I bought this after seeing some online videos and I'm glad I did. Playing on a short scale is infinitely easier on the fingers than playing a standard scale base. Throw in 6 strings that use standard guitar tuning and you get some incredible tonal opportunities. The fact that you can play guitar chords with pretty much ease, is amazing. With that said, you are playing on a uniquely thin neck (its comparable to a standard guitar) that can be tricky playing the Low E string. The Low E string is virtually on the edge of the fret board. Do a fast pass and you really need to come straight down on the string. Any angle, and you will likely fret out. One downside worth noting is that the bridge has no height adjustment. I understand there are after market bridges that are much better, but it would have been nice to have that basic feature available. Interesting choice for pickup selection. One switch for each pickup. The forth switch is "Bass Strangle Circuit" takes some of the Low end out for smoother medium bass tone response. All in all, its very fun to play and inspiring, but you may need to adapt your play style a bit to accommodate it.
