Not that articulate but I must tell you this is an amazing guitar. I wouldn't change the pickups because they are very dynamic, the neck is flawless, a joy to play, I immediately tuned it B to B and even the factory strings are nice. Stays in tune despite my very hard picking, very well balanced, and gorgeous to boot. I only dislike where the top strap button is so I moved it to the end of the top horn, and I'm currently having issues with the input jack, after getting it in may, and I am in the process of contacting Thomann. Otherwise this guitar is an absolute joy to play.
