Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
I can't find a better product for the price. It's a Fender!
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
Never had any problem in over 10 years of use.
General
Your general opinion of this product.
Excellent guitar for rockabilly to jazz to rock. Proper utilization of the toggle switch and tone and volume dials for the pickups can give you a myriad range of tones.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Feels good. Not too heavy, not too light. Frets and neck are fast. Controls are easy to get to. Sometimes overzealous playing I have flipped the toggle switch by mistake.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
Like I said before, using the toggle switch is key. The single coil is bright, but not overbearing. The humbucker is thick and has a lot of volume. It drowns out the single coil when toggled in together unless you dial up the volume on the single coil to compensate
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Looks great.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
Good out of the box.
