If you thought Jackson Dinky Strat bodies were small, you aint seen nothin yet! This has a very small Strat-ish body in black and it's actualy heavy, Unknown wood on body and neck. Neck is 25.5" scale, painted black like the body, 22 frets on a rosewood board. Cheap ass chrome tuners and Fender vintage style bridge in chrome. Controls consist of 1 volume and 1 tone and one side mounted jack with one humbucker in the bridge position.

A buddy of mine borrowed it from his father in law. He wants to paint flames on it. Sound wise, it sounds like most any cheap electric guitar. I was playing it clean while my buddy was playing his acoustic guitar. We were playing some country stuff and it did the trick for that. I kicked in the distortion and delay and it sounded pretty cool. If it were all I had, I wouldn't complain too much, but I would make plans to moth ball it as soon as I could afford something else. It reminds me of a SD JB humbucker sound in a way. For a piece of shit, it sounded ok.

Sucked. Somebody trashed the action. It looks like they adjusted the bridge saddles and never touched the neck at all. This thing needs some work bad. It can be fixed. I imagine I will be asked to do so. I like doing it anyway, it's fun to work on guitars. It's seems like an older model like an early 80's axe. Probably a department store catalog.

If it's as old as I think it is, it's holding up pretty good. I think it could withstand another 15 years or more, who knows.

I have played some realy disgusting oddball guitars in my time. This one looked allright I guess. It sounded good and was palyable. My buddy's father in law bought it for $30 and did it just because it was cheap. He has alot of acoustic guitars. Not bad for a cheap guitar.

Bought it from a friend for $75 Canadian, he threw in a samick amp, and a distortion box....??? Anyways, one tone, one volume. Red finish, it's horrible.

Sounds like junk plugged in, sounds worse unplugged, unless you're gonna make a Sgt. Pepper concept album, and are gonna use this for the annoying shrill sound, skip it. I'm a britrock guy.

the pickups were installed backwards, nuff said

Wouldn't use it for public use at all, I don't own any other electric, saving for a epiphone union jack. So for electric songs, I borrow, or crank my takamine with overdrive, still sounds better

However I am sure I could beat it against a wall and it would not break

Only review I've ever found for this thing. Whoever made it has quite successfully, and justifiably gone into hiding

I've been playing for 4 years, still very naive with elecs, I do own an acoustic Segovia, and an Acoustic-Electric takamine. As far as it getting stolen, I can't give the sucker away.

Don't buy it

One humbucker that sounds like its a refrigerator magnet with cheap winding. Very low output. volume and tone knobs. High action. Everything that can possibly be bad on a guitar is on this thing. Sounds like complete crap. This thing is the same as the black thing. I don't understand why it got the good review. I think the pickup was probably replaced in that one.

It suits no musical style whatsoever. NO ONE should buy it!

Nothing was set up properly. The ground wire had to be repaired repeatedly. The thing might as well have been made of cardboard.

Never gig with it. It'll probably fall apart. It had very cheap and shoddy electronics

What company? They don't even have a website!

Never buy it
