What a looker for price ...used on gigs ..p90s got a little squeely at volume and neck was a little bit unfinished .....but for price still a great guitar for a 1st/2nd guitar or a second guitar on stage ....good build quality ....i moved on to Fusion T and the fab fusion lll that ive used on all gigs since i got it

Disappointed

The instrument will be in tune on say a G chord, but when you switch for for example an A chord, it is out of tune. It is primarily the G string. I took it to my tech for set up, and he advise me the fret where not laid correctly. Also, the tuning gear are very cheap. They are not accurate and slip very easily. Even after set up, the same problems exists. I am very disappointed. I wish it played as good as it looks.

Only slightly disappointed

I wanted a chambered guitar with P90s on.

The pickups and chambered body are brilliant.

The neck finish really lets the guitar down.

Its seems that someone has painted the fret board with

MATT BLACK PAINT,,,, WHY.. It should have been left natural.

Its the same stuff that is inside the chambered body..

Other than that.. dumped the rubbish string trees, a change of nut to a Tusq and new Gotoh tuners, a set of 10 to 46 stings instead of the girlie nines and I have a good guitar..

Great guitar (if you're a Luthier!)

I use my guitars at home, in my studio and also the occasional live show.

Like others in these reviews, the neck and frets on my guitar were appalling. I've worked on guitars for 20yrs and couldn't get this neck right after weeks of effort. I couldn't return the guitar as I live in Australia and it would've cost more than it's worth to ship it back.

Eventually I gave up and bought a new Chinese made Tele neck from Ebay, fitted it, and within 1hr the guitar was playing beautifully.

It's now a really excellent guitar and the Wilkinson Alnico P90 pickups are superb.
