Easily side by side with much more expensive guitars
Amazing finish, no need to setup, beautiful presentation, the pink is subtle and really pretty. Goes well with a black strap.
The fretboard is one of the best I've played. The compound radius makes it so high frets are more comfortable than normal fretboards on higher registers and it's a welcome modern feature. You have to try it to really understand, which I recommend. The gotoh tuners are solid and sturdy and fret curvature is barely noticeable but it stays in tune really well. Comes with 10s which really do complement the guitar and the chunkier (than fender strats) and breezy to play fretboard.
Pickups are also very good and well defined, it depends on the player and the type of sound you're going for, but it surely is a versatile guitar. They're very bright, rolling of highs even if you get to 2 on the tone knob works really well to get a fuller sound without getting muffled and maintaining the definition you'd want, on 1 it gets muffled and has a sudden curvature in the filter. If you know what you want you can do a lot with some eq, compressors and whatever you fancy in the sound design and pedalboard department.
It's a modern strat with a traditional-ish look, and its value is more than the price tag. No need for more expensive japanese fenders. Plays everything you'd expect and more: math rock, stratier jazz, punk, prog. It is also a great platform for fx, weirder stuff and just plain ambient guitar.
I never write reviews but I just had to recommend FGN. Will try more models in the future.
