Pros & Cons
Pros
It has a thicker neck then fender style guitars but the neck cups in my hand very comfortably. Other than the fret buzz, this guitar is boisterous enough to pick and strum unplugged. It is not thick, but some people may not like such a wide bodied gui... Read More
The red finish is beautiful and is in direct competition with the original. This will be considered blasphemy but fit and finish is probably better than the original in many respects. It still has some faint noise from the body, but i believe that is ... Read More
A mark of quality is the ends of the frets along the edge of the fret board. This is common for guitars that come from the factory. I play professionally for most of my life at age 53 saw this guitar for this price.
I've seen the best and now i have recently received what i thought would be a pretty good imitation that both my son and i could strum a little bit. Fantastic guitar. You can not beat the looks.
Cons
The placement of the jack plug is annoying. If you plug it to multi-effects (i use rp-155), it just get worse. It's too expensive to last just one year.
Highlights
Quality
I love this guitar and cant believe the gibsonlike quality and sound for the low price
No issues with the electronics and it plays and sounds good
The replacement guitar was much better and the sound quality was too
A sort of decent quality beach guitar idea but electric
Price
Comparable in every way except the price
Its the lowest cost guitar i own but it holds its own against the rest of my collection

One thing you must do when you get the guitar brand new is to tighten the truss rod as it will have been loosened for shipping
Mine was shipped in a cheap cardboard box within box but somehow managed to survive the ordeal of shipping without incurring an... Read More
I ordered in on line no tax free shipping at a lower price then the local guitar store
Competitiveness
The red finish is beautiful and is in direct competition with the original
Have strats teles lp prs dinky and a bunch of acoustics
Now you could probably add a zero onto the end of that price
But i am comparing a lincoln to a ford here

However the reader should be cautioned that not all dots are equal in this regard
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I have noticed roughly cut and sloppily painted f holes on some dots so not every dot seems to be manufactured consistently
