This guitar is made in Korea and it simply kicks ass.
Having seen no other reviews of it, (Probably due to the fact it isn't currently available in the U.S) I decided to contribute this one.
This is the new version of the original EDR 470 Improvements include EMG pickups in H-S-H configeration and the edition of a low pro trs, Locking strap buttons locking nut e.t.c need I go on!
First of all I would like to say that you just cant get a guitar of this quality and spec from any other manufacturer.
Body:Luthide the same material as joe satriani's aniversary edition chrome boy the shape is amazing. Many old school players will probably frown at this move away from the traditional wood body's but trust me this thing has one crazy amount of tone and it looks sweet as hell.
Neck: Rosewood, 22 frets All in all a well manufactured neck very fast with nice frets.
Pickups: Well I said it EMG's in H-S-H configeration sweet!

This guitar sounds truly amazing so versatile the tone and volume controls are excellent and really allow you to change your sound and the pickup selector swich allows a huge variety of sounds ranging from jazz tright through to hard rock. Run this thing through an EQ pedal and you are in heaven!

Overall this is a kick ass guitar for the money it is so versatile and looks incredible. Due to the fact that the finish is unlaquered it chips slightly more easily than normal finishes but its worth it mine is Jewal blue and it looks fantastic!
