"excellent guitar for a beginner"

Feature:
great accessories. it could use a different tuner as it only tunes standard and tons of songs are in drop D, but tuners aren't expensive. Everything but the guitar's made by fender, so there's quality there. Also, the tone knobs don't really do anything. everything else works great though. A humbucker would be nice to have though.

Quality:
Everything's great. My only complaint is the radio waves the amp picks up

Value:
Great beginner's guitar. Very inexpensive for the quality you get, especially with all of the accessories.

Sound:
great sound for the price. the amp picks up radio signals faintly, around 1100 kHz AM radio. it's too faint to hear when you're playing, even quietly. You really only need to use this amp for practice though, so it isn't a big deal. The distortion's pretty good and the amp can get pretty loud (I only keep it on 2 for practicing in my room and you can still tell what song it is from my basement)

Overall:
I expect to keep it for several years until I get better and need a better guitar. Great guitar for beginners like me. I'd suggest this for anyone who's been playing for less than 2 years. When I buy a nicer one, I'll definately look at a Fender stratocaster, essentially the same but a little nicer.

"Best beginner's guitar!"

Feature:
It came with an amp which, while small, has great quality. It also came with a guitar tuner, which comes in handy. It also has a book that teaches you how to play, but I didn't use that; I get guitar lessons instead. But one BIG problem is that the bag barely fits the guitar.

Quality:
It's pretty durable, but the thing where you plug in the amp cable on the guitar will come loose (I had to get that fixed at the music store where I bought this).

Value:
Great price for a great guitar.

Sound:
The sound on this thing is great. The amp has a great clean channel and INSANE distortion. But, it's not the best.

Support:
Never dealt with the company that made this guitar.

Overall:
This is my first guitar, I've been playing it for about three months, and I haven't been unsatisfied with it. However, it really is more of a guitar that's good to learn on. When I finish my guitar lessons, I'm gonna get a Fender American Strat, I've heard those sound better.
