[Chad]

Yes please

 

[PunkKitty]

Not bad

 

[Aahzz]

Not even a little.

 

[DinoMikeSr]

I like it a lot just not 4 grand worth.

 

[dodgechargerfan]

I wouldn’t say no to that, but I’d probably change the knobs real quick.

 

[Flamencology]

Not bad.

Needs singlecoils, obviously.

The block inlays are more far less tolerable than most. But that’s still an obvious mistake.

Fucks occasionally when someone’s drunk and feels lonely.

 

[Honkridge]

I don't dislike anything except the pickguard

[MonkeyZero]

It's the opposite of most guitars for me. I hate everything except the headstock. It's like a clinic on bad decision making in guitar design.

 

[Chicken Man]

I would have to click with it on sounds/feel, but I'm on board.

 

[Pine Apple Slim]

No thankie

 

[LittleSnakes]

Pretty cool but not something I’d play

 

[jp_nyc]

It looks pretty cool. But I could spend a lot less money to get a Gibson that would weigh less.

 

[Denverdave]

I don't mind it overall, but I not crazy about that vibrato system.

 

[jelloman]

I like the concept of reclaimed wood, but not the end product...

 

[Knox in Box]

I like it, but in a used guitar shop old junk kinda way. Not 4k dollars new way.

 

[bsman]

I don't mind it overall, but I not crazy about that vibrato system.

Even if the Vibrato is pretty nonfunctional, it should help reduce the tendency for neck-drop?

 

[Gorgon90]

I'd try it but looks like it would have the same neck heaviness my old Yamaha SG had which ended up being the reason I sold it.
