Feature:
S1 switch is great - I think it gives you nine possible combos on the pickups(first is the same whether switch is up or down). So many features that I don't think you can get anything else that would make sense. I have the QMT version - just beautiful.
Quality:
Not a blemish on the entire guitar and I've looked it over. The raise '4th' pickup is normal. The 'noiseless' pickups seem to have it - every one I looked at in the store and the one I bought has it (and it's mentioned on all the sites). Don't worry about it.
Value:
It's not cheap - but worth every penny. Played this guitar for strangers in the store and it outshined everything else (playing both rock and blues) in it's price category. Sure - buy a Gibson for twice as much and you'll get better but for value - can't be beat.
Desirability:
I had to have it - I now own.
Sound:
Great sounding guitar - true Strat sound as you would expect and sustain lasts forever once it's set up.
Support:
Haven't had to contact. Heard they are sometimes difficult to get ahold of but I haven't tried. Only scoring a 9 as I hate to bring down the score when the guitar is so great.
Overall:
Best value and greatest looks out there, IMHO. I got the QMT finish - no pick guard to distract on the face. Maybe too nice to gig with every night but for that weekend job, it fits great.

Feature:
I love the roller nut, the locking tuners, the trem. It's just a very easy guitar to deal with. I have 7 others and this immediately became my favorite.
Quality:
Really nice, but of course you pay for it.
Value:
Sure it could be cheaper, but then it would probably feel cheaper.
Sound:
Sounds great. Unfortunately I'm a noob so can only scratch the surface of what this guitar can do.
Ease of Use:
Great neck, good setup.
Support:
NA
Overall:
If I ever even THINK of parting with this guitar someone slap me. I'll probably take it to the grave with me. I got the Montego black and wasn't too crazy about the gold pickguard so went with a white 3-ply. I like it much better, but I suppose a lot of people would like the gold better. It was the only mod I made, or will ever make.
