Saw a video about these several years back and thought it was cool. Kinda glad that I didn't try them out, due to my sweating problem. If I did, fretboard would just have weird staining look to it, when I do take them off or one of them got accidentally peeled off after a year or two. 😂

Bought one of these recently and sent it back. I did intend to do the set up myself which I'm competent to do. A more thorough check of the neck revealed further problems which were a hump at the body joint, high frets above 12th fret, Fret ends rough as f**k, nut unevenly cut, E and A strings cut so low no room for adjustments and the other 4 strings way to high. The intonation was way out a small point but taking account of the other issues not worth touching. Although it was sold as a new guitar the serial number suggested August 2022 so a COVID era guitar, probably been sitting in a shipping container for months on end. A lot of the problems though it left the factory with. I'll mention that I bought it from GAK and that they were superb in picking up the instrument and refunding my account via PayPal.

I'm sorry you ended up with a dud too.A KZfaqr I like a lot said recently in a video how stores were basically forced to buy all the Fender stock they'd made because they massively overestimated demand and, if they refused, then Fender would stop stocking them.

Thanks for watching the video dude, I appreciate it! Obviously, not liking the guy is totally fine. We don’t have to like everybody but the argument about his guitars being copies is a bit of a stretch. The shapes are all open to use and the parts are made by companies to be used. It’s kind of like saying ESP or Solar are just copies with no innovation or any other brand who makes a Strat, tele, etc. I’d like to see more innovation too in the guitar space but these guitars are fucking good man.
