The Steinberger for an inexpensive guitar plays surprisingly good. Its biggest issue IMO was the fact that the volume knob was right up against the bridge pickup. My hand was constantly hitting it. So, I swapped the volume knob for a low profile kill switch, then moved the volume knob down to where the tone knob used to be. (pic below)

I also bought some ball bearings for the bridge tuners, but haven’t got around to installing them. The bridge tuners on the Steinberger are extremely stiff.
