I bought this Strat copy as a project. As something I could fix up and give it to someone who just started learning the guitar. I was very pleasantly surprised and have to admit- this guitar arrived quickly and in much better shape than I expected, based on the price. Here's a little bit of nitpicking before going into the positive aspects:
The hardware is generic and what I would expect from a cheap instrument. That includes the tuners, bridge, pickups, pots and switch.
With that out of the way, the rest is pretty amazing:
The neck has a rather big C profile but plays incredibly well, even with smaller hands. The frets were seated perfectly and there was no fret sprout. A little polishing was all that's required. The nut- while made from plastic- was well cut allowing perfect first fret action. Paint job of the lightweight body was perfect. I highly recommend these guitars to anybody who's into modding- I replaced the pickups and tuners and got a well sounding and very playable instrument as a result.
