Long time player, very happy with this guitar. Came ready to go, plugged in and was extremely impressed, high quality...not a single blemish, absolutely perfect. The tone is spot on...loved every setting. If I had to say anything at all negative, the neck is a bit sticky, but it's a brand new finish...no problem. Strongly recommend zZounds, great service, fast shipping, arrived double boxed. I truly don't like ordering online, but the ability to select from 6 guitars is a fantastic service zZounds offers.
Musical Background:
