I only had to wait 30 years for my dream guitar but it was so worth it. If Heavy metal is your thing and you're a fan of Kirk Hammett well then you will not be disappointed with this guitar. Once I started playing I just lost complete track of time. It's such an easy guitar to play and out of the box the setup was pretty much to my satisfaction. I did have to restring as I broke the high E when tuning but to be fair thats no biggie. I was going to put on a new set any way. I'm running through a hughs and Kettner TubeMeister deluxe 20 watt head into a 60 Watt hughs and Kettner cabinet with a pedal set up of KH wah, Revv G3 and a reverb and I'm very satisfied with the sound. Running this guitar through a clean channel is bright and full but still punchy due to the active bone breakers on the neck and bridge.
Pros: A beautifully constructed guitar, Flawless paint job and a dream to play
Cons: none that I can think of.
Conclusion: A great guitar for a very reasonable price.
