Outstanding!

By Stephen from Norman, OK on November 27, 2017

IMO, for the price, this is the best guitar on the market. Looks great, plays great, the neck feels incredible and the body is extremely comfortable against the flesh. The variety of tones are amazing. All this coming from a Les Paul guy of 20yrs. I"m a very well pleased and content with the guitar. Sweetwaters demonstration of this guitar was very well done and represented it well. As always pleased with Sweetwaters service.

INCREDIBLE GUITAR! SIMPLY INCREDIBLE!

By Carl from NY on August 25, 2017

i'm an old school metal player, i used to play charvels and jacksons in the early 90's. been using les pauls for several years since but started playing thrash/death metal again recently and saw this guitar on the net. did some research and noted that all the specs were impeccably correct to the old school ones; decent body weight, real floyd trem, duncan pups, neck taper to die for. so i ordered one. GOOD LORD.
the body weight is sturdy as all get! the floyd is indestructable! I DARE YOU TO KNOCK THIS GUITAR OUT OF TUNE! I DOUBLE DOG DARE YOU!!! the body is as original as an original 'san-dimas' body gets; chunky and feels so good to play, (that's from a guy that plays les pauls primarily). the pickups are the real deal; seymour duncan JB in the bridge and 59' in the neck.
it has the 'six pack of tone' thingy; a three way pup selector and a a 'no load' on the tone knob;(this disables the tone knob and plays like a 'one pickup/no tone knob guitar. love it. it brings the HEAVIES!), and one of the coolest features is the placement of the truss rod adjustment. so easy to adjust.
i gotta give this guitar 11 out of 10, and i gotta give props to Connor Smith at sweetwater for making it happen for me!!!

Awesome

This guitar is amazing! The neck is just awesome. Better than my American Standard. The Seymour Duncans are the perfect match. Bart from Sweetwater is always great to work with. The guitar only needed some minor tweeking when it arrived. Great guitar and great company. My New #1!

Highly Versatile Guitar

By Joe Wiseman from Mobile, Alabama on April 18, 2017

The build quality on the instrument is top notch. The metallic black finish is gorgeous with the matching black hardware. It came reasonably well set up out of the box, but with a Floyd Rose (at this price point, it's not German, probably Korean or Chinese, but there's virtually no performance difference) you know you have to adjust, adjust, and then adjust again before you get it set correctly. The two areas I'm most impressed with on this guitar are the neck and the electronics. The neck is, hands down, the most comfortable I've ever played. The neck profile combined with the compound radius makes it a joy to play. I could even tell when I was lifting it out of the box while it was still wrapped in packing material that it was going to be amazing. Now, as far as the electronics are concerned... wow. Is this a shred machine? Hell yes it's a shred machine. It's a Charvel. But it is so much more. The coil taps, 3 way switching, and no load tone knob make this guitar as versatile as it gets. Want a tele? Bam. Want a jangly Rick sound? Bam. Want a bluesy single coil Strat? Bam. Throaty Les Paul? Done. And of course you can get your Shred on. As usual, my sales rep Aaron Swaidner was there every step of the way with great advice and input. Don't buy a guitar from anyplace other than Sweetwater. You know you're going to get the best deal and service on the planet. Period.
