Well, the guitar isn't bad at all but there are a couple of aspects which need sorting out. Out of the box the guitar plays ok, fretwork is good, no sharp edges and no uneven frets. The neck feels good but it is not properly finished at the heel and feels a bit rough. There is no battery compartment so, you have to remove the backplate (cavity cover) to access the battery...now, why on earth would you do that? Of course the battery change doesn't happen every day but still. The input jack is in the wrong place; if you buy a guitar like that you will most probably play in the classical position and the jack will stick right out and in your leg. Needs a right angled jack to play comfortably. Again I think a more suitable place could have been found. The pick ups aren't bad but fairly quiet for an active system, I thought they would be hotter. The finish is really, really sattle....so it is basically a black guitar the reflective metal particles do not reflect really. The gig bag is cool and a very nice addition. Overall the guitar is good, price for specs; just difficult to understand why it has been released without sorting out those few design issues...a mystery! So, for the price it's a good deal and the instrument feels good, light and comfortable; just do not expect perfection. First time buying from Muziker and no complaints at all with the delivery process, so thanks for that. Take it easy and keep riffing away!
