Sturdy and with very few downsides
I have one from the Newen brand (Argentina). Solid wood, Paradinamic microphones, and sturdy pots and switches. The body is made of two-piece Patagonian lenga wood. A marvel.

Horrible, but I love it.
I don't have this specific model, I have a basic one with a flat body and two potentiometers. It was constantly out of tune, the pots made a lot of noise, it fretted from the 09th fret onwards, the pickups sucked the soul out of the strings, the body wood is cheap laminate. BUT I LOVE IT.
I've had it for almost 12 years and I've grown to love it slowly and made it very much mine over the years. I've made a lot of money with it in dive bars and seedy joints. I turned it into my "workhorse" for almost any use and it's my favorite. It's uncomfortable to use, heavy, and with a lot of booming bass and treble, if I could make it sound good, I can make anything sound good.
