UnOrthodox Guitars Melody Maker Shape

Bought this beauty from their eBay store. I wanted to paste their own description here, but it would take up loads of space. I'll just give you the rundown.

These guitars look and feel handbuilt and cutom made, several luthiers comment on it (makes you feel good :). I would describe the woods it's made of, but I'm afraid I'd just run out of space. It's got many, that's for sure.

Melody maker shape, semi-hollow, ebony fingerboard, goth tuners, wraparound bridge, p90 in the neck and a Duncan in the bridge. Dual-centric volume pot, a switch for each pup (split/series/boost) and a pickup selector, oh and the jack. Everything feels well crafted.

Did I mention the guitar smells like wood? Man, that's great. Guitars should smell good.

It suits my playing style very well. The neck is not too slim nor too fat. A little narrow, but my fingers are comfortable.

I plug my guitar straight into B-52 LG-100A head with behringer 4x12 cab. I have an effects loop with mostly BOSS pedals on it, Compressor, Delay or Distortion (DS-1 or the Metal Zone), EQ; nothing too fancy.

The guitar is a little noisy on the P90 if pushed too hard/distorted. But it's very very good on the clean channel, and very good when combined with the Duncan (with and without distortion). Seymore Duncan is also good, very hot and distorts nicely.

Depending on which pickup you use. Full and twangy on p90, bright on SD and any combination with both (just use the pot to level them). I hardly ever use the EQ.

My only gripe is the Hum, you know the 60Hz one you get when you're not touch the guitar. I've taken it to the repair guy to get looked at, but he said it was a typical problem with the type of bridge and pickup (single coil). It's not a problem for me, I guess, but it would have been better without it.

Symore duncan was damaged during delivery and had to be repaired, I had the repair guy reset the action, too. The finish is very very good, there were only minor scratches near the bridge, but they're not visible unless you look for them. There finish itself isn't glossy, so the real wood color shows and I like it that way. The only inlays are the two dots at 12th fret.

My complaints:
The bridge, I'd have liked something different, a tunomatic, maybe.
The frets could have been smaller, but that's fixable
I would have liked the logo to be better, inlayed maybe. It isn't too impressive, looks like a sticker, really.
I wish the p90 wasn't a soap bar, there aren't too many replacements for those.
I have to put the strap around the headstock, otherwise the guitar is too far out and I can't reach very well, I wish they've brought the neck in a little bit, no worries.

It feels very reliable. I would probably bring a back-up anyway, at least until I replace the pickups with something else (that delivery damaged SD is still on my mind). But everything is built to last, the guitar feels very solid!

I've dealt with them once, and they seemed nice. Their ebay descriptions are very good and verbose, they're upfront with everything. As we say in eBay Feedaback speak: A++++++++, Will buy again!!!!

If the guitar b0rked or got stolen, I would cry. I would contact the store and ask them if they have any more for sale. Everyone likes this guitar, friends, family, luthiers, random people on the street. The U in UG could very well stand for Unique.
