Shredding machine

Very high quality instrument. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

Straight from the box the action was ok, but I managed to get it really low (1 mm first string, 1,4 mm sixths string, on a 12 fret). Intonation is perfect, didn't need any adjustment (E standard tuning, 10-46 Elixir strings).

Neck pickup is with Sustaniac, that was the main reason to buy this guitar. I had few guitars with Sustaniac before, and had some issues in the past (some notes were not picked up by the magnet, for example), in this one it is fine. Bridge pickup is really hot, high output, but the sound is a bit dull. In general, I don't like the clean sound of this guitar at all, but I guess it is not really designed for clean sound. Distortion is perfect. Sound is clear, could really cut through the mix, well articulated, well defined.

The neck is smooth and fast, the frets are polished really well, the fretboard quality is amazing. It took some time to adjust right hand position to the shape of the body, but after a few days it feels natural (I own other guitars, mostly strat shape, so used to place my right hand a bit different)

In general, for rock and metal it is perfect, for clean and light crunch not so much (to my taste). So, if you looking for versatile instrument - this is not the case. If you're looking for rock/metal beast - this one is for you.
