    The headstock perfectly incorporates the Firebird vibe, while the pickguard additionally reinforces the Mustang shape. All around, this design coherently harmonises offset classics whithout itself feeling any less classic.

    Picked up one of these (in the States) after eyeing one for a year and I'm so bummed I waited. Fit and finish is between my Gibson LP Trad Pro and Fender EJ Strat, so I feel like it's probably priced a tad conservatively even. The mono bag is excellent. The pickups/electronics are my favorite part; very usable/sweet tones and the pots have a nice, wide sweep to them. Not sure if they all have this, but I love the subtle flaming on the back of the neck as well. Just a joy to play!

    on the web site it says these come with cases not gig bags, also FYI if you select Harmony as the brand on the electric guitar page only the Comet comes up.
