Well the guitar got here today and after a few hours of setup time it's spectacular!!! I didn't buy the guitar for the aesthetics, as matter of fact, it's a little over the top for me. But when I opened the case it looked very nice. It had roundwound strings on it, which I changed to flatwounds (Thomastik JS112 .012 thru .050). And with the new strings the guitar came to life with a tone that is just fantastic, especially the neck pickup which to me is always the hardest pickup to get right! I also oiled up the fretboard and bridge base, tightened the bigsby handle and two knobs, polished the frets, set the intonation, and polished the whole guitar looking it over carefully for any damage. There was only some small impressions on it. I will probably put more marks on this guitar in the first week I will play it! So here it is.
