Solid Guitar with Great Build Quality
Anton T.S. 21.10.2024
Overall, it’s a solid instrument with no major drawbacks. The paint job is well done, and the body and neck feel and look great—no issues there. The neck relief was perfect out of the box. The frets came level and polished, and the intonation was spot-on. It holds tuning very well, even when using the tremolo arm. The only adjustment I made was lowering the action to 1.5mm and 1.25mm, and there’s been no fret buzz.
However, the knobs feel a bit cheap, and the volume pot is stiffer than I’d like. The push-pull switch for coil-splitting is also very hard to pull.

The guitar is on the heavier side for a strat, but it feels sturdy.

In conclusion, I’m very happy with my purchase. The quality of the body, neck, frets, and overall setup is top-notch. A truly enjoyable guitar to play.

Great modding platform
Theliraan 15.05.2026
Pros:
- Nice neck with ok-ish fretwork
- Locking tuners.
- Promising bridge.
- Neck set and body curve are good.

Cons:
- Very noisy and boring ISOLA pickups. Donno where are HBZ as mentioned in the description. Even the humbucker is noisy as hell. 2/4 positions are dull.
- Too big screws in the saddles of the bridge: for modern guitar which should support palm mute it's a problem.

The best guitar I have ever played
DZ 22.05.2026
I've been playing guitar for 20 years, and this is the best instrument I've ever had in my hands, regardless of price.
The roasted maple neck and fretboard have a beautiful smooth matte finish that makes playing an absolute pleasure. The single coils sound exactly like a Fender Strat, and the humbucker — even when split — is darker but never muddy.
The body contours are well thought out, giving easy access to the upper frets.
In short: looks, feels, plays and sounds amazing. For under €200 it's a complete no-brainer.
