I got this guitar because I was advised in several guitar shops that it was the best guitar, for an all round beginner, under £200. After looking around I got it for £190 in Allegro.

I'm very pleased with this guitar. It looks nice, sounds nice, and plays like a dream. Not one of the frets overlaps the fret board by a fraction of a millimetre. The fret board itself if made from a smooth hard-wood which makes string bending a lot easier than on it's main rival, the fender squire. Tuning is precise, and it all feels solid and well made.

The strings are quite close together which can make fast solos a little bit fiddly if your used to a wider neck, but you shouldn’t really notice. Also there is some fret buzz on the low E string when played without an amp.

I love the shape of the body; it seems to just fit perfectly. It's all very well made out of strong woods. The fret board is particularly well made as I mentioned earlier. It's all firmly screwed and glued together and it seems to be pretty strong too.

If you're looking for a great looking, great sounding first-time electric guitar that can handle a range of styles, buy it!
