TBH, I was impressed with the monoprice indio a month ago (for $130) from them. Had remorse after ordering and happy I was to late to stop delivery. Heavy as heck, but plays well right out of the box. Crossing my fingers on this.

1st thing on a strat setup is to get the tremolo balanced. This is so tight (intentionally?) that it's basically a hard tail unless you want to spend time to fix. I have no interest in the trem for this and decided to go on.
Action is atrocious. Nearly 1/8th inch on the 8th fret, but I can lower that once I get the excessive bow out of the neck with a truss rod adjustment.
The tuners seem to be holding tune so far but it's early
The nut needs a bit of tweaking with some tiny files, which I'll get to the 1st time I restring it (along with oiling the neck that is really dry).
I could take this to my luthier but I'd spend as much money as it cost me. I'll do what it needs myself (less the tremolo thing) and it will perform well enough for its intended purpose: a guitar in the man cave in plain sight that will entice me to pick up and practice with.
I think it will serve my needs, but if anyone expects this to be playable out of the box, that ain't going to happen. I would not give this to any kid wanting to learn until I finish my basic setup.
But hey, it's only $70 and a chance to hone your luthier skills.
