Six strings, some frets, and two pups. I'm not sure what other "features" you could want on a guitar... but the Bigsby is great. I bought this used and only had to adjust the setup slightly for thicker strings. I have gigged without a backup. -2 picks for ugly as hell pickguard (which I removed). Better build and sound quality than I would expect for under $300 This is my favorite guitar that I own. This is only partly because it is the only guitar that I own. The neck isn't fast by any means, but if you're not into wanton shredding, that's not a problem. It feeds back the lows very nicely if you want it to. Also, downtuning turns it into a whole new beast.
