"A very clean sounding quality instrument."

Feature:
I also own the VG Strat and enjoy it's versatility of being able to change tuning and sound. But it is an excellent Strat just the same.

Quality:
I believe this to be as durable as any other US made Strat which is excellent.

Value:
I think it is a fair price for a quality instrument.

Desirability:
It is shaped like a woman.

Sound:
The range of tone and the sound of this instrument actually surprized me at first. I own two other USA made Strats and I did not think this Strat would provide the range and quality of sound it produces. The more I play it, the more I enjoy it. I did have to replace the strings that came with it right away and adjusted the intonation a little, but I am quite pleased with it. I even enjoy the lack of the sixty cycle hum from the pick ups.

Ease of Use:
Very easy to get great sounds even with a tiny amp.

Support:
I;ve had no problems to deal with them on, but I live near Scottsdale, AZ and know them to be an excellent company to their employees and in the community.

Overall:
I will probably cool my heels and enjoy this one for a year or two.
