I have never owned another Strandberg so the neck took some time to get used to but it's easy to transition back to a regular guitar once you get used to it. My only gripe is that the pickups may be a little too high gain/muddy if you are playing something other than hard rock or metal. I considered replacing at least the neck pickup for this issue but you can also just turn down the volume and tone slightly and it works okay.
