Published on 07/17/01 at 15:00I acquired the guitar at H & H music in Houston for $170.
I like the simplicity and color of the guitar; some don't like the 'sparkly' look of the paint, but I personally think it's cool. I also like how the guitar has the same basic 'strat' shape, but with finer points on the cutaway.
After trying other guitars, the fretboard feels a little strange, kinda like I'm having to push the strings down a little too far. Also, I wish I had a second tone control.
It's a pretty heavy guitar. Feels like very solid construction, although the wood composing the neck feels a little fragile. Overall very good craftsmanship for the price.
Good beginner's guitar for the price, but I would recommend that you save and get something a little cooler... $350 BC Rich Warlock for example, or maybe an Epiphone Les Paul.
All in all if you must have something very cheap, I recommend this guitar.
