This is by far the most exceptional guitar that I have played in this price range, including any PRS and Fender doesn’t even come close. I’ve been a Strat man all my life but I can’t put this guitar down. The value here is well over $2400 and then some, this is unbelievable at $1299 not understanding how they can sell at only $1299 even my friends Gibson es 335 is no comparison to this guitar he’s shocked
