Well, I got mine. I was pretty unhappy. The bag that holds the allan keys came open during transit. Seriously, how hard is it to close a fuckin zip lock bag? Like, how the fuck can that happen? So I have a few small marks. On the back and the bottom. You would have to look for them, but they are there. There are some other minor imperfections on the guitar, and especially the binding. The fret board. It doesn’t look great to me. This guitar is not anything like the description I had been reading here (that’s not a shot). I was expecting close to perfection. If I had the option to send it back I would. Sending it back isn't really an option for me (from Canada)...not really.
The guitar was unplayable out of the box. The high E was choking out too bad. The whole guitar was buzzing horribly.
After giving it a half-assed set up (tweaking the neck, the Floyd, and tuning it) I will say, the quality of the guitar does start to show, and the setup is not perfect. It’s about 75%. By the end of the week it should be 100%. After playing it for about an hour, it’s obvious its a great guitar. It’s certainly shred worthy. I expect I'm going to love it the more I play it.
I don't LOVE the EMG's. But I knew that before I bought it.
I think the guitar was "grumpy" from being shipped. It needs to chill. Get some love.
Still, I can’t help but be somewhat disappointed. I’m not sure what Musiciansfriend would do for me, if anything. I certainly can’t see myself buying another guitar from there.
