Hello, I'm a newbie here and have been fooling around with guitars and electric bass for a few years. I have a Fender Strat with a Crate 30w amp and a Fender Squire bass with a 15w amp.

I just bought off E bay a Gitano electric guitar. I can not find any info on the net about it. I've found acoustics and acoustic/electric with the Gitano name.

I only paid $95.00 with shipping so I figure it can't be all that bad. It's got a solid mahogany body with a Floyd Rose bridge.

Anybody heard of this type guitar?

I can't find any info on their electric solid body guitars either.

When you receive it, make sure to post a review and some photos!

At such an inexpensive price it's probably hard to go wrong with the purchase.

It's not a strat style. It looks like this:

It sounds great but being solid mahogany it is heavy.

Looks like you got yourself a beautiful axe at a very good price, too.

It sure is cool looking. I hope you are happy with how it feels and sounds too.
