I LOVE THIS GUITAR

My least expensive FLOYD ROSE guitar. And yet I keep grabbing it. The frets needed a polish and a ton of oil on the fretboard. Oiled up the FR and it is smooth as butter, best FR special I have.

Perfect vfm. Don't buy without owning a decent amp/multi fx.

Headline says it all. Playability and frets are fine. Bridge needs sharpening on the knife edges. Pickups are pretty and i mean pretty bad. For the price it is absolutely worth it especially for a beginner guitarist looking to become familiar with floating bridges. I got it as my secondary superstrat for quick band rehearshals/trips/vacation. Generally i needed an instrument where damage would not be a main concern of mine. I would not recomend this as a main axe for an intermidiate/advanced player but one would already know that at this price point.

Good guitar with some flaws

I bought this guitar to be modded. It is fine, comfortable thin neck, cool look. Stock pickups are ok, but nothing special, generic flat sound. Floyd is to be blocked straight away, otherwise guitar does not stay in tune. Two of the saddles just broke when I replaced the stock strings, a bit of a bummer. Cheap replacement, though.

In general, after all the moddings, new electronics and proper setup, the guitar is very good, low action, plays really well.

In general, in combination with a good processor, it is suitable for 80's metal and modern metal generes

This guitar is suitable for hi-gain guys who like to play metal and cut fast solos. Floyd Rose works fine, is capable of different Floyd rose things. However, I would not call his work perfect.

From the cons: the guitar came to me in not very good condition, possibly the cost of transportation. The clear sound is very bland, which is logical. Not enough sustain, which was very noticeable.
