How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? the neck is slim for a 50s style. The action sucked from the factory but after setting it up the way I like it it is great. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Pickups are HOT!. you have to crank way down on the volume to clean up the sound, but that could just be the pot. way heavyier than the pearly gates in my fender.

Action How was the action out of the box? ok but I like my strings low. I had to set it up. Intonation is perfect though. no tweeking needed there.
