very obvious...wat u expect fr this??????????? its samick, although some lamers think this guitar is as good as fender or gibson, i reckon so. if its really as gd as fender or gibson, y ppl still choose to buy them??? becoz its branded???? i had three guitars, a fender strat, a gibson standard les paul, and of cos this cheap wannabe guitar. Man, if u guys still think this guitar is as good as fender or gibson, i guess u guys are still green..... no matter what....this guitar look ok over all.....

Play mostly Metallica, Iron Maiden & Scorpion.
Sounds great but if the pickups were changed to EMG 60 & 81 would be the better.
Even though I'm just using a Vantage VG15R & ZOOM 505II still sound extremely POWERFUL.
Able to make any noise you wish as long you have the effects.
