This guitar has one of the best fretboards that I have ever played. I found the Infinity pickups to a bit muddy and dull, so I replaced them with a set of Seymour Duncan TB4 ans SN2. This really brought the guitar to life, made it very versatile and is to this day one of my favorite guitar. Also it is very light height, which makes nice to play live.
