I thought at first it would be similar to my Jackson Soloist that I've owned for 15 years - maple thru neck, alder body sides but this has the maple top. This actually sounds really fat, like a Les Paul with the sustain you'd expect from a neck thru. I suspect it's the thick Holdsworth neck. Clean tone it's very clean and present. I did a cheesy demo the first thing after I got the guitar home here http://madsound.dyndns.org/guitars/carvin/ST300_Demo.mp3

The swelled chords are on the bridge pickup with the tone all the way up and then I did some leads over the top. Not fast either - the tone of the guitar made me want to slow down and get to know it first.

Getting used to that 20" radius neck too, a little different than what I'm used to.

Killer looks. Must play beautifully

I'd never owned a guitar with stainless steel frets before and I'll definetely make sure that anything I have after this has them because it will totally spoil you.

Congrats on the guitar. I love, love, LOVE the Allan Holdsworth neck! Big and fat, but faster than a snake on ice. It's good to know that they'll offer that carve on non-Holdsworth guitars.

Beautiful guitar. Hope you have many happy years together.
