Pickups and Electronics are kinda blah on them, overall construction is pretty good though. I had the Sunburst and maple version, the biggest issue was the fretwork on mine. I did a full level and dress and that helped a lot.
With a some extra TLC put into a good setup they play ok, they don't have the heft or feel of a real USA Stringray but they're FAR superior to the old OLP stuff.
I think dropping a good upgrade MM pickup like the Aguilar MM4 would make a huge difference, the stock pickup is a kinda crummy ceramic and it's a bit nasal in spots.
