Sounds and plays great. It has an ebony fretboard, which I think is absolutely fantastic. In fact, I think that is what persuaded me to get it instead of a PRS SE. The finish is pretty much flawless. Nice chunky neck - glued on IIRC. .
It is very heavy indeed. This might be an issue for some people.
I bought it secondhand. I was looking for a PRS SE at the time, but came across this. It was a bit dirty and needed a new switch, and that may explain why I only paid what I did.
Overall, I am delighted with it. Love or hate the bloke, there is nothing wrong with the guitar.
(I REALLY do not like reverse headstocks, so that rules out most of their range for me).
I saw they were supposed to have some new models out, there was a Rabea signature model with a Padauk neck which looked very nice.

He didn't even know who Mr Chapman was for the record. He is a jazz degree guy and has a progressive metal band just releasing an EP on which, he recorded several tracks with this guitar.
From what I've seen of it , briefly, it's a well put together guitar and played well. Didn't get to run the pickups through the paces but sounded ok at home volume.
The 7 string Tele is nice, and the Rob Scallon sig is nice in both 6 and 8.
More power to him I say.
The guitars ive only played an ML-1 and the super skinny neck with really heavy body felt a bit odd to me.
But ive heard people get good sounds.
The stock pickups seem to be the only weakness in the ones which come with non branded pickups, also with a 20 minute fettle play and sound lovely. The fretwork is also very well finished.
There are far far worse guitars made in that neck of the woods being sold for far more, so if you can get over paying more (for less), traditional brand snobbery & your views on Rob and his videos you can get a lovely guitar for not a lot.
the guitar is nice the ebony board is a bonus at this price point and it sounds like a good rock guitar.
That said its on the transfer list here or eBay soon mostly as I have fat arthritic fingers and tuning the reverse headstock is difficult but you have to say the early world guitar ones were a lot of bang for yah Buck
prices have risen now and there are lots of deals especially the end of year deals so the full fat price is not as competitive as it once was.
