i truly love this guitar! to make it clear, i'm not a pro player, not even intermediate...i started to play again like 10 months ago after 35 years of not playing. i'm sure there will be better guitars, in a probably higher end price, but for the price, it fits truly my needs as a new player.
the sound is great...typical stratocaster sounds, it's what i was missing when i bought 10 months ago my singlecut guitar (Epiphone 1959 LP Standard Outfit ADCB). and to be clear... the sound of my LP is beautiful too, especially with those lovely Gibson burstbuckers pickups, but i'll be honnest with you, for now i'm playing much more on this +-400 euro strat than on my +-900 euro LP. this says enough about the sound, playability and quality of the guitar.
so it's just a lovely guitar, beautiful in white blond, and easy to play. i have put 5 stars to it and 4 stars on the features. 4 stars because even tho i'm not a whammy bar guy at all (i never use it) ... i think the whammy bar is really hard to bend. this has to do with the way they mount it i believe.
For me, it's no deal breaker! i really love playing it and it makes me sometimes feel guilty for having spent almost 900 euro on my LP which i still barely use.
Well, this is just a review from a beginner perspective. great sound, great look, great price and the setup is very decent i believe. i didn't do anything to adjust the strings height as it felt good at arrival.
