This is the headless guitar I had been looking for - update
howardjworf@aol.com 20.03.2026
Quick review to begin with but now I have had this guitar for a few days and I have revise my rating downward - although despite the flaws I shall be keeping this instrument as my main tool for my guitar duo.
Why? I'm getting on a bit now, and hanging almost 4 kilos of super strat on my shoulder for a gig was starting to get very uncomfortable after a couple of hours. So I wanted something lighter.
Pros: Light, mostly well made and set up, usual Sire rounded edged neck (as on my Sire basses - my main instrument) so beautifully comfortable to play. Multiscale/fan frets are not in any way an issue. Intonation and neck relief perfect out of the box. Action is fine, personal taste, I have lowered it. Comes with one of the nicest gig bags I've seen. Sounds great, 5 position switch for the two humbuckers giving coil split in positions 2 and 4. High output for a passive instrument.
Cons: 4 stars for features and one annoying set up snafu - the jack socket is recessed so my Mooer radio transmitter can't be used. And neither can any other wireless bug style set - I have tried the different ones used by the guitarists in the band I play bass for and none of them fit. This is almost a deal breaker, but by using a patch lead and a 6.3mm female to female connector I can put the bug in my back pocket. IMO this is a serious design flaw, and absolutely unnecessary, just dumb. The body shape means that if you are careful it can just about be supported on a normal millenium e-guitar stand. My Hercules stands can't accommodate it. And the setup error is that the 20th fret is 'dead' - too high on the low E string. Hardly a place I am likely to play often, if at all, so more irritating than anything, now I know it's there.
Conclusion: plays and sounds great. Fabulously light and comfortable to both play and have hanging from your shoulder. The jack socket placement is maddening and unnecessarily recessed. I will change the strings soon, and when I do address the raised 20th fret.
