Feature:
1 Volume, 1 Tone and a 3-way blade switch are a pretty simple setup.
The tone knob works wonders when you plug into an amp that has WAY to much factory Gain. The blade switch tends to add ALOT of Mud to the sound when switched to the neck pickup, sounds somewhat like your listening to your amp through a thick wall. Overall? a real light-weight Guitar thats user friendly!
Quality:
Very Durable Guitar indeed. The paint job is pretty simple and can take a beating. padded gig bag? no problem, just toss it in back with the rest of your gear. Tuners are durable too but once again keep tuning them! seems to take a variety of different Guaged strings without effecting Tonality. overall one heck of a beast, mine's starting to look like Van Halen's Frankenstein but still sounds good!
Value:
for a new Guitarist, you cant get much better for the price of this Rocker. Its no ESP, but for practice or "getting the lead out" this is a great Guitar!
Desirability:
Looks wise? Its no High-end Guitar, you get what you pay for...regardless of what others tell you. My Guitar is a standard Blue, but whats in the looks anyway?
Sound:
The Stock Buckers are pretty decent for the price of this Guitar, but are a bit lacking when it comes to "tonal clarity"
Nice heavy "meaty" sound on the lower frets and fairly exceptional highs on the uppers. For the price you cant go wrong!
Ease of Use:
Frets are easy to find and chording is a cinch, the Neck however is a little thick and can cause hand cramps every so often (just take breaks)
Tuners are a little tricky at times and need re-tuning often.
works great with Digitech's RP series of pedals. and as for the whammy? nice add on but tends to make the strings fall out of tune easily, I would suggest stronger springs in the back.
Support:
Never have had any problems with this Guitar, its defenitly a keeper.
Overall:
Great Guitar for learning, awesome price & nice features make it Kid friendy and keeps holes out of parents wallets. You may find yourself upgrading in the future, but in my mind there is no better setup for the "just starting" Guitarist.

Feature:
Love the sound from the pickups! The string action is very light, perfect for a beginner or an accomplished player.
They do not come with tremelo systems, which for me would be a drawback, but for my son it actually is great, because it will save me from having to tune it up every time he used it.
Quality:
Perfect
Value:
You really get a great guitar for the money. My son loves it, and it did not cost me a fortune. I enjoyed playing it myself.
Desirability:
The shark tooth inlay on the fretboard makes this guitar stand out from the other Strat copies. The pickups are much better than the usual single coil from this type of guitar.
Sound:
For what it is designed for, it is perfect.
Ease of Use:
The Mikro came in tune and fully set up. The string action is amazing.
Overall:
This is the perfect sized guitar for my 9 year old son. The double coil pickups and the shark tooth inlay were the reasons for buying this one over the Stratocaster Squire. I was very happy when the guitar came perfectly set up, ready to play. I would definitely buy another one.
