Don’t know anything about them. They’ve been around since 1994. I think they’re like the Squier. A copy of the Fender Strat

I also have a Washburn with a Buzz Feiten tuning system. I got that in a sale for £350, down from over £500. Also an LAG Electro Acoustic. That’s sounds so bright you need sunglasses. That was expensive at £600. I still have my first guitar, a West Coast strat that cost me nothing. Sounds great.
