maybe you can trade your PRS + $25 for one.

 

[Denverdave]

Too many switches. I'm not that smart - so no thanks...

 

[Mark Wein]

I'm not into playing Jaguars and Jazzmasters very much, but thats a nice one.

 

[Eminence_Front]

ACK..

Too Many buttons

Volume + Tone = Win

volume + Tone + a bunch of switches = Too many buttons. It looks like a guitar hero controller.

 

[FMC+]

It may suck as a player, and it definitely has way too many knobs and switches for my tastes, but I really dig the whole George Jetson/futuristic look and vibe of the Fender offsets. That's really nice for a 40+ year old guitar . . . . Strikes me as a decent buy too, but maybe that price reflects the absence of a collector's market for these.

 

[Phil513]

Are those trems any good?

 

[JModius1972]

Don't dig it.

 

[parrotheada1a]

Not my cuppa either.

As long as you don't mind going out of tune every time you touch the guitar, they are fine.

not an issue if you use heavy gauge flatwound strings. if you use roundwound 10s, then you'll have problems.
