Sound Pure's Take
Weight: 7.3 lbs.
This might be the best guitar I have ever played. The quartersawn maple neck and fretboard feel amazing sliding under your thumb and fingertips, and although it's hard to believe, the wood sounds even better than it looks! A beautiful, shimmering single coil tone along with the Super-X Humbucker makes this an instant delight. Every note - in every register - on every pickup configuration - will evoke the type of feelings you get from your favorite players and records. It's no wonder Tyler is well loved by studio musicians, this guitar is capable of giving you the cleanest, fastest and most tasteful playing of your life. A truly inspiring guitar, it is perfect in every way. Expression, versatility, power, and fluidity are all words that embody this beautiful axe. Trust me, you have to try this one.
