They are good if you are a beginner, I own a Academy Electric Guitar.
Got the fender-like guitar, and a 15-Watt Amplifier.
If you aren't a beginner, I suggest that you DON'T buy it, because I'm getting rid of it because of its horrible sounds when I play, the AMP is horrible when you start to get better at it.
Because you know how it's sopposed to sound like, but won't get the right sound out.
