Sound: Pretty good sound, but the stock strings aren't the best. Feature: My tremolo broke where the whammy screws in, so now my whammy bar is useless. Ease of Use: Honestly, anyone could use this guitar. It is easy to use, and I can get it to sound like anything between an SG and a Les Paul. Quality: The only problem I have had is the tremolo(see above) and the nut on the output jack came loose, but that is VERY minor. I have had this guitar for eight years, and it is still in great shape accept for a few bumps and bruises(which every guitar eventually gets). Value: Very cheap and very good quality. Everyman price and a very durable guitar with a wide range of tones. For beginners and experienced players. Manufacturer Support: Never had to use it. The Wow Factor: I has the looks of any strat, metallic paint, and a low price- this might as well have sexy printed on it in high-gloss paint! Overall: I have had this guitar for eight years, and it has served me well. It has very little cosmetic damage, and the only other damage is the broken tremolo(which just broke this month), so it is a very good product.

Sound: the sound is amazing. I love it a lot. I am planning on switching out the bridge pickup for a humbucker soon (it doesn't really need it but I kinda wanna be able to match my kramer vanguard on the lower end of things). So I give it a nine just because it is a little bit trebley for my taste but still amazing. by amazing I mean I can compete with my friends Gibson (not epiphone) Les Paul (sound quality wise, it beats his because I play it better) Feature: It's great tuners, great pickups, 5 way toggle switch, good knobs and pots Ease of Use: you don't have to sit there tinkering for half an hour to get it to work but really ease of use depends on how good you are at playing it. Quality: It's an amazing quality guitar; though occassionally the output jack come loose and you have to screw it back in by hand Value: amazing guitar. it's good for beginners (it was my first guitar) and advanced players (I still use it). Definitely worth the money Manufacturer Support: well the way I see it if you don't need to call support then the service is great The Wow Factor: It's a strat one of the sexiest guitars around (honestly it's so sexy I named it roxanne). the only reason I give it an 8 is because I'm a sucker for Flying V and SG style guitars Overall: One of the greatest guitars I have ever owned or played (I much prefer it over my friend's les paul, my former guitar teachers epiphone casino, or even guitars in stores that I fantasized about for months only to find out I like my strat better) honestly the only guitar I prefer over this one is my Vanguard (which is probably not as good of quality it's just bassier and fits my playing style better)

Sound: Considering the price, compared to other more major brands such as Gibson and Fender itself, it does sound good. Feature: it comes with a tremelo, however... it throws the guitar out of tune a lot because of the not so good quality strings. Pickups are good for the price. Ease of Use: Extremely easy to use, great for a first electric guitar. Quality: It is made by Fender... what else can i say? Value: Great value for money. Manufacturer Support: Once again, FENDER! The Wow Factor: It has the classic Strat look, so sexy. Overall: All, i can say is great value for money and that for a first electric guitar... this is the one!

Sound: Sounds like an electric guitar. Quality: For a cheap ass guitar, this is the tops. I got one years ago for my very first guitar... in the time since, ive smashed it, thrown it, stomped on it with motorcycle boots, and punched its lights out with my fist (which almost broke my hand.. i don't suggest you do this). Anyway, its got its share of paint chips and dents, but the sucker keeps on playing, and for the abuse stays in tune just fine. amazing. Value: Get one, if this is your first guitar or you just need a guitar in a pinch.

Sound: The sound is alright, not the best, but some humbuckers would kill it!(i mean that in a good way) Feature: it came with a poopy amp, and a poop tuner.Strings are also not so good. I bought those slinky strings for it and it deffinately holds tune better Ease of Use: its a good guitar for the price. Action is too high so you will have to lower it. Quality: when i had it i always hit it on walls cuz im an idiot, but it still held up! Value: deffinately worth it. Manufacturer Support: Its Fender. I called to get a new tuner*cuz u get a warranty) and they sent me a 40 dollar tuner(chromatic) new strings, a strap and a dvd. The Wow Factor: i like it alot, but i wouldnt go buy it when i shop for a new guitar. Id rather have an Epiphone. Overall: Its a great guitar.It needs new strings, and the action lowerd but it sounds good, specially in ma Berhinger V-tone.

Back to Product Information
Sound: I've had it since August. At first it sounded good but after February the pickups started to give off a buzzing sound. I plan to upgrade them to Texas Special or Lace Sensors. Feature: It looks like a Fender Strat. Plus how can you hate the metallic colors? Ease of Use: As said before it's good at first but just be prepared that you might encounter a buzz from your pickups. It's a great practice guitar. I use it now for finger endurance by placing 11 gauge strings to get greater bends and sustain on my Gibson ES 335. But I still love this guitar more as it is my first electric guitar. Quality: Lemme tell this guitar really holds up man. I've bumped it into walls, desks, the stand and it even flat on it's face two weeks ago and there are no dents or scratches. And as an FYI no it could be a reason my pickups are giving off a buzz LOL The Wow Factor: Never had to use it. Overall: It's a great beginner guitar as is. If you want you can modify it by adding some new pickups and/or a new neck to meet your standards. That's what I plan to do within the next month.
