"honest sg for the buck"

Feature:
standard everything, nice doccumentations with case and guitar, making on headstock, but just great, standard sg equip.

Quality:
no problems, but for almost 3 grand it better be right

Value:
a great value if it is what you like, or just to collect. plays as well as it looks!

Desirability:
i have 6 guitars in my collection that are about the same in appeal to me. the others are a true '61 sg, a '79 iceman, replica rhandy rhodes flying v, a '67 strat, this guitar, but my altime favorit would be my ibanez DMM1 daron malakian limited edition iceman with custom graphix by none other than vartan malakian.

Sound:
the sound is great, the only ploblem is the tremalo bar tends to set loosely in the tail. also loses tune faster than i think it should.

Ease of Use:
its like the guitar can read your soul. for me, the fret hight and spacing is perfect, it is very light for a solidbody, and the neck in widerer not too wide, and thin.

Support:
none

Overall:
im a collector and avid musicain, wouldnt play on stage, but nice to plink with.

"Hot."

Quality:
The hardest part to accept is that it will get dinged.

Ease of Use:
There is a slight learning curve.

Support:
This is an assumption as I never had a problem of any type.
