The tone is bright and edgey in the bridge and very full in the neck. Output is on the high side and edge of breakup amps will sound even more distorted than usual.
Important note, there's no tone knob. There are two volume knobs. You can blend the volumes in middle position, but you're full tone all the time. Also the volume rolled all the way down is off, but just the tiniest bit of volume and you have a lot signal very quickly. I spend most my time playing at 7 or 8 volume to take some of the intensity off and switch to 10 for high gain playing.

I used to have one of these, and it played and sounded great but I did not care for the 2 volume setup, ndepaulos comments above are spot on about how they work.
Still, very solid deal and a great guitar that stands out nicely against a sea of Strats and Teles.
HT to a comment in the other thread for the AL40P where someone spotted the in-cart discount.
