I bought this for my birthday. It came quick and I have spent about five or six total hours playing it, and I think its a wonderful instrument. It sounds perfect for just about every style. It sounds great finger picked or plucked with a pick, and its just about perfect for home recording. And lastly, its super attractive in person.
PROS
-Extremely Light-weight
-The action was perfect out of the box, good sustain
-The stock strings were surprisingly very good
-The humbuckers and EQ sound perfect for my tastes, I won't upgrade them
-The neck is fast yet thick and the fretboard wide, favoring both fast slides and arpeggios, 22 frets
-Decent tuning stability
-Beautiful, maybe negligibly flawed, matte finish, with a body that is practical and comfortable despite its stylized shape
CONS
-Possible neck dives because of the light body vs the relatively long and thick neck
-The extended scale needs some getting used to, which means that it will require the player to extend the fretting arm out further in almost every position, but tall players may not care or notice
-While versatile and great sounding, passive humbuckers wont replace the sound of single coils or active electronics with 5 EQ knobs, make sure its the tool you need
It was packaged nicely and delivered about three days ahead of schedule. All considered, it cost me just about under $100. I think its a perfect deal and would have no hesitation about buying it. Worst case scenario, you'll have a cheap platform to upgrade or even give away to someone who'd value it.
