What is better Silvertone ss10 citation guitar or the Fender Starcaster Electric?
At that price the guitars are equally flawed and the decision is left to the individual's perspective. Personally, a starcaster would be my choice for a safe purchase. Silvertone is less known. Honestly, they're both decent.
Is their a super saiyan 10 Goku?
You might have seen pictures of him and heard people talking about him but he isn't real. Because goku doesn't go to another super saiyan level after ss4. But if the dragonball/ballz/ballgt people make another dragon ball thing then he might otherwise not. So the main point is that there is no such thing as ss10 goku. There is Barely a thing such as SS4. Dragon Ball was suppose to end with Z and the birth of Pan GT was an 'afterthought'. Super Saiyan 10 is commonly associated with Dragon Ball AF... AF was the cruelest Aprils Fools Joke EVER played.
