Sorry for the lack of update. I was in St. Louis for work all last week and have generally been busier than a one legged man in an ass-kicking contest.

I’m really digging it. The pickups are excellent. I’m generally a fan of P90s and these are sweet and well balanced. They do cleans quite nicely and still grind when you apply gain. My guess is they’re possibly a little on the underwound/vintage wound side.

The neck is excellent. Very comfortable. Chunky, but not an exaggerated baseball bat. The smaller body is quite well balanced and ergonomic—similar experience to playing a Junior, but maybe a little more comfortable (for me at least) because the weight/waist is shifted a bit more towards the fretting hand.

Fit and finish are excellent. These normally come in a custom smaller mono bag, but they shipped mine in a full size mono bag, which is cool. Overall, I’m quite pleased and my plan is now to use it on rhythm tracks for songs I’m just starting to record which will likely be finished sometime in 2035.

Thanks for the detailed reply! I went down bit of a rabbit hole watching people playing them. I love the ergonomics, and they sound fantastic and surprisingly versatile. I'm intrigued with the pull-out pot to get that bassy sound. I'd love to try that with fuzz.

What amps are you going through?

Mostly been using my Boss Katana on the Clean setting (which is really similar to the Roland JC sound) or the Crunch setting. That or I’ve been running with headphones into my Simplifier (mostly on the Fendery and Marshally sides).

How do you like the Simplifier? I'm very curious about it.
 
So I’ve had this for a while now and it’s a really great little guitar. Sounds absolutely wonderful. Super fun to play. Chunky neck is extra comfortable. I was concerned that I might be vexed not having a tone control, but whatever the electronics have going on works well.

The mud switch is an acquired taste but with gain/fuzz it sounds super cool and can give things a synthy or woman tone vibe.

Has kinda become my go to guitar for electric stuff lately
 
Well while we’re talking about this….


… here’s a teaser of something I bought today that’s super random and I didn’t need… but I wanted one, because. :helper:
