Feature:
This guitar came with SIT strings which I think suck. Right out of the box 30 minutes into playing broke the g string. I slaped a set of earnie balls on the guitar and no more problems. I think this guitar is light weight there fore it is not a burden to be have it hanging off your shoulder for hours. I do wish the guitar did have another tone knob just to spice up the sound a little more but really no big deal. Oh and the toggle switch is kinda in a bad spot sometimes while playing I will hit it switching pickups and not having any sound then watch people stare. I think the guitar has the best pickups and tuners money can buy.

Quality:
The product is made well. When I first got the guitar i was shocked to find that it was not made in America because of its beauty and structure. I beleave this guitar will ast forever and I dont plan on getting rid of it.

Value:
In my opinion I think this guitar is as good if not better than any Gibson Les Pauls. My brother had purchassed one several years back and I have always wanted one and now I finally got it.

Desirability:
The guitar is beautiful see thru green. I do wish I would have gotten the vintage black.

Sound:
This guitar has amazing sounds expecially with the emg pickups. I play lots of 90 and new age metal and even some 70 rock and it is able to produce great sound for bith eras of music. This guitar to me has the sound of a les paul but with a little more crunch whish is what i like when I play.

Ease of Use:
The guitars slim neck and jumbo frets allow for easy fast playing up and down the neck. Any body would be able to pick this guitar up plug it into any amp and sound good.

"A Metalmaniac's Dream."

Feature:
The features and pretty simple but they're some of the best quality you can get. Sperzel lockin' tuners Tonepro's bridge. Dual Humbucker set up. It's a metal guitar what more could you ask for?

Quality:
This guitar came to be ALMOST perfect. Everything was great expect the G string was too short so 30 minutes into playing it, the string liked shot out of it. It didn't snap it just like shot out of the tailpiece. I tried putting it back in but it was too short.

Value:
If you want an ideal metal guiat and you don't feel like bustin' the 1,000 dollar line don't look anywhere else

Desirability:
Sex Appeal? A ton of gorgeous abalone a beautiful flamed maple BLUE top. That screams sex to me.

Sound:
Well, I play all metal sub genres and some vintage hardcore and it sound great with them all. I have the See Thru Blue with EMG's and they're amazing. I've played some Gibson Studios and they just don't compare to the chunkyness of this guitar. Don't fall for name brand BS this guitar deff compares and exceeds them.

Ease of Use:
The neck on this guitar is AMAZING it's very comfortable and fast. I don't have huge hands and this is a breeze to play with it's slim neck, none of that stupid almost flat necks on Ibanezs

Support:
I haven't needed to talk to them. A short string isn't anything to complain about I was going to switch them out anyways

Overall:
If this guitar was stolen. I'd cry and go buy a new one
