Lightweight punk machine
I really REALLY like this guitar. A LOT. It's light enough for a doughy kid like me to swing around like a wrapon on stage, and it's got a 22.7" scale length, which means you can move around the neck real fast. The stock pickups are probably some of the best single-coils I've ever heard: very articulate with single notes but can crunch up when you kick up the volume. HOWEVER, the tuners are the worst machines I've ever had the displeasure of using. They slip a lot, so it'll take awhile for your strings to finally settle in. Otherwise, fantastic guitar!
