Amarok-7 BKBL Flame Burst : This thing is literally perfect.

Got it for a friend, and tried it out.

I am to this day amazed that for this price you can buy an instrument that is this well made.

It is a very good package of features, it looks nice, it sounds GREAT (if you're in the market for classical highgain stuff - this thing does wonders with its' mid-range passive EMGs).

I didn't expect to like these pickups as much as I did. Sure they're not Fishmans, but they're not trying to be - this is more of a traditional metal guitar, think Seymour Duncan's HotRod set, ToneZone, etc. Versatile, responsive, not starting a riot, but not pulling punches as well.

It came out the box set up and flawless.

It is well balanced and ergonomic enough for it to not be an issue. The neck is nice, the finish is nice.

I honestly have not a single critique of this instrument. Ok, maybe it's not the most visually aspiring guitar in its' shape or colour, but OH COME ON, it's a matter of taste. I personally don't like black guitars, and this one came more like... blue-ish. And it's amazing.

And for 400-smth euro you can't really go wrong buying an Amarok.

Unless you specifically want something that it's not.
