Sorry you punk this guitar sucks ass and it broke after 4 days. Don’t say it’s light because that’s an excuse for the cheap Chinese interiors. The god damn plug ripped out after trying to unplug it. I don’t want to believe it’s your signature lineup of guitars because 80s rockers don’t make mistakes like these. The bridge is made of Velcro for shits sake.

Amazon was blowing these out for stupid cheap for a little while. The neck is really quite nice. The bridge pickup is too "hair metal" for jam band/bluesy stuff. With a set of old Gibson humbuckers (or pick your faves) it's got a nice tone to it. The Wilkinson tuners and bridge are solid and better than a lot of cheaper instruments (looking at you Squier Affinity) If you like flat necks and need a simple rock/punk/what have you guitar there's a lot to like.

@@GuitarMAXMusic I played Gibson and Seymour Duncan passives back in the 90's. Then I wasn't active in music for about 10 years, and when I came back I thought WTH Hetfield was one of my big heroes so why not try EMG(I tried a Jackson custom Dinky in Florida one time with 2 81's but the battery was almost dead) So I bought an Ibanez 7 string with 707's. It took some getting used to but once I adjusted to the feel I was hooked. Love the quiet operation and I think they sound very good clean (where some people complain about that). The trick with EMG is always using at least 18 volts to power, 9 volts is just enough to get them to work but they are underpowered, more volts solves the headroom/clarity issues some whine about. You can get a 24 volt battery pack for like 12 bucks on ebay that's perfect
