It's got the tele body, which is nice (huge fan). The tuning knobs don't feel like they're going to snap the strings, like a lot of other cheap guitars. I haven't had a problem with the pickups or anything. The frets felt good on my fingers, and allowed for a bit of faster playing. Not as many frets as a lot of other guitar, but good for solid rhythm and basic leads.

It's got a very dirty feel to the sound, which is a good thing for different styles of punk and hardcore. I wouldn't call the amp noisy, but I thought it sounded good through my Line 6 head, but then again, what doesn't? It doesn't really handle ska all that well, which is a shame because of the appropriate look of the guitar.

I bought mine used and there was an issue with one of the frets not playing right. It was an easy fix though and it's been playing fine ever since. The design on the guitar gives it a very unique look that will make you stand out at any show.

This thing is fantastic for live shows at some of the smaller to medium sized clubs. The unique look will make any guitar player the center of attention. I've played dozens of shows with this thing and I haven't had any problems.

I would be lost if this thing got broken. I love it almost as much as I love my 76 Telecaster. I mean, the Tele is obviously a better guitar, but this thing is great for a musician that wants to get a cheap guitar but doesn't want to have the generica that comes along with Squiers.

This guitar might survive live playing if there was a DUMP nearby. Hardware OK, strap button already loose. I wouldn't depend on this guitar unless it was used as a boat paddle. Use it on a GIG ?? Not in this lifetime.

I have been playing for over 30 years and have an extensive collection. I LOVE cheap teles and copies which I modify. I have some GREAT ones! If it were STOLEN, I would try to find the guy....and send him a SYMPATHY card, and point him to the nearest hospital so he could get his fingers sewn back on. This guitar has the WORST FRETWORK of any guitar I have EVER run across. Bound fretboard, and the fretwire is sticking over the edge on the whole guitar, and they are SO jagged and sharp , you could use it to cut firewood. HORRIBLE PEICE OF JUNK. I'm done.

Tele style body with checkered racing stripe. The stripe graphic was factory applied and had some very minor smears. Anything but a tele with stop tailpiece and two white/black humbuckers. Alder body with rosewood fretboard. Sealed tuners. I got the black - also come in orange. Thin frets - 22 with dot inlays. Made in China.

Sound is fine. Pickups are quite good for imports. Confusing guitar - it's a tele body, with LP bridge and tailpiece. Two humbuckers give a full sound.

Bad location of the bridge. It's angled poorly. I couldn't intonate the high strings E, B, and G. I removed the bushing (holds the bridge height screw), filled the hole, and drilled another 1/2 inch hole behind. The bridge sits parallel to the tailpiece and now intonates! Also, the 3-way switch was defective (very rare for a new guitar)I replaced it.

It's a cheap guitar - could of been a better design.

These guitars are selling cheap (about $129) because of the poor location of the bridge. If you do guitar repair - have fun - it will transform into a decent playing guitar.
