For example, the synthetic Contents body (the enigmatic trs VM), a micro switch for a lot of sound combinations, and of course the essential and vibrato weird ... Pretty Japanese-made, perfect finish, quality hardware and honnte dtails kind that kill the head and mcaniques 4 +2 or its varnish mat (mine is electric blue) and superb brushed aluminum pickguard ...
