Glad to own one. Plays great, each and every note responds perfectly. The inverse polarity sounds are unique and useful over the entire fretboard due to the sophisticated neck pickup positioning. However, the Maestro vibrato allows for slightly shimmering effects only, or severe detuning will be caused. In this respect I am rather spoiled by my Floyd Rose system equipped guitars... Wanted to buy it as an investment, but it clearly is too fine to just leave it on the shelf, and so I will play it like all my other guitars, too.
