2021 Dean Vendetta XM Electric Guitar

This nearly-new guitar is a trade-in and I'm shocked by how good it is. It's not my style at all, but if you're someone looking for a hard rock or metal-flavored instrument (it's called a Vendetta, folks) on the cheap, why not start here?

Pros are -- clean-sounding pickups, lightweight, fast and comfortable neck, accurate fretting, and solid-wood (basswood?) body. Cons are -- it's cheap? It's not made from 100-year-air-dried Brazilian rosewood with unicorn-pelt hide glue?

All I had to do was adjust the setup and it was ready to roll.
