Ascari™ GT-90 ???

Hello, just purchased a Ascari™ GT-90, love the guitar great build for the price feels like 09-46 stock strings, is that correct? Strings are unusually scratchy bending on frets is that normal? thanks for any help.

not sure on the Tributes , Americans come with 10-46's ..... never know how long it sat so I would throw some new strings then see what you got

thanks
