Review Summary

Nice guitar after a fair bit of effort. The body is in great shape. The original strings were in pretty bad shape with some corrosion on the tuners and frets. Whomever strung it also managed to kink the strings. The action is so high the guitar is unplayable out of the box. Some frets are uneven. After having it professionally setup including some fret cleanup, it plays really nicely and sounds great plugged in. If you find it on sale and don't mind putting $ into it, then it can be a nice addition to your collection. At full price you are better off going to your local guitar store and finding something already setup.
