      Black paint marks at neck heal joint, Cracked neck heal joint, Super dry fret board, Super scratchy Frets, Super wobly 3 way toggle switch, Tiny dents and scratches, Untidy paint job, Truss rod is very tight, Volume and Tone knobs has stops while moving, Tuning pegs aren't smooth they too have stops while adjusting. All and all a substandard product combine with negligent and Horrible Quality Control.

    it makes me kinda sad to see how both Cort and Harley Benton apparently were the only bigger manufacturers who were interested in putting EMGs newest PUs in guitars and make bulk deals for them. On the one side its great to get these kind of budget guitars with namebrand killer PUs, on the other it tells you a lot about how fishman fluence is kicking EMGs butt.

    Stop lying Paul. It's an electric guitar not acoustic. The wood doesn't have any effect on the sound once plugged in to an amp. Pickups are magnetic. What is that ? Some magical ferromagnetic wood ? Cut the shit. You plug the guitar in , adjust your bass mids and treble, then you add reverb delay and gain, therefore the sound of the instrument is colored. Stop lying to people. Tonewood on an acoustic is a thing. On an electric fuck no.

      Appreciate that you have accepted that fact yourself, but perhaps Paul, like many others, haven't, and your message may be just a liiiitttle too aggressive for non-believers to even regard you seriously buddy :)
