Really a great guitar, very well assembled and properly setted. Beautyfull wood grain for the body, excellent slim and fast neck, confortable compound finger radius (ideal for good chords and speedy solos), smooth and shining frets, awesome genuine Seymour Duncan pickups and Floyd Rose tremolo bridge. Sound is fantastic! Despite the heavy metal DNA and vocation of this guitar, clean sounds are very versatile, warm, full-bodied and round but always with a light "Stratocaster touch", especially in the second position (bridge + center pickups); obviously the distorted and saturated sounds are absolutely unbeatable, always well defined, despite the great power. I recommend buying this "racing" Stratocaster not only to those who play hard rock and heavy metal but to everyone need an "old school" classic "superstrat", because this is a really well built, comfortable and very versatile instrument for any musical genre. Special compliments to MUZIKER for the great price but in particular for the excellent service (only 5 days from the order and the package was delivered at home, here, in the Southern ITALY, in the original packaging, never opened from the factory!). Excellent! GRAZIE MUZIKER! Buy with total confidence. This is a great trusthworthy on line store!
