The only problem which is common on many guitars with licensed floyd roses instead of real ones is they don't work very well.

It's playability is pretty much perfect as well, it sustains very nicely and is effortless to create natural/pinch harmonics that sustain for a long time. The guitar is in almost perfect condition with the only major damage being the small chip as pictured, would rate the condition 9/10 It has some really cool features as well that you won't find on many modern guitars, it has on/off switches for each pickup instead of a three way toggle switch which allows you to activate multiple pickups at once and create some really nice different sounding tones! It also has a coil splitter which splits the humbucker to a single coil sound. The guitar, although not made to any very high quality standards, is extremely versatile and plays as good as some $1500 guitars I own. By the mid-1990s, they were the single largest guitar manufacturer in the world! Because they build under contract for many famous brand names, more likely than not, you've already played one of their guitars.Up for sale is this incredibly rare 1980s Samick Super Strat in a beautiful purple and pink crackle finish! I don't know the make or where it was made as it does not come up online.
