This is my second Schecter guitar. Over the years I've heard how Schecter is not considered a "good guitar company" so I tried to avoid it at all cost, spending a lot of my money on Fender guitars. Boy was I wrong and missing out on these awesome guitars. This Nick Johnston model is far way better than any MIM Fender Stratocaster. One of my buddies bought a MIM Fender Strat recently and I played it for a few minutes, and man you can feel and hear the difference instantly. You can feel the cheapness on the Fender just by touching it. NJ strat is beautiful, the quality is top notch, it feels and plays great, the action is nice and low, the locking tuners (something the MIM Fender models dont have) do their job perfectly. I prefer this guitar over any MIM Fender Strat. If you are thinking of buying this guitar, go ahead and spend that extra $100, you won't regret it.
Musical Background:
I've been playing guitar for 10yrs. I mainly play at churches and small gigs.
Musical Style:
Christian, Blues, Jazz, Latin, Pop and Rock.
