I purchased a 2019 Ocean Blue Omega Extreme, I tried it out on a Fender blues tube amp, though it was nice. I got it home plugged it into my Dr. Z, removed the plastic from the pickups (didn't notice in the store) and was blown away by the sound.

Other than that, its is an amazing guitar for the price.
