as stratocaster players would always say: 6 strings and 21 frets already so hard to create solos, why make things more difficult by adding so many frets? :lol:
anyway that model kinda reminds me of Kiko Loureiro's signature model, which by the way is too friggin expensive. this would be a good alternative yeah. also, I kinda agree that the visuals on this guitar are very stunning indeed.
