Looks like their video is working - trans blue one is sold out, next stock in 3 months
I'd be curious to see what fret wire they went with. They say medium jumbo but the pics make it look quite tall, certainly taller than what I'd expect on a Fender with MJs - this could actually be a good thing as it should give enough leeway for a tech to introduce a bit of compound radius towards the dusty end.
But I'm with you on 7.25 and Fender though - feels just great in the "first half" of the neck, so to speak. I find a really nice compromise is 7.25 gradually increasing to about 10, best of both worlds for me.
But (slight tangent) they should have a word with their copywriter. This is the kind of copy I would expect to see on a Chinese company's site, not a US boutique maker... (my emphasis in bold)
WTF??
They have been going since 1984 though. There are probably around 15,000 of them in circulation.
I've only just seen this demo (I thought it was the old one when the first came out). The Superstrat sounds are right up my street, too but the hollowbody is also very nice.
I’d like to try one.
Only thing that niggles me is the slight ambiguity of their operational set up, they made a fan fare a few years ago about not using OEM factories and having their own Indonesian factory but I can’t believe that is the case and couldn’t find a reference on the latest website.
And having seen how quickly they're selling, I would tend to agree that they might not depreciate as much as I would have thought (especially if restock is spotty).
Again, I don't think they're overpriced new at all, given the specs. I'd quite like to try one in the same session as a charvel hss, and maybe an Ibanez az, but the chances of having all three available in the same shop at any time might be a tad slim... Will have a look on andertons.
