Yo, just a new guitar I thought I could put up on the gear review, if it's all good anywho 
How much did you purchase this item for? £339
Where did you purchase this item? Imuso
Is this item new or used? New
Features: 22 fretted, single-coil Seymour Duncan pickup and humbucker pickup, available in 3 colours, nice cutaway, no whammy bar.
Construction: Firm and sturdy, responds well to even the roughetst treatment; finish slightly shows up marks but is fine if taken care of, an excellent cutaway design that's quite strong as well. Very well balanced, thus easy to play thse higher notes. The strings are also built very well to bend, and are designed to not go out of tune easily, which is always useful!
Sound: A very nice clear tone, similar in type to the Fender Telecaster. Pure and very singy, the warmer tone from using the humbucker sounds lovely as well, though the humbucker alone sounds slightly isolated, but nice nevertheless. Not a very long-lasting tone, which was a bit of a disappointment
Ease of Use: Very simple, though my one complaint is the three knobs have no writing on them for directions. Still, trial and error will get you through!
Reliability: Very good indeed
Overall: Nice looking guitar; perhaps a little bit hampered by the short tone. Otherwise a nice guitar, htough predominantely I look on this as my second guitar. 8/10
Experience Level: Hmm...this is new! I've been playing guitar for a little over two years now

Look out on a Summer's day, with eyes that know the darkness in my soul...
