This tonewood offers bright, well-balanced tones and exceptional projection on stage. Thanks to the excellent note separation offered by maple, each string makes its presence felt.

Abhishek Sharma –
A great guitar to take you right up to professional standard
It is very well finished and looks awesome, particularly for a relatively budget / entry level electric guitar. It played well straight out of the box, with only slight tuning required.
With its HSH pickup configuration it provides options to play a wide range of musical styles from metal to blues, although it looks much better for playing metal / rock.
I am delighted with my purchase and would certainly recommend it to others.
