I play fusion rock and this is the most awsome guitar! If you want to rock, do you need a neck pickup? NO! Did Allan Holdsworth need a neck pickup? NO! The Transtrem is the last word in bridges. Why don't all guitars have them? I'm thinking of slapping one on my acoustic!!

Perfect action, fit and finish. The trans trem takes some care, but worth the effort!
Reliability/Durability

I could run over this thing with my car and...well it wouldn't work anymore. But it's durable! Compact! No more poking the bass player with the headstock! The greatest thing about a Steinberger is that you don't need a backup. It is reliable!

I only wish I could permanantly fuse it to my body.
