Best guitar I've ever owned. by Betty from Holbrook, MA, July 31, 2006 Music Background: pro Musician
“I've tried many guitars. This one's the best i've owned. Light weight compared to other guitars. Play weekly in a Country, Rock & Oldies band.
Great working tool. Strap it on and go ! Use with a Fender Twin amp.”
