The only complaint is that is that it came with the strings routed incorrectly through the Bigsby. Nice weight and balance. If you like the feel of a Les Paul you will like this neck. My favorite thing about ESPs is the the frets. Expecialy how nice they round the ends. The big guys could take a page or two from the ESP builders standard book. I have never seen a guitar in this price range with this much attention to the quality of the frets work

Sound
The tone is great. Full frequency and pretty versatile.

Features
Just a nice piece. The Bigsby is a very nice touch.

Ease of Use
The pickup selector switch is in a starnge place. If you like to change picups on the fly you probably should consider something else.

Quality
In order to top the fit and finish you would have to spend twice as much money. Mine is a “blem”. The book match on the wood on the face of the guitar body could be better. Perhaps that is the reason that they considered mine a “Blem”. But all in all it is a beautiful instrument.

Value
Undoubtedly the best bang for the buck out there. Excellent build quality. I got a “blem” and I am still not sure what is blem about it. I would love to see what a perfect one looks like. It is not without flaws, but it a $600 guitar with gold hardware and a Bigsby. You cant have everything.… read more

The Wow Factor
Very sexy. The gold hardware and the Bisby, along with the unique (without being obtuse) bidy stylngs, give this axe a very old school meets new school vibe.
