I bought this guitar online at american musical supply.com. I played one at my local dealer and had to have one. Paid $640.

I really like like the look and design of these guitars. I got the quilted maple natural finish which makes the guitar if you ask me. The "point zero" tremolo is awesome too. Its almost impossible to knock this thing out of tune. Quality of materials and craftsmanship are excellent for a Korean made guitar.

My guitar was not set up properly when I got it. The bridge, bridge saddles, and action were all out of whack. Plus, the stock pickups are terrible. They're very noisy and dont have enough output. These are all things you can expect from almost any guitar that is not a custom shop though. I took out the stocks and put in a Duncan Dimebucker in the bridge position, a Duncan 1/4 pound in the middle, and a Duncan distortion in the neck position. I had a tech set up my action, tremolo and saddles. This guitar was kinda weak when I bought it, now its a madman.

Wizard neck is very thin and fast, its also the same neck you will find on prestige series Ibanez. Fretboard plays very well and has no visible flaws. Hardware is very nice.

I recommend one of these for a beginner, or if you are looking to customize a cool guitar on a tight budget. This is the only guitar I have ever bought that I thought was worth every penny.
