The single-cut, offset body w/Bigsby is well-balanced, solid and stays in-tune (just stretch the strings first). A man's guitar. The blue sparkle finish is even more impressive 'in-person.' The Diamond Alnico Plus Gold Foil mesh grill humbuckers look aggressive-yet-elegant; they also stay versatile and articulate whether full or tapped. Same pups, BTW as the (soon-to-be legendary) Schecter Omen-6! So, heavy metal DNA + rockabilly vibe = a unique Deftones-meets-Horton Heat sound straight-out-the-box. Still experimenting, but so far: Schecter's Solo-6B sounds like no other guitar I've played 'cept the Ibanez Artist w/Super 80s - CRANKED!
