This is a very fine guitar in every way.

In most cases I find neck HB´s to easily get muddy in the bass, but in this guitar the Super 58 pu keeps the lows very clear while at the same time the highs are not getting harsh.

In EU they are sold new for aprox. €585 and well worth the money IMO.
I was just listening to a Demo of one of these..

Remember - you can have a very fat neck Tone for Solos then flip a toggle switch or pull Volume or Tone
switch for Parallel and low mids will disappear and
instant clear chords.

My problem is I am a little spoiled by Boutique Fretwork ...but for $600 new I could get it refretted and electronically tweaked and still be at $1000.

As long as it has the Resonance...as said earlier - is a good point.
