When I was around 13-14 I saw a red Gretch (hollow body) and decide right there that it was going to be mine...that didn't happen, instead I recieved 2 drumsticks and I don't mean "chicken"...lol
All joking aside I got this for my kid thinking it would be perfect 4 him...now, he plays metal, and I had 0 idea about it being good 4 him or not...he was "glad" to get it, and say's it has been good for "playing something else".
The quality of the different parts is undisputibal quality, wonderful little blues/rock machine, if I didn't have my strat, I would have bought it for myself, my god ppl it's a Gretch, it is a nice little guitar and for the price it's a good "first" for anyone...
