Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? High quality. No this isn't a more expensive ESP. But it's not a cheap LTD and you can "feel" the difference. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Only had it for a short time but it feels solid. General Your general opinion of this product. Very good overall. Compared to my snakebyte this guitar is right there and the snakebyte is amazing! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? A little heavier feeling than the snakebyte actually. Probably has some to to with the way the guitars are balanced. Neck is smooth and makes it easy to maneuver the fretboard. Controls are laid out nicely. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Modern "metal" sound. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Finish is different. Looks cool, and I like the satin feel compared to a glossy feel. Action How was the action out of the box? Action out of the box was actually pretty bad. Horrible fret buzz to. But running it through a setup fixed that!
