Just picked it up yesterday.
Light ash and great D neck with compound radius!
I wasn’t sure of the pickups choice, but they turned out to be a really well balanced set: moderately hot bridge (texas special), bright and clear middle (56) and juicy neck (59). S1 switch seems to add bridge to some positions but I am not sure yet)
I was always fond of 57 reissues but wasn’t really happy with 57/62 pickups, this one is a head over as for me, still a vintage reissue but with more balls!
And I love this neckplate!
