dammit... after reading this thread I think I have to get one too. I'd been looking for a slightly more unique guitar to get my hands on, and the idea of something that'd be a mashup between a Strat and a Tele (my two favorites so far) with a slightly smaller body... right up my alley. And for under 500 made in the USA?
Welp.. goodbye tax return.

I'll keep you all posted if I end up pulling the trigger.

i used to have e red lead I , the pickup was actually more powerful than a dimarzio super distortion ,the neck really good ,the switching options were useful too ,the only thing i didnt like was the body shape ...

neat?  junk?  I don't know...  I'm not bidding in any case.

I think this looks kinda cool, apart from the fact that it's flaking off. Maybe if it was resealed with some clear it would be pretty good.
