"Neck-thru Black "biker" axe"
Verified Purchaser

I own seven guitars from a variety of manufacturers. Just another guitar.
Sound
Sound--The neck pickup has a PAF sound, very balanced. The bridge pickup has a mid-boost that is good for leads; it can be heard above all other instruments. However, there is a price to be paid for this...it's not that good for rhythms. I changed this pickup with a Dimarzio PAF Pro.
Features
The five position switch splits the neck pickup into two single coils which I found to be the most useful for rhythms (position two).
Ease of Use
This guitar is set-up like a "strat". It looks like a Fender and it has the five position switch except it has humbuckers. The frets are "fat", the body mahogany and it is neck-thru. The off-set neck inlays are a little small and sometimes I get "lost" in the upper frets.
Quality
I like the quality. No problems.
Value
High value and a great price.
Manufacturer Support
No problems so far.
The Wow Factor
Black monster...looks like a "biker" axe.
