Great metal oriented guitar!

Just beautiful to look at. A work of art almost. Love the symbol on the 12th fret and dark ebony fretboard. This thing chugs for sure. But the pickups are not too muddy or too bright, instead they are a great platform to eq!! There was a period where peo0le were having problems with fretboard cracks but thankfully that had been addressed by the time I got my model. 4 stars for Reissue and because with its looks its very obvious its geared towards metal guitarists which will put many off.
