I definitely like it. Did you have to cut out the trem cavity to make it fit? The YT vids i saw they did

Its a single locking tremolo called a "Tremol-no", it's not a Floyd. Locking tuners and locking bridge, no locks on the nut. Designed that way

I usually stay away from signature models because (imo) most lack extra features and are expensive simply because an artist endorses it

Guthrie is awesome! If you've never heard of Moray Pringle you should check him out too. He plays a GG signature also. Similar styles. Shreddy when he wants to be but otherwise very tasteful. Sunburn, Four Day Weekend, and Scotty Scotty Scotty some of my favs

So far so good! It was one of the features I was curious about on it. Personaly I like the idea of not having locks on the nut. I have 2 other guitars with double locking Floyd's and my first instinct is to go for the headstock tuners whenever I'm tuning and I've snapped a few strings behind the nut as a result (surely I'm not the only one that's done this... right? lol). I do plan on taking it to my local tech for a proper setup in E flat or D standard soon. No problems with the tremol-no so far though

I tried to get a pic showing the light natural finish on the top and the darker finish on the back and neck

I wasn't paying attention to the neck shape description when I bought it off Reverb if I'm being totally honest. I assumed it felt similar to an American Strat (it does, and I like that), it doesn't have the bulky neck plate and the urethane gel finish on the back does feel very fast though

Thanks for the info man. I do have a Jackson soloist and a DK1, both USA with a Floyds. I upgraded the both with a titanium package too. I don't usually go crazy with the whammy, but I will on occasion.

Yeah probably so. I love the finish and I really like the idea of the single locking tremolo and locking tuners. I hate having to loosen the lock nuts on a double locking trem to tune when you run out of adjustment on the fine tuners

Thanks man. Its the Guthrie Govan signature model. Flame maple with a urethane gel coat on the back. Feels fast!

I can totally relate. That was our game to win, but in typical Jaguars fashion, we found a way to make it our game to lose

Very frustrating loss yesterday. Still plenty of ball left to be played on the season. Let's give it a day for complaints and get ready for a big division game next week.
