Maverick used to be fantastic quality and value.
my Maverick X1 still plays nice only gripes with it is
bl**dy heavy guitar
was a pain to tune below a tone and a half, would take ages for it to settle down, since tuning to just a tone down however that issue has gone away.
Looking for a new guitar this year not sure what yet though, was thinking of going back to ibanez but will see what money i can save up.
(plus cannot play currently, as i severed a tendon, waiting for movement to come back :()
