Welcome cityrat27-dude.

Yep, this is a very nice and cosy group of guitar nerds hanging around.
Expect to learn quite a few Mosrite secrets.

How's that Eastwood Hi-Flyer playing?

i have play many guitars.. fender strat, gibson les paul, epi les paul, ibanez RG, and The Johnny ramone signature by MJ,... and and and...

but non of this guitars had a so small neck-profile than the Hi-flyeR! thats great to play... all chords and notes grippen easy! u can play very fast with this neck!
the fabrication is really good... all bands are ocatve-clean and the edges are roundet!
the neck is glued and is a gibson mensure!
the mechanics are sensitive and from good parents!
the paint is also top!

the sound is a mix from the Les paul juinior (thinking at the billy joe armstrong modell) to a lil bit fender standart stratocoaster!

when you play distortion you get a lil bit humbucking ramones sound on a marshall-tube amp!
u know... with much overtones and still a good bass-basement when u play muted!
its not a guitar to play heavy metal but u can play a moderat gain-level with a acceptable interference grade! with a noisegate u can kill this hiss!

clean is also very good.. its sounds like mosrite! not more to say :)!

the only detriment were the P90 pickups... they startet early with microphonie!
but when u replace them or wax them u have no problem with them anymore!
i personally wax them cause i like the sound of this pickups and now they dont generate a unwated Feedback all the time!

sorry for my bad english but I´m an austrian..

dont wounder about the stickers! they are not original ;)

cheers!
