I bout this G-10 which is the lower end of the Tradition models. There is nothing low end about this guitar. Standard Strat style, SSS configuration, 22 med frets.
Mine is a Cherry sparkle finish that is pretty flawless. It was made in Korea I would guess about 2004. Tradition pickups which come in at about 7K, Maple neck, rosewood fingerboard
Sound

This guitar has amazed me since I first started playing it. I've played Classic Rock and SRV/Clapton style blues for over 35 years. Most played amp is an Ashdown, and this guitar sings!! Full sound but all the Strat style you would expect from this type of guitar, twangy to deep.

Plays like you would expect from a guitar costing quite a few hundred dollars more. It is like butter, great action, smooth neck for quick movement. I love it

Just got it this week , but looking at everything can't see too much of a problem, maybe a tuner upgrade at some point but the stock ones are more than servicable

Been playing over 35 years, been with a road band, played with Zappa's drummer Billy Mundi, built a custom Fender strat, reverse maple headstock gold hardware, 1968 Guild F-112 12 string acoustic, Tradition MTP 475 Semi hollow body which I am rebuilding at this time, and a Silvertone SD 50. Ashdown amp, Crate amp
This guitar is so smooth it is almost a crime!! I got it because of the Tradition I had and the construction was impeccable, and I also got this for a pretty low price. I can't really compare it to other guitars because it has a totally different feel to it.
I would replace it in a heartbeat if it were lost and I go pretty far to find it!
