This is a good deal if you like the look. The Wolfgang humbucker is my favorite pickup of my 35-40 guitars. Have it on a Wolfgang special and a striped series.

It's a nitro finish so it'll wear in alright. I don't care for relic guitars generally. I have a Road Worn Strat that is a relic and it just feels nicely broken in. Likely similar feel here.

Bit at $799 a couple of months ago, and was able to request a $150 partial refund due to some issues, making it $650. Play times so far: zero. LOL

Also there is a plugin currently offering $15 back on top of the cash back. Those who know will know what I'm talking about.

The white looks good and that's what I got last time. Considering buying the black again. I'd avoid the red, just not my taste.

Right, it's more on the cream side. Some may even look yellowish due to relic. I like the contrast of the white, but you can't go wrong with either.

Pulled the trigger on the black too. 5.25% site CB + 5% Chase through PayPal + 3% PayPal CB = 13.25% CB.

Just bought this. The fretwork is horrible, very jagged, almost unplayable. I've never owned a "relic" guitar before but is this to be expected?

No. Exchange it.

I was gonna post the same. The black one I just received doesn't seem to have any fretwork properly done, truly unplayable. The white model I bought back in August came with smooth frets. I'm sending the black one back. Very disappointed.
