I would give this two stars in terms of specs and overall performance, but toast points for amazing pricing!Metal is what you enter with this guitar, those two humbuckers are retarded but with the right tweaking, you can get the heads banging.The tremolo will be trouble without the tuning locks, but all this for 10k? This is the sweetest deal there is.PS. be careful with your onstage gimmicks; as you guess from the price, this isn't really built to take a lot of blows.
