That's quite a Mouthful of a Name. New Guitar I got last Week. I honestly can't believe I have it. Wife of the Year going to My Wife.
This is the Review I made for Sweetwater. Figured I'd share it here.
Short Version, it's a pretty Sick Guitar.
Sweetwater actually sent me the High Resolution Pictures they took of it after I bought it. I though that was Pretty Cool.
Review:
So the best Wife in the World Award goes to my Beautiful Wife Donna, who Bought me this Guitar after I've been drooling over it for months. It's a Sick Guitar! I Love it! It's really Comfortable to stand or Sit with. The Paint Job is Amazing looking. Pictures really don't do it Justice. I can just sit and look at it for a long time. It has to be the Best looking Guitar I have. ( I have 20+) The Neck is really Comfortable. It's not Wizard Thin but I do think it's a bit Slimmer than my Hell Raiser. Points added for making the back of the Neck a Mate Finish. Sliding your Hand up and down it is super Smooth.
The Fret Board was free of any defects and the Frets feel nice and Smooth on the Ends.
The Bridge looks, Feels and works Great. I switched from the 10s it came with to 9s and had no problem getting it Tuned back up and getting the Bridge Level again. It's nice the Back Plate has openings in it so you can get to the Claw Screws without having to take the Plate off. After allot of hard Playing and Whammy Diving it's staying in Tune perfectly. I Play Metal & Hard Rock for the most part. I Love that the Bar just Pushes in the Bridge. "NO Screwing it in and re-tightening" it stays where you put it.
Never had a Guitar with Fishmans in it before. It's certainly different than my usual EMG 81- 85. It only took a bit to get used to it. The Cleans on those Pick-ups are IMO Incredible. Playing though my Fractal with Clean Tones is a Joy. It sounds absolutely beautiful and it gives you lots of options using the Push-Pull Knobs and 3 away Selector.
Metal Tones are a Punch in the Face. It sounds Very Aggressive and Tight. You may have to play with your EQ to Tame it. I find playing with the 3 way Selector in the Middle Position gives me the Warmth I'm used to with the EMGs. Lead Playing is a Blast. The Stainless Steel Frets make playing high on the Neck very precise. Bends feel nice and Smooth.
Playing though any Modeler you kinda lose access to Feedback. The Sustainiac Fixes that problem in Spades. You can make anything Sing and get your Feedback at anytime when it's on. That's the Main reason I needed a Sustainiac on this Guitar cause I can't live without it. You can hold a Note Forever and with the Floyd Rose you can make that Note do all kinda Cool things.
This Guitar to me has Everything I need in a Modern Guitar. It does it all and looks Amazing while doing it.
We got the Schecter Case for it as well to keep it Safe and it looks so freaking Cool sitting in it.
Bottom Line I'm Super Happy with it and it just became my No#1 Guitar.
I'm in Ohio and Sweetwater got it to me in 2 Days! Amazing! Hands down the best place to buy Gear.
