2018$229goodIt was set up really well. The store hires a guitar tech to tune and set up all their guitars. Very comfortable. Sounds great and endless tone possibilities with the pickup selection and tone control. My friend who plays keyboards likes the sound of gibson style guitars but also wants me to learn Jeff Beck songs so I would need a whammy. I honestly didn't think that type of guitar was something I was going to find. I am picky about tuners and the grover tuners and floyd rose tuners are the best. Glad I found it.
