Outstanding axe, got it for $20 and a trade in of some piece of crap guitar, the pawn shop blew this one, incredible neck, this thing rocks, can soar and scream when needed although I generally play mostly Southern Rock, truth is, I've bought and sold many guitars, at least 50 over the years, no exaggeration, this one isn't going anywhere, might not be the last guitar I ever own but it's a keeper, if something bad happened to it, I would definitely try to get another one.
