Good Points

Superficially looks like the real thing. Nice finish in black and gold.


Bad Points

Loose fittings. poor pickups. Frets can have rough edges. Very heavy (weight)


General Comments

I use this guitar in a semi-pro band together with the roland cube 60 reviewed elsewhere. Having previously used burns and fenders I was a little disappointed by the muddy sound. I have adjusted the pickups to gain a little improvement. The machine heads are a little slack and allow the strings to work loose and I have had to spend time tightening up various switches etc that have worked loose. I paid £370 for the guitar and have owned it for two years. You could add a £1000 on for the real thing so pound for pound it isn't such a bad buy, but I wish I had bought another tele instead.
