Cheaply made not looking good for Steve Vai
Pros
Ibanez version of floyd is good haven't noticed anything wrong with it and the guitar stays tuned when using it fully, but I haven't used it that much yet so can't really say it's absolute good.
Mics are I think spot on and really like the sounds. Seems this guitar can produce all nececcary tones through them very happy with that :)
Monkey grip is actaully very useful when putting guitar on and off and moving it around this feature should be on every guitar! Helps alot!
Also the tree of life is one of the if not the most beautiful artwork I have seen on a fretboard and gives much joy to look at when playing :) There should be more this kind of fretboards on guitars !!!
Minuses
Guitar won't stay in tune long times and seems the low E, A, and D can't be in tune same time while other higher strings G,B and e are. Lowen 3 strings are always little bit flat and it's not possible to tune them perfecly when other 3 stings are. I Don't know is this floyd problem in general or just this guitar, but that's how it is.
Biggest minus though is and this makes this guitar look very cheap cheap like 50 € guitar!!!
After using this guitar about 14 months saddles has started to loose coating and "A" string has loose so much that the last finish which I think the saddles are made from is now showing. I think they are made from copper or bronze since the color match to that metall. This is very dissapointing when compairing this guitar to my jackson dinky 1 which is over 10 years old and none of it's saddles has loose any coating and that guitar costed me 100 € used!!!
I now have to replace the saddles since they start to look very unggly and it will cost many tens of euros!!!
Frets has also flaws. When I accidentally sometime move high E out from top of the frets it gets stuck between the fret and board so there is gabs in some of the frets and the board and string get's caught between that. This should not be happening on this expensive guitar!
There also was little wood splinter between the scratchplate and guitar body and thus the shield had this little bent. I had to open few screws and then remove the splinter and bend the shield a bit so I wouldn't have that bumb in it becuase of the splinter after I removed it. Unbelievable sloppy craftsmanship there I would say!!!
Some painting problems too I noticed in some parts of the guitar there is paint dropplets which occur when you put too much paint in the same are too fast.
I would rate this guitar more like 200 € guitar rather than 500 €
I am little bit dissapointed specially becuase of the saddless! I have never heard or seen this problem before.
