Subject:

Best bang for the buck

Quality:

This is the first guitar I have had in this price range that didn't need the strings replaced immediately. The SIT strings are quality that help give the guitar it's heavy tone.

Sound:

Very dark and heavy. Nice.

Reliability:

Just got it but it is a very solid piece.

Overall:

Beautiful guitar. Fit and finish is top notch and the vintage style is buttah!

Playability and Feel:

The neck is slim without feeling cheap. Frets are level and polished nicely. No fret buzz.

Tone:

Very dark. I can't see wanting to change the pickups anytime soon.

Finish:

The distressed finish is very well done and not overdone. The pictures don't do it justice. The binding around the headstock is a nice touch.

Action:

Action was spot on.

Just got it

Overall:

This guitar looks, plays and sounds great right out of the box.

Playability and Feel:

Feels smooth with easy bends. Neck was pretty straight unlike most other manufacturers.

Tone:

Can get almost any sound I want. Coil taps a big plus.

Great looks

Came 1/16" straight across the board. Much better than most high price guitars.
