    In this video, I check out the classy Pro Series Signature Gus G. San Dimas
    This high-performance axe features a resonant mahogany San Dimas body with a sturdy through-body maple neck with scarf joint and graphite reinforcement to guard against the rigors of the road. The 12” radius maple fingerboard provides a flat surface for comfortable fretting and features 24 jumbo frets and black dot inlays, while the heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheels make for quick and easy neck relief tweaks.
    Ideal for rock and metal tones, the passive high-output Gus G.-designed Blackfire Pickups Titan humbucker set features an alnico 5 magnet and produces a powerful midrange boost with crunchy rhythm tones and screaming leads. Harness its tonal power with three-way blade pickup switching and a single volume knob, and enjoy smooth and effortless dynamic tremolo action with a Gotoh® Custom 510 bridge.
    An irresistible temptation, the Pro Series Signature Gus G. San Dimas dressed in a sumptuous Candy Apple Red finish with a reverse licensed Fender® Stratocaster® matching headstock and black hardware.

I don't know why but i think this guitar would perfect for me and along with the SG this one more so has to be the best looking guitar I've ever seen, thanks for your video dude because Id probably missed out on knowing this thing even excited otherwise.

    I must admit, I was pretty interested in this.
    The first time I've found a great neck heel - and neck-thru even better! - on a full, proper Strat body, with all the rounded edges.
    All other superstrats go angular for some dumb reason...except for Charvel So Cal & San Dimas types...but they have the full Fender style block bolt-on heel.
    Ugh! Frustrating!
    So when I saw this, needless to say, I got extremely interested. The only thing to stop it being the perfect superstrat I've been dreaming of is that ridonkulous upside down headstock!
    But...if everything else plays and sounds and feels good..and the price is right...I could live with it. It's freaken stupid looking in my book! But aesthetics are subjective.
    Anyway, I'll put up with it so long as it doesn't get in the way of the rest.
    But..it's all moot anyway cos I just bought a DK24 (Pink!).
