Great Budget Guitar
My first "serious" electric guitar, after a Wesley Flying V and a Jaxville Jackson copy. It's survived many years of abuse, and has been resurrected with a layer of purple car paint ('cus why not), Iron Gear pickups and Wilkinson hardware. This is by no means a quality instrument, but it's a great beginner guitar and I refuse to pass it on, so it still gets used heavily even in professional shows.

Great for learning
I learned to play on one of these, and it was great for that. I can't say it's very good for studio work, but it served its intended purpose well.
