I play many types of styles. This axxe fits my needs well. I'm presently playing through a Fender Amp without effects. This axxe sounds as good as any $1,000+ guitar. I don't like the rotary button I will repace it with a toggle A.S.A.P. Plays clean well, and with the preamp turned up it screams.
Action, Fit, & Finish

The guitar was set up well outa the gate. However, the lower 2 strings did buzz just a tad too much for my liking. So I raised them up just a bit. The fit and finish is superb. The top just jumps right out at you. For the money this guitar is a steal. The overall fit and finish is of exellent quality.

I dunno, just recieved it. However, in my honest opinion this guitar will last for years. Based on what I have played and owned in the last 30 years of playing. The construction is excellent and the hardware looks well chromed.

Here is where things get better. Steve and Frank of Steves guitar were wonderful to deal with. Were concerned about the transaction, and were extremely helpful. The shipping time was unbelievable and I couldn't have been happier.

Dillions are the deal of the century. Run, don't walk to your nearest dealer and make your purchase soon. Before someone wakes up and changes the prices. The guitar is beautiful it plays well, what are you waiting for?
