    I play professionally in my project (Gears of The Universe) live. This guitar is built like a tank. The quality is amazing. Yes, it is built in Indonesia, but the quality control is top notch. Be honest, if you're a serious guitar player, you've played guitars made in America that aren't that great, and have also played guitars from other countries that knock your socks off. What matters is quality control and .strandberg* has that down. Hands down, this is THE BEST GUITAR I HAVE EVER PLAYED. I will be a .strandberg* player from now on. I love how light this thing is and the tone is there. Seriously, check out my videos if you need proof that this thing can hang. Clean, blues, metal, your tone is here. Fishman pickups with push/pull pots give you so many options. Feel free to ask me questions if you want. Fan frets are sweet! Endure neck = best neck ever. I have injuries in my neck and hand from the Military, and this guitar let's me play like never before. Yes, it's worth the price. I'll be buying more soon!

    How is the tuning stability on this? How complicated is it to change strings? Also, I was wondering how good the sustain with it being a being bolt on neck?

    Tuning stability is pretty good, and stringing it has a bit of a learning curve. Kind of like a Steinberg but I've heard this one is a bit easier in comparison.
