SC-Custom II FR Vintage Black : I don't know how they do it?

To give you a Floyd Rose 1000 tremolo bridge with Grover tuners for this kind of money is nuts. The shelf price of the bridge and tuners alone is equal to the price of the whole guitar. That's not all. This guitar plays like a dream. You can do a dive bomb with the trem and it stays perfectly in tune. The action is incredible. The neck flies once setup properly. For those who are inclined to the Fender scale length you will feel right at home.

I know they saved some money on the matte black finish instead of some fancy flamed maple, but to get a guitar built to this level of perfection for this kind of money, they could have painted it with house paint and I would be happy.

Oddly enough you would have expected them to put some high gain pickups on here, but not so. Consequently, there is no super darkness in tones. They have just the right amount of sparkle, and yet give you a really nice overdriven distorted tones.

Get the FR bridge and guitar setup properly and the guitar stays in tune incredibly well. If anything, ever happened to this one, I would buy another in a heartbeat. Highly recommended.
