zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "replace the pickups & its good"

Sound: i would replace the pickups on this guitar. japanese guitars have very nice finishes and necks, but the electronics are no better than a made in mexico strat. Feature: nothing new to report, pretty regular strat features. Ease of Use: a fender strat is pretty easy to operate. Quality: if the electronics are substandard, the guitar is substandard. gets a five for bad pickups, pretty much a typical mim strat tone. Value: no, it isn't a bargain. i would compare it to squier, although squier has better pickups. Overall: i bought this guitar 2 months ago and i have too many fenders, as it is. i have too many guitars (along with being out of town for 5 weeks)and i didn't play it seriously until two weeks ago. i will probably trade this guitar for something else, but lefty guitars aren't always a good barter item. so, i am going to take my time.

Style of Music: rock?
