Published on 01/21/03 at 15:00I paid about $500 at Guitar Asylum and it was my 18th b-day present
The sound has to be the best part. It's a great guitar for metal and hard rock, and the construction is great. I havent had any cracks or blemishes on it and I've had it for about a year.
The bridge, (Down with Floyd Rose! Bring back Kahler!) I have so many tuning problems with this bridge, mainly because it's a floating tremolo (positioned above the tremelo block) and whenever I used the whammy bar it goes out of tune no matter how tight I lock the locknuts.
One of the toughest guitars I've ever played, it takes a beating and keeps going. Kinda heavy though, i prefer lighter guitars for more mobility, but on this guitar it's not a big problem.
If you can get past the many problems with the bridge it's the perfect guitar for hard rock and metal.
