I think it's a late 80s model . It has one humbucker , and two single coils . It's light blue with a floating trem . It has three toggles two volumes and a tone control . Looks like a strat style body . All these switches and toggles are too confusing , because the pickups are horrible .
Sound
:
1
I play all styles of music , jazz , blues , rock , metal . This guitar plays great , but sound horrible . Dull and lifeless , they are the worst pickups i've ever played . Read the other review and had to write this because it was so misleading , it's the reason I bought this guitar . Trust me I own alot of high end stuff and this guitar is horrible sounding . The action , neck , body style and trem seem to be good , but plugged in it is the most awful souding guitar i've ever owned . For the guy to say it's better than a Les Paul , PRS , or any other great guitar , he must be lying and never owned any of them , period , end of story .
Action, Fit, & Finish

It's a great looking , great playing guitar , but the pickups and sound are not as good as a Epiphone or Squier . It's unfortunate because it does play well and seems to be made very well also . Finish is also not bad .

Overall Rating
:
No Opinion
I have been playing for about 15 years . Have owned at least 30 guitars and still own 10 . In order to keep this guitar a pickup change is a no brainer . Unfortunately or fortunately this guitar plays and feels alot like my usa made Jackson RR1 , thats why i bought it . I have a Les Paul , Parker fly , Ernie Ball , Jackson , A couple Ibanez guitars , Takamine , Taylor and so on . For the other guy to say he got rid of his PRS and Gibson no effin way on earth . Just so you know also to put into perspective I have a Mesa boogie Dual Rectifier and 50 cal plus , Marshall 84 JCM 800 Super Lead 2203 , Fender Roc Pro 100 watt head , Marshall MG , Johnson J station and this guitar sounds awful through all of them . Hopefully a pickup change will do the trick , if not this guitar will be out the door faster than you can blink an eye .
