    I love the way this guitar shreds! the stainless steel frets take it to another level! The feel is fantastic! The Sustainiac is tones of fun. I find it activates the string quicker if the strings are low tension. I prefer the tension of NYXL .8 gauge strings tuned down to c# ( for a lead guitar, rythm guitar might want to keep the standard tension it comes with.) you could get the same effect with Rev Willy's .7 gauge strings in Standard E tuning. of course you will have to adjust the tension on the Floyd Rose system accordingly, you got to take one spring out and turn those screws in the back, youtube it before trying, you got to have a way of holding the Floyd Rose in place with a block or pencil or something., or have guitar center do it for you. than lower the action to your liking and nothing shreds better, well worth it. I think the supper solid structure and stainless steel frets make this guitar feel the best. The smoothest guitar picks I can find are the Dunlop Big Stubby, Dunlop Delrin 500, and Dunlop Flow. This is all advice for shred guitar solos. if your playing funk rythm you will prefer less tension on strings and a lighter pick. lol. probably same guitar though. : )

  • Absolutely gorgeous. Excitedly excited!

    I was super nervous from the previous review so I had the guitar delivered to the store. Out of the box this was an incredibly gorgeous guitar. Flawless beauty, no damage, tools and parts were taped to the box. Sustainiac works amazing, and will be awesome to play around with. So happy with my purchase!
