"Kick ass gitar on a budget"
Quality:
I like the looks of the satin finish. However it does mark easily. Just the slightest bump and you have a mark on it

Value:
Here is where this guitar really shines. A real FENDER made in the good old USA for this price. How can you beat it?

Desirability:
I knew from the minute I put my hands on the neck that this was going to be a great guitar for me. I love the neck. I played it for 7 hrs the first night I had it. I felt like part of me and I never got tired.

Sound:
neck is very warm but needs a little more volume seem a little weak to me

Overall:
This guitar will be with me a long time. I may start looking for a Nashville Tele just for the additional sound of the middle pickup. But this one is going nowhere.
