The product is definitely a metal monster, but the paint on it is very sensitive and the paint comes off at the slightest touch, also the switch button broke due to corrosion in 3 months, that's why my score for the quality of the materials is low. I upgraded to this guitar from the premium 827QMZ, the fingerboard was a bit thicker, but it's very comfortable to play. In summary, I wouldn't recommend it to users who are buying their first guitar, but it's a very nice guitar for professional and archivist guitarists.
