Thanks. Roasted ash
 
Congrats! Shape looks way better in your pics than it does in their virtual guitar builder.

Definitely. I have built one of these online and I always change my mind when I'm close to pulling the trigger. Now I kinda regret not grabbing one.

Interesting... how does the shape look off to you in the builder?

Your pics look more like a Soloist-type shape. The builder looks... weird. Like the body is too big and the horns are spread too far apart and too narrow.

Got it... It is probably because the pickup/bridge placement in the builder is not 100% accurate to how it is in real life. So it might make your eyes perceive the body differently.

are these foreign built? price range? playability?

Korea or China depending on the level. Few different luthiers in Korea depending on whether you get a select vs. a select custom.

I debated on pulling the trigger on one for almost two years & just grabbed one a couple months ago. It's become one of my favorite guitars. Fit to finish, craftsmanship, playability & tone is superb. It's right up there as with my Mayo.
