Oh My God.......

This guitar, is by far the best guitar I have ever played. I feel like this guitar makes everything that you play sound good.

When I opened it, I felt like there was epic music playing in the background.

This was the first high quality guitar that I have ever purchased, and now it seems like every other guitar is of terrible quality. No sting buzz, it sounds great clean, and it sounds so brutal with distortion.

Also, these pictures do not do tihs guitar justice. I own the "Black Cherry" color, and it is absolutely gorgeous. The pearl trim that goes around the edge is such an eye catcher. When this guitar is clean, it shines like a diamond. I would buy this guitar over one thousand times.

This guitar is a pure schredding machine. I love mine. I have the black cherry that was made in Indonesia. I have heard people say that the ones from Indonesia lacked quality, but I cannot tell a difference. If you are looking for a metal machine that looks awesome, then this is the uitar for you.

This is the best guitar I've ever played. I got it as my second guitar and couldn't find anything better. Even played better than some gibsons worth thousands. The ORIGINAL Floyd Rose is one of my favorite things about it. The licensed ones don't let you adjust the action so your better off getting this or the BlackJack ATXs with the real ones. The EMGs are amazing. The finish and trim look better in person. Also note that the black has a goldish finish. THe ONLY complaint I have is that it fingerprints easily and dust is very visible even though I play for at least an hour every day. Overall the best guitar for metal you can get.

This guitar plays like butter and sound like heaven. I've plugged it into many different amps and it brings even the crappy little cubes to an acceptable level. FR stays in tune for weeks even with dive bombing. Get it, love it,
