NGD: My FIRST NEW EBMM! Cutlass HSS

[edhalen]

I took delivery of this beauty a week ago. It is an absolute joy to play! What a way to go with my very first NEW EBMM guitar! The the fit and finish are perfect. Neck, perfect. Fretboard with SS frets, perfect. Weight and balance, perfect. Tuning stability, perfect. Trem - smooth as silk and solid as a rock - even with divebombs, perfect. The tonal variety between the HB and single coil pick ups, perfect. The neck profile is VERY similar to my SBMM JV60. Pretty much the same shape with just a little less "beef" if you will.

I have owned quite a few different MM's over the past 5 years and moved them all for one reason or another. This one isn't going anywhere. It's classic looks and sound are perfect for me. It's a perfect fit. On to the pics:

NICE! That's a great look! Is the vibrato on that set to dive only, or is there a bit of up pull room?
