"bang for buck"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
so this is my 3rd wolfgang standard in less than a year. If i like a guitar, i want at least two. in this case i wanted the t.o.m version. if you don't mind not having a floyd, this is huge bang for buck. as i said in the northern lights review, these standards are almost as good as the specials. especially for the price. zZounds just ship guitars and do setups etc. Unfortunately these leave factory with qc issues. i won't nitpick here, but one needs to expect this. prs se guitars are the olny guitars that come from asia without issues. just my opinon. as far as these tom evh's, they are on par with the floyd versions and GREAT GUITARS!!! for 629, its alota guitar. but, there's room for upgrades. Bridge and tuners in paticular. pots seem fine, pickups are great. other than a few qc issues, i am very happy with purchase. and you can't beat zZounds!!!
