It seems a really nice guitar, I like the switching. And the fact they’ve brought out a budget version.

Well now, as it turned out this is the one I went for. Had a shortlist of guitars I’d checked out online and this was the cheapest so I tried it first. Absolutely blew me away, the shape is actually really comfortable, has one of the nicest necks I’ve ever played, frets are good, neck width/radius is perfect for me. Nice trem. Pickups are nice, good clear tones and nice with some dirt. I can’t remember exactly what the switching is, the 5 positions sound different but I can’t remember what each position is.

I don’t know if it’s the placement of the buttons of the length I usually have my strap at but there is no neck dive.
I wish I was good at describing pickup sounds.

Due to musical differences I've decided I can't work with myself any more.

It's definitely a better strap button position than an SG. So glad I moved mine to the top horn. Much more comfy. Maybe the body length helps too? Would you say it feels light?

It does feel pretty light. Balanced well. Nice to play sitting and standing.
