I would replace it if something happens to it. I love this thing. I have owned an Ibanez Jem and this guitar is much more versatile, and a fourth of the cost!

Sound
The sound is absolutely amazing. I have pushed my abilities to new heights with the sustainer pickup. I typically leave it on normal sustainer mode, but switch it over to the harmonic mode when soloing. It is an absolute thrill to play and it is my main stage guitar.

Features
The only reason I gave the guitar a 5 out of ten is that the hardware is really, really, really, cheap. The Floyd is a knock off and does not stay in tune. I went ahead and purchased a black original Floyd and all other hardware. Now the guitar is smoking hot. I also got bored with the black finish, so I went ahead and applied a professional decal for that airbrushed look and finished it with nitrocellulose lacquer. Now it is simply amazing and I love it.

Ease of Use
Once you get the hang of the switches and how easy to use they are, it is hard to play another guitar without the sustainer. It's quite addictive.

Quality
The finish is (or should I say was) flawless. Like I said, I have a knack for customizing my guitars. By by warranty but it's worth it. The hardware is on the 7th layer of sucking, but I changed it out. Excellent guitar, but I strongly recommend upgrading the hardware. The pickups are perfect.

Value read more
For the price, you are getting a stage quality guitar. I am actually going to purchase another (and of course customize it) as a reliable backup for my performances.

Manufacturer Support
Can't comment since I have no issues with the guitar, hence no need to contact support.

The Wow Factor
The chicks dig it and the guitar nuts love the sound. What more can I say?
