Fantastic guitar, not beaten for this price
First of all, I am an amateur guitarist and have only had limited access to other guitars to compare against. However even I can plainly see and feel the difference in build quality and finish when compared similarly priced models. I was unsure how this would sound as the electronics are made in house by sire, however it has a wide range of tones with the single coils being comparable to a fender strat (USA made). This is a guitar to buy, cherish and hand down to the next generation,

Great guitar with amazing pickups
First of all, the guitar for me has a real wow factor. The fret ends where a bit sharp though, so for me a bit of a disappointment. All the reviews I've seen where extremely complimentary about the fret ends, so maybe I had some false expectations. Then again, nothing I couldn't fix myself. But not perfect frets. The action was a bit high, so setup could be better. I had a weird blueish spot in the green paint job as well. But then the great parts: the pickups and the neck. Wow, just wow. The pickups are really articulate, bright and clear. Not your typical heavy metal pickups. But so darn good for cleans, blues and rock. Behind the covers the electronics look really good. Great solder jobs and very, very decent wiring quality! Maybe some flaws on the outside. But the heart of the instrument is just very good. No need for pickup or electronic changes. Just some fret end treatment and fret polishing, a nice setup and your good to go. I dare to say: this is right up there with Fender.

Makes no Sense
This should be a $1k guitar. It's not its half that. Feels better than some MIM fenders I've played, highly recommend
