I bought this in June or so last year but only received it in February, this year.
It's in really good condition, just a two very minor nicks/scratches & very minor blemishes in the paintwork in some places. Pics don't do it justice.
I really like the neck, pretty perfect width, chunkiness & feel for me.
I replaced the SD-1s with vintage HB-1s - luckily a perfect fit! The guitar sounded good with the those pickups, especially the neck pickup, but it really sings with the HB-1s! Maybe it's a placebo affect but I really do prefer them. The guitar compares quite well with my Ibanez Artist AS200 with a TV Jones Classic plus in the bridge, which has been my gold standard for semi-hollows. The SFIV is a bit fuller sounding & can rock out a bit more but cleans are still stellar. They sound different enough to keep both so that's all that matters! :lol:
I have really been enjoying this guitar in the last week. Here are the obligatory (and as always, far too many) pics:
This is a crappy pic but anybody know if this is the standard bridge they came with? Just haven't seen one quite like this before.
