6 out of 10
Feature:
pots are weak, the pickups are loud, but the tone isn't great. the 5 way switch is cheaper than the americans... the trem block is substandard import quality... nothing to brag about but its all there.
Quality:
these were made to compete with cheap imports, and bring in some of the money that once leaked to japan and korea.
Value:
buy it used, or buy an american. a real american, and not a highway 1.
Sound:
there is a difference between ceramic and alnico magnet pickups. it isn't just the differences in their magnetic qualities. it is the fact that alnico magnet pickups have 6 small magnets and ceramic magnet pickups have 1 magnet with 6 steel polepieces. if the presence, or absence of tone pickups in the chain effects the tone, what do you think having a different number of magnets will do? these pickups suck, unless you're a bad contemporary country musician.
Ease of Use:
these aren't very well crafted. that translates to an uncomfortable neck profile and so-so frets.
Overall:
i would advise you to go see the guitar and play it in person. quality varies and some are pretty good, while others are not.
