This is my first ever semi-hollow guitar so take my words with a grain of salt. First impression when I took it out of the case – what a stunning guitar! It looks exactly like I hoped it would.
Build quality: the sticker says that it was handbuilt in Korea, which is a good sign for me. I couldn't find any scratches or other defects in the paint. The neck is nice and smooth, definitely on the thinner side of the spectrum. Frets are well-polished. The only thing that really bothered me was the nut. It's too wide for the slot and its sharp edges stick out. It feels like they missed a step of fitting and sanding it down properly and just glued it “as is”.
Sound: the guitar is very resonant and is fairly loud even unplugged. When plugged the amount of noise from the pickups is minimal. I like how the pickups sound somewhat between a PAF humbucker and a stacked single coil. They are special. The neck pickup emphasizes bass and the bridge pickup boosts trebles more than I expected. The middle position is well-balanced. I really liked the tightness and punchiness of these pickups.
Misc.: the tuning stability could certainly be improved. I'm going to replace the factory bridge with a roller bridge to see if that helps. The case the guitar came with is great.
