I purchased it from the music shop in Bridgnorth Shropshire. I saw it on display, played it and bought it immediately. I paid £200.

It's ability to stay in tune, even after severe abuse. It's tonality and accuracy. It's balance. It's low action when the whammy bar has been taken off and extra tension appplied to the springs. The flowing un-encumbered movement from the lower to upper register. It's progressive rock sound.

The only limits to this guitar take it beyond what is expected. It is difficult to finger pick (because of the middle pick up). It's sound quality doesn't lend itself to warm tones.

It is solid, well made, very precise,extremely functional and practical, easy to play. Very responsive. Looks great.

This guitar is at it's best when playing legato syle phrases with a never ending feel to them. It thrives on rock, metal, thrash, it looks and feels great. Ideal for a beginner, and experienced serious guitarists. I have had mine for 12 months, and after playing for over 25 years I would say it is probably the best value for money guitar I have ever had.
