My second experience of the classic vibe series (my first was an Indonesian 60s Telecaster custom), and I'm not disappointed. It has the classic Strat sound and feel, and compares well with the MIM models.

Incredible quality for the price. Fast neck, decent hardware, the only change I needed to make was to fit brass compensated saddles (I also changed the control plate for a pre-wired one with full size pots and a 4-way switch, but that was just me).
