Feature:
The product has many great features. Two tone controls, three pickups, and five pickup settings on the selector switch.

Quality:
The product is very sturdy, I dropped it onto concrete from four feet off the ground and all it did was scratch it and place a very small dent on the bottom that is almost unnoticeable(no I didn't do it on purpose the stupid strap came off the back!) The pick guard also has a cheap plastic coating on it that starts to bubble in small spots, you can barely see them but they are there.

Value:
This product was definitely worth the money!

Desirability:
This is a beautiful piece of equipment! Looks just like a strat but even better because I don't like natural wood fret boards. The product has excellent features like two tone controls and three pick-ups! My friend that owns the squier strat took a picture of our guitars sitting side-by-side and my silvertone looks just as nice.

Sound:
The guitar is a great musical instrument at a very affordable price, especially for beginning musicians (myself included). The only drawback to the packaged deal is that smart III amp, they really should stop making them! They sound horrible and thats why it gets a 9! I bought a crate amp and the guitar sounds so much better with it. A friend of mine owns a squier stratocaster and a marshall amp and when we play together both guitars sound amazing! (can't say the silvertone sounds better but it sounds almost as good as the strat.)

Ease of Use:
Tune it, and you can play it straight out of the box. The tone controls and pickup selector give a lot different ways to play. This was my first guitar so I couldn't tell you if it's easier to play than other guitars, but on the other hand it does play just as well as my friend's squier strat.

Support:
they offer a lifetime warranty but when I sent in my warranty card the silvertone company had been changed to samick music or something like that so I got a nice "return to sender" stamp... no lifetime warranty for me because it was past the time allowed for sending in the card.

Overall:
I believe I will be playing this guitar until I can save up enough money to buy the Gibson SG I want or maybe a Fender stratocaster. It is an excellent product to learn on!

Feature:
yes!! of course it has a lot of accesories and everything was in perfect conditions . i love it ,because here in colombia they didn t sell the products 100% perfect. i wish that the guitar packs should to have a hard case, because it will take care with te guitar

Quality:
oh yes!! this product is made very well .

Value:
of course this product is cheaper. in my city are guitars made in colombia it cost around 200 dolars and only the guitar. its very expensive

Desirability:
everything is good

Sound:
this product is amazing . it has a great sound and

Feature:
My guitar was not part of the Package but it came with a extra set of strings which was pretty nice! I havent broke any strings yet so. lol Its nice to know the other strings will be there. The volume and the two tone knoos and the pickup selectors are the same features youll find on a Strat, so they are great! For money the whole guitar is great,would like upgraded pickups though. and better sustain.

Quality:
It is pretty tough, dropped it and got some scratches and a small dent but it puts character into your guitar. Im a fan of rough rugged and worn looking things. so the scratches dont bother me. The plastic cover on the pick gaurd started bubling so un aware if it would mess my guitar up bad I pilled it off. Didnt seem to do anything. Just a protective cover for scratches and such. knobs seem a litttle loose. but once again good for the money.

Value:
It is tottally worth the price.

Desirability:
The Tobacco burst which I have is a sexy looking guitar. Strat looking. and the headstock is cool. I like how stunning the Silvertone logo on the headstock looks. It is the background on my cell phone. : )

Sound:
For a biggener I dont have much experience on which sound I would prefer, but this guitar has a pretty good classic rock capacity and blues.

Ease of Use:
its eas to know where evertything is. I mean all ya gotta do is know how to play any guitar and there ya go!

Support:
No problems with the company Silvertone and all companies that make lower end cheap guitars are helping in encouragin lower income familes to play and get a guitar KEEP MUSIC ALIVE!!

Overall:
The best Ive used other then First Act. I plan on keepin all my instruments even after I buy additional guitars. for sentamental reasons and Fall back guitars if My others happend to "buy the farm" or what not.

Feature:
It came with everything a begginer really needs; a bag, an easy tuner, strings (crap, CHANGE THEM), an amp which ive already ranted about, a strap, and a cord which is low quality; get a better one and even with the crappy amp it sounds 5x better

Quality:
Mine came with no blemishes or anything. after nearly 6 months, it looks brand new still. i read some reviews which said the finish fades after a month, but i assure you mine has not. it still looks as beautiful as the day it came out of the box. i have the sunburst and the only difference between it and a fender strat is the name on the head

Value:
I think its a very good deal. it came with everything you need, although some of the stuff is kinda cheesy..

Desirability:
This guitar is, well, hot. its really lightweight which is amazing, i played my friends squire strat and its twice as heavy. its a really really good look alike of a fender strat. and the girls love it btw ;)

Sound:
Th best way to describe its tone is mud. the amp is really really loud, but it sounds like someone farting in a tub. the guitar itself apparantly sounds good with a better amp (which i dont have).

Ease of Use:
its really easy to use. its pretty much self-explanatory, which is good because there is no manual

Support:
didnt use it

Overall:
well ive had it for around 6 months and im starting to look for a better guitar. its amazing for beginners but, thats about it (again it probably sounds 10x better with a real amp). its a pretty nice guitar, it feels nice, its durable, beautiful, plays ok... although i wouldnt buy it if it was stolen

Feature:
great accesories! the only thing i didn't like was the tuner. thats just my personal oppinion since i happen to have already had a very nice tuner. there's nothing wrong with it.

Quality:
i've only had it for a few days, but I can tell its really well made. my sis dropped it from 8 feet in the air(she was standing on a couch) and it didn't get a scratch.

Value:
AMAZING VALUE!!!! it is by far the least expensive package with this stuff I've seen, and it is great quality!

Desirability:
it looks amazing---identicle to my friends strat

Sound:
it sounds amazing! its got a really great, warm, tone.

Ease of Use:
i took out of the box, plugged in the amp, and started playing. it doesn't come with instructions, bc it doesn't need any!

Support:
never dealt with them, so i'll just assume they're as great as this package.

Overall:
BUY IT!!!!

Feature:
The guitar came with all the beginner guitar players need and we got them all and the tuner is really good

Quality:
yes i love the frame and the way you can rest on your leg is awesome

Value:
an awesome price for all that

Desirability:
I love this guitar the performance and everything is great

Sound:
awesome i have been playing guitars for years and i bought this for my grandson and he loves it

Support:
Havent had one problem since we bought it

Overall:
I have trusted silverstone for all my begginers and they are proffesional guitar playist today

Feature:
The amp is pretty good not very many settings but good.... but as i said before i dont like the static when you turn on distortion

Quality:
although it is cheap this guitar is very well made.. some small parts like the bolt on the amplifier jack will get loose but very easy to tighten again.. one problem i did have is the bridge got loose after one month of owning it now it makes a really wierd sound when you hit the second string really hard

Value:
This guitar is great value... fun, practical, good looking and very hard to beat the price

Desirability:
Very good looking.. the black finish is thick and glossy and it looks like a strat! pure beauty

Sound:
The acoustic sound is performance quallity. The amp is very loud and packs a big sound. However the amp's distortion is awful.. very full of static but one thing i do like about it is it has a black metal, punk style which suits what i play the pickup selector has three settings that have alot of static and two that are quiet

Support:
havent had any problems yet so i dont know

Overall:
Overall this is a great guitar, not just for beginners but for people who want a cheap, well made, performance quality guitar
