevertheless have this price is correct.
CASC to treble is relatively simple (as strat requires) and the advantage of this model is the 22 box to quickly bend the 21!
For sound I reversed the two pickups and it sounds simple Rolling Stones since dead! Finally you will not reverse the typical sounds of the Fender version price!
The vibrato is simple and allows for some effects trmolo nevertheless have not a Floyd Rose and I can not do very long Van Halen =)

SOUNDS

Best with this guitar is to play with:
To clean: Fender
For crunch: Fender, Marshall
For the disto: Marshall, Hughes & Kettner
Nevertheless have friends is a Start! Even if this price and this configuration it is rather versatile Hoping it will not make the death or other mtal billeveses! Blues, rock, reggae and will have to put lots of chases autoriss by this guitar.
For my part I play on a Hughes & Kettner and Fender and a zoom G2 and the result is nice.
The Blues: 9 / 10 with modification.
Rock: 7 / 10
Reggae: 9 / 10
The Hard Rock 7 / 10.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years, I had other guitars but this is my first electric and one of the most effective!

Today I am nevertheless have Plutt Les Paul it's good to have for concerts or studio a small versatile guitar can troubleshoot! Or to Get You Started is a good solution because given the versatility that price go ahead and try!
One last precision if I change is that I am a little DIY and APRS as having purchased I am pay another, I squier modified without my mid-measures, but now I regret only one thing: Not having had Plutt!
One important thing: Always try your future guitar "annoy" the sellers because you come back often without buying. Sr very much of its choice.
