This is my main guitar for 3 months. I have a fairly substantial amount of graters, and I tried to be more than enough, but it is one that suits what I do in my group. I love everything about it, a guitar must fully take, or change it to full.

In the list of defects may be noted that the original bridge is really too "vintage" to me (just an attack to the rope remains in place on the bridge).
And also the rhythm channel (pimples), which in my opinion has no interest because all deaf (and this is not a concern tone), so I have found a solution by using it commme a killswitch (possibly in the future I will be installing a real one)

From the perspective of the highlights: The sound. Aesthetics (the body in real wood tree is still super class). Slamming Fender. Sensitivity to feedback and filthy grunge side. Super accurate knobs. ON can do almost everything with in terms of styles, from jazz to grunge through reggae, picking in saturated clean as it is brilliant. The tuners are highly reliable, and also vibrato.

I love the 3 mic positions that have all three different character, and the central position that gives nothing less than a humbucker sound.

This is a signature guitar yes, but not limited to Elvis Costello style, and with all due respect I have for him, so much the better! I get to play with all quickly with sound and presence necessary. I play in a JCM 800, a Jmp a ampeg v4 and other types dr504n HIWATT amps and whenever it has its sound, and fits the grain of the amp at the same time.

In short, you throw it!
