Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Absolutely smooth and precise playability...lets you play like a pro! Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? The tone was a perfect mix of everything: Bright, clean highs with amazing sustain. Amazing bottom end that had great clarity and a very well mixed mid tone that came through the signal like Heaven in my ears. Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth?
