"Everyone in the store went "WOW" when they saw it....."

Sound: Excellent all round sound, very crisp and clean but can be overdriven. The choice of pick-ups is excellent - you can play a wide range of styles straight from the guitar with no effects ! Feature: Only trouble I found was getting a moulded case to fit !!!!! (I prefer the moulded to the supplied Deluxe Gig bag). Quality: Extremely well made..........may only critisism is it is a very heavy guitar ! Value: For the money an excellent and different guitar. Looks are astounding with mirror finish pick guard and fittings against the jet Black finish. Manufacturer Support: Not had any problems. The Wow Factor: Looks are astounding with mirror finish pick guard and fittings against the jet Black finish. Everyone in the store who saw it just went "WOW" ! Overall: I will definatly wear this product out........

Style of Music: Rock, Alternative

Sound: Great sounding guitar! Nice flexibility with the humbucker and the Twisted Tele single coil pickup. Ease of Use: Great feeling neck, and nice playing instrument. I second the other reviewer on the weight factor--this IS a heavy guitar, but I like that it feels solid and indestructible. Quality: Fit and finish were perfect, and intonation was spot on from the factory--it's hard to believe this is a Mexican made guitar (from all the bad reviews you read of Mexican-made Fenders).
