Purchase: i got this at my local guitar store for $300 canadian, give or take.
Pros: EVERYTHING. this guitar outplays almost anything else i have ever played. there is only one guitar that i have liked better than this one, and it was a $1100 ibanez - and with this guitar being almost 4 times cheaper i think it is WELL WORTH IT. the neck is FANTASTIC. it plays like HEAVEN. the body shapeand headstock are wicked also (i got mine in grey metal, very cool). pickups don't sound too shabby either! great access to the high frets also. it can stay in tune for ages also! i have been playing for a few years and i know enough to determine an ass-kicking axe when i play one. this is a remarkable deal.
Cons: there are a few things i don't like it. liek someone else said previously about this guitar the jack comes loose often, but that's no sweat, just a quick tighten with your hand or plyers and your good for a week. the thing i dislike most about this guitar is the tremolo bridge. it's fairly low quality and it makes the guitar go noticably out of tune. that can be replaced though.
Quality: excellent. i have seen no problems with this at all.

Summary: if you want a good rockin' axe for an astonishing price, GO OUT AND BUY ONE!!! they are unreal!!!

Purchase: I got this guitar from a local music store called BandBox in a guitar/amp deal for $350.00 with a Kustom KGB-30 amp. On it's own, the guitar is worth $240.00. By the way, the KGB-30 is a great amplifier.
Pros: I love practically everything about this guitar. The shape, the color, the hardware, the pickups, the tuners, the neck, everything.
Cons: The only problem I've ever had with this wonderful guitar is that the jack keeps coming loose, though all I have to do is reach down and tighten it with my hand and that will last several days
Quality: I'm 14 and I have been playing since I was 10. This is my second guitar. My first was a Squier Affinity Strat, which is a rad guitar to start out on. I thought, since I had outgrown the beginner phase, that I could use a new one, so I got this and I wasn't dissapointed. I got it in Red Metal, which I think is the sexiest color. It has fantastic tuners, which which stay in tune for many, many hours, the PowerSound humbuckers have a cheap- sounding name but possess awesome tone. Shortly after I bought this, the Tom Delonge Signature Strat came out. Blink-182 has been my favorite band since, like, 1994 so, naturally, I wanted. I didn't have enough money so I settled for just buying the Invader pickup and having my old bridge humbucker replaced. I found that the PowerSound pickups have almost the same exact tone as the Invader, but the Invader has a little more low end and more sustain, so it wasn't quite necesary to have that put in.

Summary: This a great guitar for such a low price. Wether you play heavy metal, punk rock, emo, pop punk, rock & roll(all of which I play) and are not satisfied with your current guitar, then this is an awesome deal without having to pay several thousand dollars. GO BUY IT, GOD DAMNIT!
