ESP LTD EC-1000 vs Fender Squier Stratocaster

I still need to get used to the action and set it up a bit better. The clean parts have some weird feedback. I think probably due to the fact that I n...

I have a few Squier Affinity Strats picked up this past year due to boredom stuck in house and based on these previous purchases, I feel this was a let down. I wanted a Candy-Apple Red Strat but did not want to pay up for the Classic Vibe since I planned on modding it. Also needed a small practice amp because my 25 yr old Rockman has seen better days. So

Not moderate level guitar that was thrown in 1/2 done shipping from store to get damaged in transit. For that purpose It comes boxed in separate shipping box

I'm gonna put the weight down here. All right. The weight is about uh, 3.6 kg and I'm going to put the price down here

Now I have to buy new strings... I guess this is just a case of getting what you pay for

Playing this is fun, but initially, for the acoustic you need to commit to calluses and discomfort.) The included amp is, again, buzzy and kind of "meh", but you are looking for the minimum here, not the concert package. I picked up some bluetooth connections, so I could not need the audio chord between the guitar and the amp. I added some headphones to spare my family from having to listen to me
