The tone, the feel the whole package on this guitar is just AMAZING, the only complaint and the only reason why I was closed to return it, is that when I got it out of the box, it needed a very severe guitar setup, had to spend several bucks with a guitar tech here in Arizona, and after the setup, it turned into the best guitar I have ever had!
