"you'll want to play this one, not just for collecting"
i wouldn't replace it unless i hear something that sounds better and can afford it. it takes a little effort to get a humbuster sound out of it, it won't replace a les paul but this is a very good guitar. worth having.
Sound
i use a marshal mg stack and a crate, sometimes a digitech rp80 and get all the tones i want.
Features
the c neck plays itself, and the five way selection switch helps for a quick change to a lead riff.
Quality
had trouble out of the box, but the guys where i bought it were great and fixed.
Value
this is a very hot looking machime, it sounds great and hits the tones i want from a fender. less cash would be better, but it is worth the price.
Manufacturer Support
the problem i had was it wanted to fade out after playing for a while. the shop guys tried several times to find and correct the problem. they were cool about it and finally they hit the fade and the guitar has been great.
The Wow Factor
every body wants to touch it, play it and says it is great looking. we use for country, rock and blues so i guess they are right. it is a must have ax.
