    Thanks for all the pictures, that was real cool of you to take the time to share.
    Yeah the frets on the Demmelition are definately wider, almost twice the size

        Now that you'v had time to mess with it, what do you think? Does it sustain well?
        Any QC problems, like fit and finish?

          The sustain is really really good, better than my KV2 even I think. Dno why, maybe it's the pickups.
          As for action & setup, I put some .09 strings on it an tuned it to E but I have some fret buzz even when the truss rod is completely loose. I did remove 1 string of the floyd rose (same as my KV2 was in E) so it has 3 now but I guess I'll have to set it up again with 4 springs to get more tension on the neck.
          That's the only problem I have with it now and I've played it for about 8h. I prefer the jumbo frets, they're easier to play with I think and except for the slightly thicker neck than my KV2 it plays just as good & smooth

                It's white so I'd say painted
                Check the pictures in the link to photobucket.

                  That's awesome that it is working out for you! Atleast you didnt have to adjust too much w/ your style etc...
                  No problem with it huh? That is also good to hear. I don't think that adding a spring will help your neck out. Try gently pushing on the back of the neck right behind the locking nut. You might be able to get the truss rod to move a little more so you can get more adjustment.
                  Also considering it is brand new and also setup for a lower tuning, it may require some adjusting or break in time to be ok.
                  If that's the only problem then I'd say you got a damn good guitar. I am very seriously considering getting one for myself, and I really appreciate your time answering my questions and posting pictures. I was very helpful.

                  Now only to decide what color... Initially I wanted a whit one, but I found some great shots of the Black/Silver bevel, and the Red/Black bevel colors.
                  I like them all really, but I may just get the White one after all. White & Black are my favorite colors for guitars. I'd get the Black one in a heartbeat, if it had White bevels instead of silver.
                  That Black/Silver combo reminds me of a Dean Dimebag sig, and I'm not too fond of Dean lol!!

                  Thanks again brother!
