Love the fit, finish and sound. The Bigsby works perfect! Mine is the model with Filtertron pickups and they sound great! Don't care for the polished neck - too stiff and squeaky until it gets sweaty. Other than that I love the way it plays. I'm a Gibson guy, so I'm always hitting the volume knob which is too close, but I have the same problem with my Strat, so anyone used to that will be fine. Picked mine up secondhand for 400 bucks and it didn't have a scratch on it. Absolutely beautiful guitar for the price!
Preferred Settings + Usage:
I like the "Dry Swich" push/pull knob in the up position. I use this guitar mostly for brutally clean, Gretsch-y type stuff and it's perfect for that with the Bigsby. Does the Brian Setzer thing perfect!
