It is a good guitar for the price, but upon getting it I had to do a little setup (a lot of tuning, adjusting spring tension). This is also my first Floyd Rose guitar, so thank god for youtube tutorials :D After setting it up, tuning and playing and tuning and playing it for a few days, it does stay in tune even after really hammering down on the whammy bar. The pickups are a bit muddy and microphonic for my taste, but rolling off the volume just a tiny bit clears it up a bit. The neck is great, but the fret ends are a bit pokey. They don't scratch up your hand, but they definitely need some work in the near future. It is neck-heavy, but nothing too bad.
All in all it's a solid guitar with a really cool design. The price sets it's limits, you won't be getting the most well polished guitar, but for the price it's great. Has all the bells and whistles and it's a nice building platform (probably gonna change the electronics in the future).

i bought this guitar as a christmas present for myself and i wasn't dissapointed. right out of the box it was ready to play after a tuning. the only things i dont like are: it does need a little bit of setup but it is a cheap guitar so it should be expected. and the floyd rose bridge is a bit meh it wasn't setup completely right so that can be a factor but if you use it a bit it goes out of tune fast but if you wiggle it a bit it will go back in tune. the reason i bought it was because this is one of if not the cheapest floyd rose guitar money can buy that is both a good and a bad thing so i would maybe swap it out for an authentic floyd rose bridge if you are really serious.

This guitar allured me with its beauty, its glossy ivory colour and its shape.

After a not so quick setup, adjustments, Floyd rose spring change, string change, sanding polishing and waxing of the neck, the guitar is great.

Cons:
Floyd rose parts are not of the best quality (expected at this price range) the tuning stability is subpar unfortunately.

The neck was in need of sanding, I had read it on another review as well but i guess it was luck of the draw.

The guitar had only two small defects colour wise, unnoticeable really but they are there. The finish of the body looked a bit cloudy/scratchy.

Pros:
After a quick polish and wax of the body the colour is fine and glossy (but not perfect).

The pickups are good but you have to adjust the height accordingly and each pole piece alone, you can get good sound with patience.

The intonation and string was near perfect out of the box.

After sanding polishing and waxing the neck, polishing the frets, and oiling the fretboard it is very comfortable and lets you be quick and precise.

Thomann careful packaging and delivery was flawless, thanks Thomann!

Overall good guitar if you are patient and handy.
