On 2003-04-19, monkeyboy rated this Samick Strat a 5...(4728)
Purchase: I bought this guitar as my first and I've been playin for about 1.5 years w/ it now. It was only 120 dollars (American). I bought it on the store owners own personal recomendation for a sweet, cheap guitar that will last a long time, and man was he right!
Pros: I like the way it sounds, it sounds exactly like a Fender strat and it is lighter and less than half the price! Its got a glossy fretboard that makes for very easy finger slides and pretty good pickups, although I did decide to put a humbucker in it, the others are still good. It doesnt have to be tuned very often and its just an all around great guitar.
Cons: There's relly nothing that I dont like about it, it's great.
Quality: very durable, nice solid body, great coated maple fretboard and nice pick-ups.
Review Summary: SAMICK RULES!
