The guitar is very well made not only for its price level, but also compared to my other guitars, even 3 times more expensive. It has a crooked pickup switch, which does not limit the function, and the potentiometers sit on the varnish. There are a few spots of paint on the headstock, I did not find any other imperfections. It plays great as usual - a nice fast neck, a nice flat fingerboard, a low flat bridge. The tuners seem solid, I will not judge the tuning stability yet. The zero fret is straight, nicely cut out, of course plastic - I will replace it with Tusq XL. I would characterize the pickups as usable. The Black Aurora Burst color is matte, a little rough, beautiful in person, changes colors depending on the angle of illumination (from green to purple). Overall, the guitar is very nice, especially the wood. The zero fret, tuners, pickups, etc. can be replaced. I would buy it again.
