from the sound to the build quality, this could be the best guitar i ever played, and its really a true bargain at the price. i couldnt be happier with this amazing guitar.

Sound
truly amazing the sound this guitar produces. the dimebucker bridge pickup has such a thick chunk on the low strings and its just beautiful on the high strings, such clarity it really screams and on the clean channel its just so clean with very little noise, really amazing, it just blew me away. the dime time neck pickup is really smooth and bluesy with overdrive or clean, nice and buttery.

Features
a floyd rose original which personally is my favorite floyd is so great for bends and divebombs and the best for whammy squeels. the pickups rock. also the case is super sturdy and perfectly molded for this guitar. the case is really heavy though, it probably weighs 20 to 25 pounds.

Ease of Use
probably the easiest guitar i ever played. the action was perfect, and its so balanced, it felt perfect to me.

Quality
the set neck design is flawlessly made, its a digital design is done so well it looks like it was hand painted. its so solid and well made, made as well or better than any guitar i own. all the hardware is top notch. if i could i would rate it higher than 10 thats how well its made.

Value
the fact that you get this amazing guitar with a hardshell… read more case for just $799 is so amazing. i would of had no problem paying over a $1000 for this guitar. its so well made and has so many quality parts, it almost feels like a steal.

Manufacturer Support
zzounds.com rocks, they were so helpful and so informative. anything i needed they were there to help. the best online music store ever.

The Wow Factor
the appeal of this guitar is really in the eye of the beholder. i think its so hot. the blades graffix are so mean looking, its so heavy metal. and the dean razorback in my opinion has the greatest headstock ever.
