Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? very well made.once tuned,it stays in tune. Reliability How has it stood up over time? only had it less than a month,but so far i am very well pleased. Overall Your general opinion of this product. a top quality guitar for the price.would reccomend it to anyone looking for a quality guitar. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? could not be any better.very happy with it. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? did not like the tone with the strings that came on it.ireplaced them with a set of martin medium gage strings and now the tone is perfect.but this is my preference and everyone may like the tone. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? good
very nice guitar

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? I say its pretty well built and feels great. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Ive only had it for a month, but I think (and hope)that it lasts! Overall Your general opinion of this product. My friend got one and he bragged about it so I got one. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? perfect Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? a little hollow, added the o-port and it helped a lot! Finish How did the stain or paint job look? I swapped out the pickguard because its way too thick. Action How was the action out of the box? Perfect!
Overall Great Guitar For The Money!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? The quality seems great for a China made guitar. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Not sure at this point, since I've only had in a couple of weeks. Overall Your general opinion of this product. This is my second Fender A/E guitar. My first guitar, which is my main guitar is a 140SCE. I absolutely love this guitar but haven't had my Tim Armstrong long enough to use those words to describe it yet. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? It has a bright warm tone. It should record well once I lower the action and change the strings. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Great! Action How was the action out of the box? Too high!
Great action,Great built in tuner,Great sound,Great guitar! Buy it!!!!!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? It is made better than other guitars with bigger price tags. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Just Got it. Overall Your general opinion of this product. This guitar from the factory is nothing to brag about, but with 3 changes this guitar sounds like my Martin. To start with the strings that comes from fender stink. Replace them with a set of Martin’s the heaver the better I went with 12’s. Next I put an o-port in the sound hole, it made the guitar sing like it was solid wood. The last thing I did was change the bridge pins to bone. I did all of this for $45 and the guitar sounds like I spent over $1,000 on it. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Light but full Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? mellow, smooth Finish How did the stain or paint job look? They way it should. Action How was the action out of the box? to low.- Fret Buzz
Just Perfect !

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Good as anything out there. Reliability How has it stood up over time? So far so good. Overall Your general opinion of this product. Awesome bang for the buck ~ worth twice the price at least. The concert size and mahogany body are just perfect for me. I have gone thru a few acoustics but will never part with this one. Pickup much better than other Fenders I have played also. Beautiful sound, easy playability, awesome looks ~ LOVE IT ! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? It Inspires! Easy neck, clean frets, warm rich sound with great projection. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Rich without loosing any highs either. Very responsive. Nice plugged in also. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Flawless! Action How was the action out of the box? Came with 12's and action was right on. No problems.
Great Price, made an even Better Gift.
