I like the specs, but I've never liked the traditional Pedulla body shop, be it on guitars or their more well known basses. The basses have always sounded excellent as I would presume the guitars do. The same age Ibanez artist or Yamaha SG wouldn't run much less than this, so the price seems fair enough. I'd like to play it, but I couldn't swing the price no matter how good it might sound and play.
