Really good starting out Guitar

by Dogman from Flagstaff, AZ USA
September 18, 2006
Music Background: Church Worship Team
Bought this guitar a year ago and still enjoy it as my practice guitar. on stage I use a Fender Showmaster which has way better pickups, alot cleaner sound. This Strat is a well built guitar, you can... read more [+]'t beat it for the price but, the pickups are a bit noisy, not a real clean sound and is not the quality of my Seymour Duncans on my Showmaster. The strings on the fretboard has the typical buzzing on the low string frets unless you raise the strings real high but, who would want to play it! close [-]

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
