you get what you pay for. a cheap Korean guitar is hardly an upgrade from a shitty walmart guitar.

If you had half a brain, you would purchase a lower end fender with decent pick-ups and not focus on having a guitar that's a replica of a decent one... cause at the end of the day... it's not. And if you're not professional musician... what your guitar looks like doesn't matter in the slightest... nor does it overly even if you are.
