Always been a budget guitar with a nice set up person. I've put my hands on plenty of guitars that are amazing, but none of them ever were enough to justify the price tag. But going into my local guitar shop to buy strings recently I got a weird hair and asked to try an ultra... I've never felt so much joy holding a guitar! The neck is so comfortable you almost don't feel it, all those body contours are perfect, and you don't struggle to get any notes to sing! The tone is incredible with no hum. You can find great tones in every pickup setting and more with the s1 switch. The volume and tone knobs are perfect, never been encouraged to play with them so much. Tons of sustain. Trem works perfect(taking out is a little nerve racking cause you gotta be forceful, just put your other hand on the block and pull). Even the lightest touch of a note gets picked up and resonates. I know it's a novel but man; it's better than you'd expect. If you're looking for your "one", find somewhere to play one of these and you'll see what in talking about.
Musical Background:
14 years of guitar
Musical Style:
Blues, rock, reggae, hip-hop, pop. Mostly Hendrix, SRV, and John Mayer style
