So it cam in yesterday and I love it :!!!:

-Plays very well with low action and minimal buzz. I think the gearless tuners definitely help with that.
-Guitar is semi-glossy, not too shiny but definitely somewhat reflective, I like it.
-Finish on the back of the neck feels a little rough, extremely minor gripe though
-The 57's are definitely lower gain and brighter than what I have been using. A little too bright for my current setup but once my cab comes and I can use my Orange OR15 I think it will be perfect. They are definitely more articulate than my X2N and Tone Zone.
-It's so much lighter than what I'm used to, I love that about SGs.

Overall I'm very pleased. This weekend I'll be throwing some heavier gauge CircleK strings on it and putting it in maybe Drop B or A and once I get the new amp stuff set up, I'm going to start recording a few songs I've been wanting to release.

I'm not opposed to that :thumb:

I want to see how the 57s work with my Orange first but if a pickup change is necessary I'm very down with some pink ones

Was about to take some with the guitar and the new amp tonight and then my phone died. Will do tomorrow, also going to put some new strings on this weekend and tune down a bunch. It's so nice going from a 6 watt 6v6 tube combo with a 10 inch speaker to a nice 15 watt EL84 head with a 12 inch cab. Just more noticeable punch and girth. Can't wait til the 1x15 is done.

Here it is. Can't wait to get all my fuzzes hooked up to my blender so I can run my entire pedal board through this thing. Still loving how this plays and can't wait to put on some new strings and tune way down.
