DG
Let down by basic quality control issues...
Overall, It felt like a lovely made guitar but I think I got a rogue one... The P90 pickup sound great but the volume and tone pots and the selector switch all made scratchy noises and no amount of switch cleaner would fix it and changing the electrics on a semi hollow was not something I was prepared to do.
The action was also quite buzzy - I had to do a complete fret level and even then it wasn't great - turned out the nut had been cut too low... Took the nut off to replace with a new one and found the slot that had been cut to seat the nut was also cut too deep - and had actually cut into the truss rod. Even with a new nut the action was a bit all over the place... had to return the guitar.
It was shame as I've heard a lot of good comments on these guitars. I may try a new one and pay the extra to have it checked over and set up before shipping it out.
