There have been some good reviews on them so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 (edited) Jon (Bassassin) tried one of these at a music fair when they first came out, and AFAIR he wasn't at all impressed. You'd probably be much better off picking up an old JapCrap copy for the same sort of cash.

IBWT Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) I've got one. It's not a real Ric but not so far away... VERY lightweight, fast neck and mid-focused sound. Stethically is not as cool as a real Ric but it's more practical since the bridge is the typical Fender style one that can be directly replaced with a Gotoh/BadAss/etc. Payed 550£ and I think it's worth every penny.
