For the money, this guitar is awesome. The quality of the product I have questioned, as there are issues with the finish...strange differences in the darkness of the finish on the sides, both of the maple cap and the basswood body. I have asked Thomann about that. Seems mine is a second, tho Thomann won't concede that. But all else is good. The pickups are great, And I prefer them to even the Burst Buckers on my LP. The neck feels really good and the fretwork is excellent. I love the roasted maple fingerboard and neck. Very pretty and easy to play. But the fret markers in black, tho they fit the overall aesthetic, are hard to see in dim light. So that will be an issue on a dark stage. The bridge and Floyd Rose are adequate, tho not premium quality, and for this price, I really didn't expect much more. Fine for dive bombs but not a floating bridge, so pitch up isn't really an option. It's a fun guitar to play. But be aware...The jumbo frets, all tho they make play-ability much easier in many respects, are a potential problem, If you dig in too much you we be sharp. So back off on fretting pressure. The compound radius on the neck is awesome. I think it's 12' to 16' - much flatter in the upper positions. Makes the guitar play like butter.
And even tho there are "inspected by" stickers, two, on the back of the guitar, QC is spotty. The D string snapped at the bridge, simply while fine tuning, and then I noticed the G string had been strung outside of the string channel at the block. Surprised it didn't go first, but apparently, both the D and the G were not strung properly at the bridge. I would have thought QC would have caught that in Indonesia. It didn't. So, if you get one of these, or any of the Wolfgang standards, check the stringing at the bridge. And check the angle of the headstock tree in relation to the nut. Mine was fine, but if the angle is off, you will snap strings at the nut, or go out of tune even with the nut locked.
All in all, a great guitar for the money, but be aware you will need to spend some time setting it up.
