Setup
|
like I said needs a little setup. the head was tight and needed to be loosened.
Changed the tailpiece to a Fults and now it is perfect . Have tried a few bridges and I think I like the one that came with it the best , though the kat eyz pegged is great also. |

It is a looker. Nice maple finish. I love the bronze low key look. the first one I recieved was damaged in shipping and the imprint was mismatched fading from shallow to deep. The replacement is great. I give the second one a ten
I love it more every day |

had to get it replaced. I had to pay to return it, but it was worth it. They had me take pictures before I returned it, but got the new one to me very quickly. |
