Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Reviewer is an experienced stratocaster player. This guitar plays and sounds like a strat, slightly lighter due to the choice of wood. If you know how to properly set up a guitar then this thing is pretty awesome.

Matte black finish seems perfect, no grit or uneven spots.

The tremolo is legit. It holds a tune flawlessly sounds great. For beginners, its quality and reliability are also very trustworthy. It's better than any indio or firefly i've had and better than most iyv or harley benton.

Frets are well polished and have no sharp edges. There is no fret buzzing at all and the tuners are pretty good. Bridge pickup seems a little shrill but dialing back the tone control makes it acceptable.

This guitar is a good, affordable option to get your foot in the door. While it's considered a beginner model, it's full sized and weighs over 10 pounds. It's also a trusted name brand.
