I bit for a Black Les Paul and a white strat copies.
To be perfectly honest, I paid $170 for both and they're both pretty surprisingly nice. I got a little ding on the neck pickup of the Les Paul copy, otherwise both are basically perfect.
The necks are perfect. No intonation problems, I literally tuned them and played them right out of the shipping packaging... and they were both extremely well packaged.
The finish on both instruments are top notch. The hardware is actually not bad either. Sure you "could" change out the tuners, the bridges or the pickups, but they are all serviceable.
all and all, these were a steal. Far better than any student guitars I've tried, and much better than the Epiphone Les Paul Jr. I purchased for my son. The Les Paul copy is so much better than the Ibenez copy I bought way back in early 80's. It plays like a dream! The output on the humbuckers are not as hot as my current Schecter, but it plays better.
Same as the Strat. I've never had a strat, but have played several through the years. The neck is perfect, not too thin, and the intonation was right on the money. It sounds like a strat. It looks fabulous. I paid $70 for this guitar...OMG!
I've had them both for a couple weeks now, they were cheap enough for wall hangers, but good enough as everyday players...good enough that I haven't picked up my Schecter for a couple weeks now
