The thin-U neck makes for a very comfortable playing experience all the way up the 24 XJ fret rosewood fingerboard.

| Quality |
| Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? |
| It feels solid, a set neck is always a plus, no real quality issues with mine other than being unbalanced. |
| Reliability |
| How has it stood up over time? |
| So far, so good. I don't expect any issues. |
| Overall |
| Your general opinion of this product. |
| Overall, it's not a horrible guitar, but it is unbalanced so while your playing you are also holding the neck from dropping to the floor which makes playing leads very difficult. |
| Playability and Feel |
| How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? |
| Again, other than being horribly neck-heavy it is a pretty decent guitar. |
| Tone |
| Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? |
| The only tone issue I have found is the muddy low end. The mids and highs really cut through and you can get some surprisingly good clean tones from the stock pickups. If you play heavier music or drop tunings I would definitely suggest swaping out the pickups. |
| Finish |
| How did the stain or paint job look? |
| Maybe from a distance it looks better but up close the finish is pretty bad. It looks nothing like a road worn guitar at all. |
| Action |
| How was the action out of the box? |
| Fairly good action from the factory. I still made a few adjustments to the bridge but mostly to suit my preference. |
