Sound

I play Death metal and even with oryginal pickups guitar sounds realy enough crushy and powerfull.With EMG 89 guitar have medium sustain and rather sounds poor on clean,but certainly not the clean sound is moast important thing.I use Hughes&Kettner Attax 100 with two 12" Celestions.I use very heavy drive {as in a really Death metal}.Guitar has very bright sound {as i like}.There is no doubt that in every metal kind of music such guitar sounds REALLY GOOD.
Action, Fit, & Finish

The factory addjusting was really awfull.Routing and placing and laquer finishing of all elements is really proper.I play on that guitar over a year and i haven`t noticed any problems with tuners,bridge or neck. Neck is very comfortible,it gives me certain grip during the play.

There is one year warranty.I`m fitting addjusting by my local dealer.There was no need to repair it.The company made for me specially oryginal triangle markers on fingerboard-they are really friendly and helpfull.

I love it how it looks like with reverse headstock,but i think that it`s too heavy a little bit. Anyway, anytime, anywere i can be shure that guitar will do a good job.
