The brown truck dropped off a new Hanson Firenze T-90 guitar today. I would say it's a good guitar for the money, but I have spent a lot more on some guitars that I don't think had the tone, playability, and build quality as this one. Sounds like a good Tele in the bridge position but not ice picky like some. Bridge + neck (P90) has a unique tone that's hard to describe (a deep tone with a little sparkle?). Changing from the bridge to the neck makes for a big volume increase. I plan to lower the P90 tomorrow to try to match output with bridge as close as possible. The P90 alone is darker than most but very smooth. It has an ash body with a curly maple top. The finish is near perfect. The maple neck is a fat "C" with tinted finish and nicely finished frets with smooth ends. The nut is cut right with no binding in the fret slots. Pots and 3-way switch work smoothly. Tuners are smooth and easy to turn. Hard to believe you can get this much guitar for so little $$.

Really cool! I have always loved the idea of P-90 neck & Tele bridge combination. Something tells me I'm not alone here, too...Mr. Ambel??
