I have to say it sounds amazing, not digging the 9s???? that are on this guitar however, will be getting set up with 11s ASAP.
Sounds like a strat in the 2nd and 5th and it absolutely screams in 1st with some drive. I was terrified of the Floyd too but Ive given this thing a few hours of non stop abuse and it barely went out of tune.
Fretboard needs a good conditioning and it'll need a further set up when the big strings go on... But for 350 quid I'm absolutely delighted
Main problem is the microphony. I can speak into bridge and middle pickups and hear my voice through the amplifier. It squeals with microphonic feedback with normal levels of gain. Very weird. Not usable. @skullfunkerry have you tried yours with some gain? Any signs of microphony?
EDIT: now that I've watched the video, mine definitely isn't like that...
What was the glue-type stuff on the fretboard? As per the video, my fingers were black after two minutes of playing, another weird thing that I've never known before.
I will try at high gain and volume tomorrow and see if I'm getting the same issues, I'll be really disappointed if so. Serves me right for being a black Friday slug
Thanks
