And in my opinion it is too expensive for european customers. I got this one new in 2001, made in Korea 24 frets, solid body, neck thru, Steinberger Trem, HSH pickups with five-way switching, one tone, one volume, That steinberger headless double ball tuning system. Came with the Gig Bag. Really quiet, sounds nice distorted, sounds really nice clean with chorus. For this price, I couldn't ask for more.
Intonation is great, and the fret work is fine.
Finish is great, one slightly uneven paint line, but that's getting really picky. Looks great in White. The action was set lower than I am used to, but I'm not changing it. The neck is a bit thicker than my others, but not enough to make it a big adjustment. Everything seems kosher on this unit.
