okay body, shit neck/tuners, great pickups (though shit jack and switch). more than worth the price in my opinion, but if you're of the modding type, you'll probably end up doing it

Damn, I don't want to hear of the neck being crap. I've been thinking about getting their xv910 which is a semi hollow. Not nearly the same guitar but I fear the same problems will plague it too. I am of the modding type, but usually only when something needs it.

well not crap crap, but unlike the electroncis and maybe the body of which you get more than what you pay for, the neck is about even. not very much.
it's still good enough that I'm in no hurry to replace it, and its not liek it's warped or anything, but it just doesnt feel as nice
