One of the tuners broke after the first restring and setup so that wasn?t cool. Thought about returning it but I like the guitar overall so I replaced the tuners with some kluson knockoffs and we are good to go. A good setup will do wonders for this thing. Out of the box it?s not very good at holding a tune. I would suggest moving the springs up on the vibrato to the highest setting. This will help keep it in tune better. Plus make sure to lube everything up with good with some tri flow. Also, the pickups are set way low on the neck and again this will all have to be adjusted once you get it. I was less than enthused about the neck pickup until it was moved up a bunch. I was actually thinking of swapping the neck pickup out as it sounded so dull. But again after a proper setup this guitar is a blast to play! The neck is awesome for smaller hands. Way easy to move up and down the neck at lightning speed! Paired with my twin reverb and my trusty DS1 I sound just like Kurt!
