It sounds like it is basically a graphite necked guitar.....all my Ibanez guitars have graphite necks and I love them. Definitely need to do a review of it.

"too much corners to clean", but it looks interesting!! I would like to hear some samples as well. The trem/tuner setup is great .. seems to be a good deal for this price !!
