Good tone for such a cheap guitar. It reminds me of a fat strat. I think that's what Hondo was going for on this.
Action, Fit, & Finish

There probably was some tampering with this thing since it's a flea market guitar. The bridge seems to be out of alignment with the neck so the strings are not directly over the pickup posts. After some adjustments the action wasn't bad.

The finish is the best part. Very nice and it looks like it has withstood some abuse! It must have been wet at some point because the pickup switch is rusted tight and I have to tug on it to move it. I'm going to end up replacing the pickguard, pickups, switch, and pots.

I've been playing for 16 years and have owned just about every brand of guitar. If your looking for a very cheap alternative to a real strat, I feel confident this is the way to go. You can find one like I did used for next to nothing!
