The guitar played well straight out of the box. The team has done a pretty decent job on the setup. The documentation (for GST) etc was spot on. The SilverSky is easily a contender even for the some of the high-end S shape guitars out there - barring a few cosmetic things, the guitar is totally worth it at this price point. The changes I will make are:
Removing one of the 4 retainer springs on the tremolo. (Not sure about tuning stability after that, but from the various forums it seems like a workable solution to the tremolo being very hard to manipulate like it is right now although the tuning stability is superb)
Also have to check if the pickups can be swapped out for gen4 noiseless ones....they seem a tad noisier than the regular Fenders (to me). But that's again a "Welcome to the world of single coils" deal.
The Customer service desk is good to respond within the hour (Don't expect the same for lower value purchases, however!)
