This is a real good guitar for a great price. If you are strapped for cash and need a rock guitar quick, BUY THIS.

Sound
This guitar is a straight up rocker. Nothing too hard rock, but good for most regular rock and, with the right settings, you can modify it for soft rock. Sadly, the amp can kill the sound. The amp overloads a lot, because its only a small little thing, so you can't pull off chords too well and when you try to use power chords with other notes, they all come out blurry and static-y. But with a more sophisticated amp, the guitar could be very good.

Features
The accessories are very nice. The amp, as said isn't very nice, but still for the price is a nice bonus. The amp cable is a given if they give you an amp. I really like the auto-tuner, it helps me out a lot, but it doesn't work very well for acoustic guitars. The picks are just a fun little gift, they are pretty cool and match the guitar well.

Ease of Use
It's pretty easy to get a good sound, put volume and tone all the way up on the guitar and tremble all the way and you have a nice rock sound. You can still mess around with the MID, gain, bass, and pickups to get an even more unique sound. I personally like having volume and tone all the way up on the guitar, the pickups set to the farthest down, and having tremble and MID all the way up, with all other settings off. The only thing that makes this guitar a little… read more hard to use the the 'vibro' arm. You have to screw it in, but there are no directions how to use it, or what to do with it. And if your like me, and this is your first electric guitar, this can be confusing.

Quality
Not the best quality, but still nice. I don't really worry about anything breaking, except I get nervous sometimes when other people mess around with my guitar's vibro arm. The bridge bends pretty badly, and I just get scared someday it might snap. It hasn't, so it will probably last a while, and I plan on keeping the guitar till it does.

Value
For this price, this guitar pack is really good. You can get some professional sounds for chump-change.

Manufacturer Support
Don't need it.

The Wow Factor
It looks soooo nice, a sleek body, with sexy curves, with a shiny black finish. But some other colors would be nice, and it would be better if the pick guard was a different color. A white pick guard with the texture of the picks your get would look so nice.
