I kicked around the possibility of buying this guitar for a few weeks and when I finally pulled the trigger on it I was amazed at how perfect it really is, I know quality instruments come out of Korea they have been in the industry for over 30 years now and have gained a reputation but to be clear, this guitar is equal in quality and standard to my Paul Reed Smith 408 which is imo the most pleasurable instrument I've ever played and the way it looks in person is astonishing, the only way I can explain it is beautiful in a very dark and ominous way, and this thing plays like a dream. It's more than capable of pumping out any genre of music but when you pick up this beast of a guitar and slide your hand down it's satin set thru neck it's going to compel you to do two things, crank up the gain and shred.

Musical Background:

I've played guitar for almost 6 years, I've messed with drums and piano but mainly guitar and I jam at home.

Musical Style:

Heavy Metal and blues
