Incredible value.
A must-have for heavy rhythm players. This has replaced a super-Strat (that cost over twice as much) as my main instrument for punk and metal. They could charge double the cost for this instrument and I would still buy one. The pickups carry a lot of punch and work very well with my Marshall DSL and Peavey 6505. The neck pickup is also surprisingly rich and clean going into a Vox AC15 and Fender Twin, although some players may find the lack of a tone knob discomforting.
The only drawback for me is that there was a slight blemish on the neck and headstock finishing.

Good guitar
I bought this guitar more than one year ago and this is what I can tell you after playing it almost every day during that year:
The guitar sounds very good, it's suitable for metal. So if you want a heavy and fat sound it's for you. Idk what else to say about advantages, but basically I like it very much, and don't regret about this purchasement.
However there are some disadvantages and they are related to the quality of assembly:
1. After about 9 month the volume potentiometer died.. it started to crunch and I even couldn't disable the volume... so I have to buy a new one and to change it.
2. One of the locking washer on the bridge that is used for adjust the scale length somehow felt down and got lost, so I had to but a new one and change it as well..
3. and there are some minor visualisation things, like paint drip, but they are not well visible, so I don't think it matters a lot.

It`s a beast!
Almost perfect straight out of the box.
This came with 09-42 strings on and for a Gojira D standard tuning its not gonna work. Restrung it with some d addaios 11-56 (exl117 d tuning set), adjusted the stringheight on the e,b,and g string side and it was good to go. This guitar playes awesome and I always wanted a Tele, but im not a fan of Fender. And I love the Charvel compound radius fretboards.

Excellent guitar
So far I'm very happy with this guitar - it's even better then I expected. Locking tuners, volume knob and switch seem to be of a good quality. The neck is very smooth and in reality looks much better then I saw in the video reviews, honestly it looks like it belongs to a much more expensive guitar. Also it is pretty thin so it's very comfortable to play fast aggressive riffs or solos. After playing on a Les Paul it feels like playing on another planet. The action is very low which is great and there is no fretbuzz. The black fretboard looks fantastic. I was a bit worried about playing without inlays because they give a good visual indication and help a lot but it actually didn't feel uncomfortable at all. The pickups are decent, the sound is very clear and focused. The guitar is pretty light and it feels very comfortable to play both standing and sitting. It also has a bevel on the neckjoint which makes reaching the higher frets extremely easy and comfortable.
The only issue that I've noticed is a scratch on the plastic cap (the one which covers the slot with wires) at the back of the guitar - but it's definitely not a big deal.
So the verdict is that it's an excellent instrument, very good quality, great price/value ratio.

Amazing guitar
I recently bought this guitar and I honestly could not be happier. The value for money is insane, it sounds amazing and it is absolutely beautiful. The reason I took one star off the quality is because mine came with a small scratch at the top of the fretboard. But other than that it is amazing. Highly recommended.

Perfect
Like everybody else said, great value for the money. Overall for my taste the sound is absolutely perfect and I actually really like the pickup selection. The guitar is very comfortable and I couldn't recommend it more. One minor flaw for me is that the body is not painted perfectly and that the binding is actually just paint, but for that price I couldn't ask for more.
