I will be playing this guitar for the rest of my days, and so will my children, and their chilren, and so on, and so on!
Sound
The tone is just what I was looking for! The humbucker screams, and the pinch harmonics are incredible! You get that classic Strat feel with an 80's rock sound, and then being able to switch to that SRV rockin blues sound gives me the best of both worlds in one guitar. The clean tones are also incredible, and the sustain seems neverending.
Features
The Floyd Rose is made of the best quality. I have other guitars with a Floyd, but this one is by far a better made, high quality trem. After dive bombing, it returns to pitch perfectly. Awsome!
Ease of Use
This guitar is so easy to play, not difficult at all to find the sound your looking for.
Quality
Although it was MIM, you can't tell! The craftmanship is outstanding, the finish flawless, with minimal adjustments out of the box. Vertually ready to play when shipped.
Value
The price is right! Need I say more. You normally can't get this quality for under a grand!
Manufacturer Support
I haven't had to call for support. The guitar is in perfect condition.
The Wow Factor
If you love 80's rock, but want the feel and sound of a Strat. Then this is your guitar! I bought mine in midnight wine, and the color is even better than it looks in the pictures online. A deep dark hot red, with chrome hardware, reminds me of driving a classic muscle car!
