Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
This guitar has it all.Playability is like none other guitar we have in our studio including our Ibanez RG 550, RG 652, PRS Core Custom 24, Les Paul Standard, Fender Am Strat,Tele.The list is a collection of amazing guitars and they all sound and play great, so whatmakes this guitar fit into this league of champions?This guitar doesn’t have Satch or anything written anywhere it’s just JS....so that’s coolThe neck is the smoothest and just the right balance with an asymmetrical carve.The 6105 frets are tall and thin...very much like the new Fender Pro Strats...The fretwork is smooth and crowned... as good as it gets.The guitar is very ergonomic and fairly light and not a problem doing a 2 hour gig.Sonically it’s neck pickup is a balanced and smooth with new harsh tones.The neck pickup sounds thick, rich and clear with a little bite ...really greatThe sustainiac adds a additional thickness with clarity.Build quality is Perfection.We highly recommend the investment in this world class instrumentAgain zZounds bends over backwards to help all of us musicians to find the gear that we love
