"You can't really ask for more... for the price"

Feature:
24 frets, licensed floyd rose bridge, sharkfin inlays, killer V style, 2 humbuckers, volume and tone switch, pickup selector.. i think there's nothing else i need in a guitar.

Quality:
the finish is excellent, very well setup. only the swtiches were loose. had to tighten them up with a screwdriver.

Value:
its very cheap if you consider all the features it brings. and its made in japan. not from china which has worse product quality.

Desirability:
it's been my dream of owning one of these for a long time. it looks so cool when you play it.

Sound:
if you are a intermediate to advance player, you'll definitely want to change it's pickups. duncan designed stocks are just regular pickups. if you want a killer sound, better get stronger ones like EMGs, Seymour Duncan or DiMarzios. I put a DiMarzio X2N in the bridge position and my guitar roars like a beast now.

Ease of Use:
the neck plays so fast, i can now shred without any problems.. the only problem i found is the position of input jack, you can't play it seated or your connector will pinch your leg. but anyway... who would want to play a V seated?

Support:
never dealt with them yet

Overall:
Ive been playing metal for 8 years now. I play this guitar through a boss metal zone pedal to a peavey bandit 112 75watt solid state amp. the sound is so brutal, especially with the new pickup change. now im truly satisfied with the sound it provides.

" Buy this guitar! If you're looking for a new guitar that plays good, looks good, and has excellent performance, this is th"

Quality:
The guitar underwent obvious care when it was being made, it's of the highest quality, ofcourse it could be better, because nothing's perfect, it's not neck through but it still plays awsome!

Value:
This product is well worth the price listed, most guitars you see are overpriced, but this one could easily be worth more.

Desirability:
how is a king V not sexy?

Sound:
The sound from this guitar is excellent, and surpasses anything else i've ever used. Stage pressenc with this guitar would definitally be excellent as well. With a Marshall DFX amplifier it sounds completely stunning.

Ease of Use:
This guitar makes high speed playing easy, the fretboard is so smooth and doing pinch harmonics are easier then anything. This guitar just makes playing easier.

Overall:
I could easily use this product for years either until it breaks or until I get a custom model guitar for myself.
