Got a New Guitar

Sort of. I finally got round to buying this off of Reece. I ought to thank him for the saint-like patience he has shown to me in this, as I originally registered interest some six months ago.
I really, really like it. It'll take a while to get used to the neck, which is slim and wide. Also, It's currently strung with a wound G, which I think I might change, and give it a full set up.
I really like the satin finish, which I totally wasn't expecting. I thought it'd be all glossy, but I like this finish, as it stops me worrying about it maybe looking cheesy (which it might, if it were glossy). I love the wooden pickguard, I think that's classy as fuck.
Reece has put a GFS Mean 90 in the bridge of this. I plan on putting P-Rails in it eventually, but I'm tempted to get the neck Mean 90 in the meantieme, and then when I switch to P-Rails I can put that set of 90's into my DeArmond M-60.
Unfortunately I don't have an amp here at the minute, so proper demoing will have to wait.
