    This is seriously one of the best guitars you can get for this price. Everything on this guitar feels amazing. Also if you're debating on spending a little extra cash on this sweet finish, just do it. You won't regret it

    This is a fantastic guitar. Just as good as a jp7 minus a few specs here and there. Sounds amazing and plays like a dream. Neck is very thin and smooth for easy movememt on fretboard. Holds tuning better than any guitar ive had without a Floyd rose. The mystic dream color looks way better in person than it does in pictures.
