I am still trying
Color: Vintage Black Style: Duncan
For beginners is a good guitar, I am not a guitarist (professional) although, has a nice tone and the fretboard is dynamic, dies get out tube easy as my other electric guitar. I am still in the process of discovering more about this guitar I should say that for me is a little bit pricy

Meh
Color: Vintage Black Style: Duncan
Strings are buzzing against the fret board and the intonation is off, needs work right out of the box. For the price, this guitar should be ready to play. Fret board was very dirty too, I don't feel like its worth the price at all. The neck feels small, maybe because its 24 frets on a 24-3/4" neck, probably should be 22 frets. Nice looking guitar though. ... show more

Worth twice its price tag
Color: Vintage Black Style: Duncan
I bought the vintage black[Duncan]model over the EMG..It sounds just as good in metal mode and better when playing clean..And as soon as your hands touch its neck and body you know its a quality instrument and when u see the price tag your eyes show disbelief as you eagerly walk towads the checkout line thinking to yourself "what a bunch of idiots".. The Duncan VB has a very low action A coil tap/split Lighter than an LP Standard The best guitar you will ever see or hold for just over $1000 ... show more
