Advantages: great tone, superb action Disadvantages: None
screws on the tuners, two of them were a bit slack. They are unbranded tuners which look a lot like Wilkinsons.
The pickup is a bridge mounted open faced humbucker which delivers a powerful tone that totally belies the diminutive body mass. For such a small body the resonance and sustain is remarkable and the volume and tone controls are totally noise free.
