Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

After almost 9 month owning a guitar and playing it pretty frequent I want to write why I think this is the best guitar if you want to start playing. Just to be honest, this is the only guitar I own and only guitar I modified. Positives: - Perfect tuning stability with standard strings. Correct me if I am wrong about the gauge but I believe it’s .10. Anyway, if you changing to another gauge make sure to correct the tension of the springs on the bridge (it is simple don’t worry) - it has HSH pickup configuration with 5-way switch which gives you a really good ammount of different tones plus gives you a good slots configuration for future upgrades and modifications if you want any - tremolo bridge - it is just nice to have it but I barely using it as I still suck in playing (adult life gives you little time, ughhh) - fretboard is nice, no sharp angles, satin finish on the back, pretty comfy. - additional point to the tuning stability - tuners is actually good quality, precise enough, had no problems with them - inner shielding with paint and metalization on the bridge cover which protects you from the hum, yes. - last but not tge least - it comes with a cable, so no need to buy it separately. Also in package there alen wrenches for intonation and truss rode adjusting Negatives: - frets itself needs a bit leveling if you want to lower the action (strings height). Not immediately though and it still fully playable and enjoyable, right - slightly unbalanced. Fretboard and headstock is a bit heavier than body. Playing standing might require a good strap with rubberized shoulder. Not affecting when playing sitting - stock pickups are not the best for sure. Had really hard time with pitch harmonics until replaced them with dragonfire screamers which cost btw 40$ including taxes for a humbuckers set (pretty nice, eh?) - also for my guitar the volume nob was slightly elevated which I did not even mentioned for some time. Just for a note, I am a bit perfectionist but I am not fixing the nob cause that is how unnoticeable this problem That is pretty much it, sorry for mistakes in the text, english is not my first language and I am writing from the phone. To summarize: this is a good quality guitar, consider the price - the best value for the buck I’d say. Squier from fender will not give you same rich tone capabilities for sure but as for the pros and cons I can’t talk as I do not have it. Hope it will help you in your decision 🤘
