Beautiful guitar with ugly side.
This is with no doubt one of the prettiest guitars that I own at the moment, it fulfills room interior and shine among my other hanging guitars when looking from distance, but this beauty have an ugly side - poor build quality.
When paint and lacquer coating was applied a small particle of dust got painted along and now beautiful white deck have a spot with tiny, but black dust under lacquer that impossible to clean out. Other poor side - fretboard, it has so many strange white cracks on it, especially on 11th, 14-16th frets, doesn't look new and some frets have annoying buzz, so it surely should be taken to a instrument craftsman to fix buzzes. Also screws doesn't look new. I guess my guitar could be one which was returned and poorly refurbished and now I consider on returning it back unfortunately.
Despite poor guitar build quality, the sound of this guitar is just amazing, EMG pickups is the best part of this guitar. However I find volume and tone controls too easy to turn and 3-way humbuckers switcher is too loose as well.
