Long story short, I decided to get one of these from Thomann, since they offer free return + refund. The guitar arrived in Athens Greece in just 4 days. Here's what we have. The high E string was broken - no big deal of course. The headstock has 2 tiny chips. The real issue that I see is the fretboard. It seems that this "ebony" fretboard has some paint residue or sth. It really is disappointing as this is supposed to be a brand new guitar, not a stock B unit.
It plays nice - the pickups sound ok - but overall I am kinda unimpressed so it's going back. I am not a guitar expert but I do know that this doesn't seem to be real ebony. I've played some cheap guitars that come with ebony and they felt amazing. I am not gonna compare it to my Jackson Soloist / ESP because there are high quality guitars. Anyway, amazing as this color might look, I aint keeping this guitar.
