Published on 09/29/02 at 15:00I bought this at guitar center. I paid $550. I was looking for a good beater guitar. I own two Paul Reed Smiths. There are just some show where I don't want to bring them out too. Too much money involed in them. I thought I was going to buy a Jackson or an Ibanez but after playing this I was impressed, very impressed.
The guitar plays great. It stays in tune after much abuse, it sounds good and looks good also. It is not a Paul Reed smith but for $3000 less it is a hell of a good guitar. I was looking to spend around $1000 for a beater but this played and sounded as good as any guitar in that price range. I think it was a great buy.
There isn't much I dislike. The overall finsh is pretty good. A couple of Blems but big deal. The only thing I really don't care for is the hight of the bridge pickup from the body to the stings. There is alot of room between there. My pinkie takes a beating on that pickup. Thats the only thing a little weird,
The set neck is really nice. The quality is there. A couple of blemishes but no big deal. The hardware seems to be all to notch. It seems really solid.
For the money it is probibly the best guitar out there. I really like it. Like I said I have two Paul Reed Smiths and I needed a beater, and let me say it is one hell of a beater.
