Decent features. I wanted one without a locking tremolo as I am constantly changing my tuning. Pickups aren`t all that bad, but compared to a Dimarzio or EMG one can see the differences, but in saying that these AH3 and AH4`s cxan deliver a solid distorted sound.
The mahogany body really gives this guitar a rich tone.

Sound : 7
I play this through a GT6 into a Tech 21 PE 60. Aftr a bit of tweaking to the GT6 I can get any distorted sound I want. Very rich bottom end with this settup and I find the Piezio`s very clear, but I have to roll off on the volume in order to achieve this clarity.

Action, Fit, & Finish : 6
Very good from stock. Wanted it just slightly lower, but have become acustom to the current setup.

Reliability/Durability : 7
So far so good

Over all this guitar has given me a broad palette of sounds with which I can explore many different sounds. I would buy again unless there were SA Prestiges that I could buy at the same price.

SoundsMusical.com don't buy from them their customer service people lie about delivery times and their treatment of customers is appalling they took more than 40days to express they were having difficulties and never told the truth about a deadline for delivery refusing to refund money immediately untill pressure was applied. No compensation was paid for the time they wasted and no appology was sent or expressed. I had to order elsewhere due to their incompitence.
