Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
I'm hard on my guitars, and mine has had it's share of getting knocked around.
General
Your general opinion of this product.
Great Guitar, everywhere I take it, people are always commenting on its sound and appearance.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
I find it very easy to play. The action is perfect, and the neck is slimmer than my other guitars.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
Definitely Dark and smooth! The first time I plugged it in, the guys in the band all stopped and were amazed at its sound. I've also noticed how it sounds better as time goes by.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Everything about the guitar is beautiful. Excellent color. Someone always comments on how awesome it looks whenever I open the case
Action
How was the action out of the box?
Action out of the box was perfect. Only issue was the B string had a slight buzz down by the bridge. Took it to the local music store; they tweaked it a little and it's sounded great since.

As best I know. I've never learned to plly a guitar but it i on my adgenda. My father had an early 1960's Hummingbird Gibson that both he and Mother played and I never got tired of listening to it. When Dad died it went to my baby brother, whom some of you may have hear of. He diffently had a unique sound all his own. His name was Ed Yokley of the K.. Blues Band. This is one reason I want to learn to play and shy I'd like a Hummingbird.
