    Someone sounds like a Stone Temple Pilots fan. These sound great and I like the fact they are being used in a rock context, as opposed to rockabilly or ambient. Sounds terrific.

    Finally got mine just over a week ago. I grabbed the gold sparkle. I mostly play Fenders so it took me awhile to get accustomed to the neck shape and radius. It’s still a little bit of a challenge playing about the 15th fret and I could do without the Bigsby. (I have to retune the strings constantly and I rarely even use the tremolo.) I would’ve preferred if this came with a fixed bridge. Sounds amazing otherwise and feels absolutely wonderful in my hands. It took me 3 months to get it, but it was worth the wait!
