Here is a quick review of this new SBS guitar. First off, after a string change, quick fret polish, neck adjustment and bridge height adjustment, this is a killer guitar for the price! I wasn't a fan of the strings that came with the guitar so I had to get rid of them. Also, the neck felt wet... it's weird. I don't know why, but it felt like there was a funky film on it. No idea. I hit it with some 0000 steel wool and it smoothed it right out.
Here are some pics and a quick clip. I might need to raise the pickups a bit and mess with the action as the guitar was fighting me a little in this clip. Please disregard the pajama pants and sloppy playing.

I didn't know about these. I really like the look, and the tone in your clip sounds great! What a steal for the price! HNGD!

That's a great looking guitar. I wasn't aware of it. GFS makes some cool stuff for the money.
Great playing too!!!!
I am going to check them out. Might pick one up eventually.

Some ambiguous wording on their website:
Solid Flamed Maple with "Roasted" finish
I think it's a stain to make it look roasted or they would just say roasted maple neck. Whatever it is, it looks good.
