well thats a good way to upset a world of people (literally) i have had my firebird 2 days and i reckon she is a keeper she plays well and sounds awesome, i am also a squier owner and theres a very similar trolling thread on the fender forum, where i defended squiers to the hilt with a number of other members.
sure your gonna get the odd bad apple, but my epi is built very well, with good quality wood, and components, if you were to change the pickups to the same as the gibson i am sure a blind man would not be able to tell the difference.
Seriously, dont knock it 'til you tried it
