[@jutukka]

Seems that G string pole piece height of the pups is optimized for a wound string.

[@sargekowalkowski8572]

Cool, but not worth the $2-3K price tag especially against other Off Brand varieties out there. But hey, IF YOU GOT THE GREEN - Getcha one!

[@tarpley-music]

There's definitely a hefty price tag for the name on the headstock.

[@im58woody]

Love the look but even more the warmth of the tones. My son has an Eric Johnson semi hollow that’s beautiful but it is more treble oriented tones. Love the humor today. Must have had your Wheaties for breakfast lol.

[@jamesgmusic]

LOL yeah Im just being more myself these days in the vids

[@RoadKing-ky2bs]

I love Fender and Gibson (who doesn’t?), but the prices keep jumping up substantially every 6 to 9 months, putting the average (or below) earner in a bind of affordability of the US produced versions. This is where other makers and ones made overseas or Mexican shine as far as price and almost comparable features, color choices, wood selections, tone, etc., for half or more of the price Fender USA and Gibson USA practices. It's not the "working man" or "every man" guitar anymore.

[@jamesgmusic]

No argument

[@antoniofranzese]

Suona is italian for “plays”

[@KyLesCaster]

Who would buy this honestly. It sounded dull and flat.
