that is complete bull, this is a X series guitar, they are not made in the usa, they are made in either korea or china. I have a ML X and its ok for a beginner guitar but the is a bit naff IMO

seriously dude.i checked the reviews on musicians friend, and for the money you pay, this is one of the greatest guitars possible to buy.at least a 9 out of 10. i second this. i read about 4 pages of reveiws on guitar center and they were all great. they all said this guitar was worth a lot more than it is. also this guitar is not heavy at all. i went to guitar center and played it and the first thing i thought was how light it was. u should try playing an epi les paul jr if u think this is heavy. but still it played rele fast and had a nice crunchy tone. but i do agree with the pickups, u will probably want to change them after a while if u plan on playing real metal.

I agree. The jr. was heavier than the VX. Thats what i traded in plus money to get this. I got the '07 metallic red VX. I kinda have to disagree on the pickups. You can get good sound if youre playing stuff like megadeth.

"This guitar can stand live playing up to a crowd of about 150", Any guitar can play to any size crowd, if it's not loud enough for a bigger venue then that's your amp's problem, nothing to with the guitar


agreed, the guitar has nothing to due with loudness, unless the volume nobs are broke and stuck, other wise its the amp or the sound tech is deaf

Guys, as a tip, don't trust reviews on sites like Guitarcenter and Musician's Friend. The reviewers often just recently purchased the instrument and posted "OMG I jus got dis geetar an it is teh besht geetar EVAR!" They do not give the instrument an unbiased review.

i'll second that. Its the first wise comment I see.
Anyway this guitar isnt suited for intermediate players and the pickups lack bright and output. This thing cant stay in tune while on 2 steps down and lower, even with proper set up, so forget about the slipknot stuff + is noisy with high distortions like the boss metalcore or metal muff. the string tension also tends to be a litlle stiff.

The neck feels amazing. A little thicker than I'm used to (Ibanez wizard II) but its very comfortable. The body, being basswood, is pretty light and the whole guitar is very well balanced.

I got this guitar from a guy i work with for $75 and thats a steal. All I had to do was make a couple solders because his kid took it apart and it was ready to go.

All in all this is a good guitar and i would give it a 7. I would gig with it as a switchout because my Ibanez RG4EXQM1 steals the show, but its still a great guitar.

My advice to someone thinking about getting one = go to guitar center, play it and form your own opinion.
