I've been using the guitar for 2 years now and my impression of it is not great. Immediately after purchase had to take it to a guitar maker to have the frets sanded and the neck compared and the poorly made electronics redone, after a year I had to replace the chewed plastic zero fret with something better. The headstock also needed to be replaced because after 2 pitch adjustments the headstock tore off and there was nothing I could do about it. On top of that all the parts are non-standard sizes so it is very difficult to get them. For this quality I would rather put it in the price category around 4000,- but I would rather get something else.
