Features : 7
-This is a pretty generic guitar
-21 frets
-3 coil pickups
- 5 way switch

Sound : 7
You have to fool around with it to get a good sound when its distorted. I have a fender frontman 75w amp and a boss ds-1 pedal...not the best combination.

It isn't the greatest when played clean

Action, Fit, & Finish : 8
When i got the guitar it was in rough shape so i took it into a guitar shop and they fixed it up nicely. There is almost no action on my guitar.
it is built very very solid and it is still looking new after being beaten pretty good

Reliability/Durability : 9
It is very durable and is quite reliable.
ive used it for one gig and i broke my 'A' string during the first song.
coincidence i hope.
im looking for a new guitar though as i write this.

Customer Support : 1
never any problems since i got it.
the company doesnt exist anymore i dont think

Overall Rating : 6
For the $70 i paid and the $60 it cost to fix up, its been a great little guita for the price.
I played it for one show and a string broke...but thats fine.
The pegs are starting to get a little bit loose but its getting kinda old.
Ive played it for just over a year solid

Features : No Opinion
Made in 1996 in Indonesia. It's a 21 fret strat copy. It's plywood with with a rosewood fingerboard. It has 3 single coil pickups with a five way switch. Gotoh style tuners. The neck is 25 1/2' scale. And a 2 tone sunburst. white pick guard. The guitar came with a 6 foot black cable and a black cloth gig bag.

Sound : 6
I play a lot of AC/DC , Zeppelin and Gun's n' roses. It suits my style fairly well but needs improvment. I use a peavey rage 158 with this guitar. The pickups hum in the bridge position but not in any other. IT has a nice single coil twang to it but breaks up a bit when played hard. The guitar sound bad clean but the distortion is acceptible. It's a bit thin on bass and a little too bright somtimes.

Action, Fit, & Finish : 5
The factory setup was horrible the action was an inch tall!. the pickups wern't agusted. The sunburst is beautiful. The bridge was properly routed and the pickguard was cut well. The action is horrible the frets are uneven and poorly installed. the nec was made with flawed maple (it has a knots in it). The electronics are fairly quiet. the piant is good with no flubs or buubles.

Reliability/Durability : 8
I would not play this at a gig because it buzzes (the frets can be redon). Other than the frets this thing is built like a tank, the finish is thick and the neck is fitted right. I can depend on it and if I had the frets redon I would play it without a backup.

Customer Support : No Opinion
The company dissaperd of the face of the earth a long time ago.

Overall Rating : 8
2 years now.The giutar is a very good beginer giutar.If I lost it I would just by a real good one . but there more money.
