Feature:
upgraded special texas pichups, these are 10 times better than standard pickups fenders come with, so much more tone and your able to recognise each pick up setting unlike some guitars. ply brown pic guard looks awsome and the neck is a REALLY nice shape, not too fat, not too thin. whammey bar is able to bend up and down unlike my old guitar which could only bend down due to bad designing. tone wheels make a large difference in the sound for maximum variation of tone. only bad thing is it only has 21 fretes but all fenders seem to from what ive seen. maybe its to make way for the exact position desired for the neck pickup
Quality:
the finish is awsome, mine artic white and it looks great next to the brown shell pickguard and that looks great surrounding the white pickups. the reason i rated this section 9 is because i prefere a rosewood neck to a maple neck, but it still looks lovely anyway its just my personal preference
Value:
bit expensive but id do it all again
Desirability:
say a guy on youtube playin it, played it myself i store, read that it was a hit, and i just had to have it
Sound:
great sound for blues, rock n roll and hard rock. great sounds for red hot chili peppers, eric clapton. alice cooper, aerosmith smashing pumpkins, dire straites, virtually any artist whos guitarist does not play a les paul or sg
Ease of Use:
great sounds easily produced and desired sound easily acheived
Support:
more like 11 out of 10. they dropped the price by £50, lowered the string ( for my personal preference), replaced the strings, gave me a free set of strings for my les paul, and chucked in a free whammey bar. as spinal tap's guitarist nigal would say, "these go to eleven".
Overall:
in my case i generally see a guitar i like and fantasise over it for a week and then get bored with the style(sound and look). then about after a year of playing it it grows on me. with this guitar though i love the neck shape, the finsh and the sound so i recon ill fall for it quickly. INCREDIBALLY SATISFIED
