UTILIZATION
Its a strat, you get what you get. It is easy to get at the top frets and really gets a great sound simply, its a plug and play guitar, very much a standard in the guitar industry
SOUNDS
I really enjoy this guitar and I don't even like strats that much, its a very simple guitar to use. I've used it with a bunch of amps but mainly with a laney GH50L, it does great RHCP type sounds and I totally recommend it for that, it even does some ok distorted sounds, but the SSS configuration kind of screws it over there. The cleans and slightly OD'd tones are definitely my favorite thing, and it does great "bell" type tones with a AC15 and a great grind with more marshall style amps.
I feel like this really isn't meant for anything overly distorted though, so don't go buy it if you want to play anything over classic rock really. Unless you plan on changing pickups.
OVERALL OPINION
My least favorite thing about this guitar is by far the pickups, I find them too noisy and thats why I don't own single coil guitars anymore really minus a different strat. Other than that I found it to be a very well crafted good looking guitar, I think the action was a little high out of the box, but that was fixed easily and some people may like it higher. I think its a bit overpriced and I'd personally never buy it new, but overall its a great sounding guitar and I'd highly recommend it to people looking for cleans and lightly driven sounds.
