I wonder why they went for roller saddles? It's almost as though they are expecting modders to be fitting Bigsbys. My god, those pickup screws!
I am in the "Artist Guitars Official Designers" group and we were sent surveys to pick what features would go in their new lineup, I don't remember if roller saddles were a choice, but those screws definitely weren't

Oddly they seem to be part of the masterplan on their website image thunderbird . Yes, that's why I didn't complain, that and I got 10% discount for being in the early payer/designer group.
Next batch due here: 11th Feb.

How does it compare to your HB GT thunderbird, from the video I realise the pickups are different. Just wondered how you found the finish, quality etc compared to HB?

The quality is on par with the HB, just the materials used are a step up from the Benton but the Artist is nearly twice the price, to be fair to the HB.
I will be doing a detailed side by side slide show review, soon.
