This guitar is an interesting one. I had gotten it to have an E-type body guitar again and wasn’t expecting much. I was surprised in terms of sound and playability - it sounded better with my presets than many of my other guitars, and the neck feels amazing all up and down.

Starting with the biggest question: is it neck heavy? Technically it does, although it’s not nearly as much as explorers usually do. I used to have an ESP LTD explorer and that thing neck dove like crazy, even with the strap button relocated, and that has a 24.75” scale length. This one has a typical modern seven string scale length of 26.5” and only has just a little. It actually stays in place unless you coax it a little.

The neck has a thin C profile and feels very comfortable. Ended up not mentioning this in the video so I’m throwing this in here.

The controls overall feel great. The pickup selector switch is satisfying to use however is very out of the way, so quick pickup changes aren’t as fast as with a blade switch. The volume potentiometer is fine however the tone pot turns way too easily. I have to check it every few minutes and have caught it being accidentally turned significantly lower. The tone control is also a push-pull for coil splitting, which is nice however I never use it.

The fret access is better than one might expect for an E type. The lower horn is far less intrusive than usual so accessing the 24th fret isn’t a chore. Your hand will contact it but it’s still possible to get to the 24th without having to do any kind of hand contortions.

The stainless steel frets feel great, the ebony fretboard is smooth, and the neck has a very satisfying thin modern C feeling profile to it. One thing that’s surprisingly good is the compound radius. I find I’m hitting more notes that I would otherwise miss in a way that it feels like the neck profile is helping me.

The locking tuners work as expected. Tuning stability is OK, however you will need to retune every now and then. The guitar does feel like a premium instrument but the tuning stability is about average overall.

The pickups sound great!They might be bright if you like a warmer sound but for rock or metal, these fit in the mix perfectly. That being said, I don’t use the split coil sound at all, mostly the bridge and sometimes the neck.

Did you find this useful? Let me know if there is more information you’d like to hear.
