"Excellent guitar (once the setup is corrected)"

I would definitely say that this product will keep me satisfied. This is not my primary guitar, but it works perfectly in those situations that require a tremelo. I would definitely buy this guitar again.
Sound
I like the feel and the sound of the guitar. The tuning holds well when using the bar. Would prefer active pickups, but these hold up nicely.
Features
I like the setup of the guitar. The bar was awkward at first, but I'm getting used to it. The floating bridge was tough for palm-muting, too, but that was a familiarity issue, not a problem with the guitar.
Ease of Use
Very playable guitar. Strap placement is odd, but that's expected with the body-style.
Quality
This was a frustration point for me. I had to bring the guitar to a technician upon receipt of the instrument, as the strings were buzzing on the upper frets. Part of this issue turned out to be a defect with the model of guitar, but could have been dealt with prior to shipping. The downside of buying a guitar online, I guess. The upside is that, once the defect was dealt with, the guitar has been a blast to play!
Value
For the price, I'm very impressed with the quality of the instrument and the hardware. I expected to pay significantly more for a guitar of this caliber, so I've been quite happy with it.
Manufacturer Support
The tech I used to fix the guitar was a certified Jackson tech, so I didn't have to play middle-man. Based on the fact that it was successfully repaired, I believe the support to be excellent.
The Wow Factor
I like the body design. Flashy, but not hideously dated. I bought it specifically to have a guitar with a Floyd Rose, so it absolutely meets my needs.

This guitar is a rocking machine. It has a licensed Floyd Rose of Jackson which increased its value. Nice features and shape. You can not expect a better rocking sound in this price. Just a little problem in the upper frets where the E and A string is buzzing badly. You can fix this problem after a professional setup. I think this is a problem because it's not made by USA.
I Get an excellent manufacturer support to fix the buzzing problem. The sexy shape of this guitar creates an extra value. I can pay a little-bit for this guitar for the Floyd Rose and the gig bag. it has the big Wow factor for its shape and metal sound. Mind it, this guitar is made for hard rock and metal. If you are playing metal and wish to buy a second guitar you must go with this guitar.
