Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
Well, had a lot of "neck-dive", and the strap button out of the "horn" (neck area NOT rear of body) fell out within 10 minutes of playing! Luckily, I had my hand on the neck and caught it before it hit the floor.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
Haven't had it long enough to tell, but I assume it will be just fine.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
Really nice guitar overall. Had some issues, made some adjustments, bet WELL worth the money! I couldn't afford the Gibson, and for the price difference, and the DiMarzios, not sure I would spend the money for the Gibson. Maybe if I was a rock star...
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
I relocated the strap button, and got rid of the "neck dive", it plays wonderfully! Not as heavy as I expected, very fast, neck is really smoooooooth!
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
With the DiMarzios, this thing screams! Great crunch, crisp highs, and sustain for days! More sustain than I know what to do with!
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
No issues there. Looks great!
Action
How was the action out of the box?
Too high, had some fret buzz, had to sand a few frets down, and adjust the neck a bit. Now, it is awesome!
