Beautiful guitar, playing it is enchanting!! Very well set up out of the box, the finish is truly flawless... For a mid-range guitar, the value for money is exceptional... It holds tuning well as long as you don't abuse the "bigsby"... I also find it very expressive when being gentle with it... In collaboration with a tube "twin-reverb", it rocks and sounds great... The sound is very distinctive, and I find it more versatile than on my "telecaster"... In short, I love it...
