A Great Guitar

If you want a "real-deal" quality ax but don't care to shell out well over a grand to have one then look no further than this guitar. My guitar instructor with about forty years playing time, and believe me doesn't impress easily, was really blown away when he saw and played this Fender FMT. He likes his LP and also fools around on an expensive American Strat but told me he puts this ax in the same league and to keep it for life. I plan to. It's simply beautiful to look at but holding it is even better. It's super light (7.00lbs) and with the carved back fits like a glove in the playing position. It will make you feel and sound like a better player. No joke...you've been reading alot of reviews on alot of models, now do yourself a big fat favor and click "BUY NOW". You won't regret it.

Probably not worth the $700

OK, after reading all the reviews I was really excited to get this guitar. I have a Gibson Les Paul Classic (2001) and I was looking for a backup guitar. The first issue that I have with this guitar is that it's neck heavy, at least with the straps that I use. So, you spend all of your time holding the guitar in place. Next, I was very unimpressed with the gain/output of the pickups. Granted, I'm comparing it to my Les Paul, but I have much cheaper guitars that sound just as good or better. Don't get me wrong, it's a very nice looking guitar. But, it's almost to nice if you want to play it. One of the reviews said delicate, and I would definitely agree. Bottom line, it seems to be very much like a Schecter or something along that line. Just my opinion.

I've had it 2 days, and I'm sending it back.

I have played this lightweight guitar four years and cannot say enough about it. You must want the thinline neck. You must want jumbo frets. It's best you not beat this instrument up, because it is on the delicate side. Mine came from the Korg factory in Korea, I was told. Easiest barre chord neck in the world, but know string space is thin. I play country swing. I know nothing about rock or distorted metal. Very pretty. Very easy on the back when standing.

Beautiful....sound and looks

This guitar is beautiful and, at least the one I got, there are no flaws.

Moving on to the more important stuff...this guitar sounds amazing, and with the coil tap, there is a vast array of tones that you can get out of it. The Neck is very comfortable for me, you'd have to feel it for yourself to make that determination. The hardware is also sweet looking, especially on the Amber model (mine).

The only fault I found with the entire guitar is the 3-way pick-up switch is loose. I'm not talking about it being mounted loose, it is mounted fine, the actual toggle switch arm is loose. I'm going to have to replace it with a better quality switch.

The Duncan's sound great to me, and the coil tap feature works well, that is, the pull-out switch feels very sturdy and of a quality build.

incredible guitar

I've owned this guitar for the better part of 4 years, and it still plays like it's brand new. It's extremely lightweight compared to other Teles (any tele owner will gladly appreciate this). The neck is thin enough to where your hands simply glide up and down the fret board. The string play is very light and it's very easy to get some fast riffing going. The tone is great and stays in tune like a champ; the harmonics even with the stock pickups can be sick if you have the right distortion. If you have the money, I would definitely recommend this beast to beginners and experts alike.
