An honest review - pretty darn good guitar!

I have been playing guitar for over 40 years and have always wanted a semi-hollow body to round out my collection. But for one reason or another, I never pulled the trigger. I finally did, and I am pretty happy with my choice. The overall fit and finish are nice. The binding is flawless. The fretwork is above average and the guitar plays really nicely. The Duncan-designed pickups read more are...not bad, actually. The overall tone is warm, round, and just BIG. I play in a power-pop trio where I am the only guitar player and I usually use a Strat or Tele. When using the DC at rehearsal this past weekend, our songs took on a whole new life. The DC filled out the spectrum better and as a result my parts carried more weight. I was pleasantly surprised. The hardware and electronics leave a little to be desired: the 3-way switch is too stiff and makes an audible "clank" when moving between positions, and the bridge saddles and screws are similarly stiff and feel as if the threads on the adjustment screws are either damaged or poorly cut. Ultimately, I think I going to replace pretty much all the hardware and electronics as they are the only weak points. I am generally happy with my purchase and would gladly recommend this guitar to anyone looking for a semi-hollow body electric at a consumer-friendly entry point.
