Nope. but i too have read the reviews and they seem pretty good.

I have one of the washburn LP "Lawsuit" copies, WP-80.

Bought it for $200 in a pawn shop a few yeas ago and other than the (IMO) somewhat weak PU's, it's a really nice guitar. I've been just too busy with my now 1 year old to swap them out to make this gtr a monster.

It looks like this: http://fr.audiofanzine.com/img/produits/audiofanet/normal/3/0/30078.jpg

But black with gold hardware & PU covers.

My point for bringing it up is that the cheap LP copy can be done and can still be a very nice instrument.

I�ll check out the soapbars and see if I like them and if not, out they go.

My time table got pushed back since my wife�s b-day/holiday present was about double the price of what I thought it would be�..

ya i actually got it December 24. it is visually stunning and the sound is incredible.

the bad part. its uncomfortable as hell. the past few years ive been playing strat type bodies that have CONTOURED bodies. but i think full body binding is worth having sharp edges on my arm.

Strato - no issues with the nut and tuneing? That's the one negative thing I have heard about them...

hey zesty. the tuning and nut are perfect. it actually has Grover tuners which are good quality for stock. the only problem i had was the volume pot which was defective so i replaced it..ive had it for almost 2 weeks and the color/finish still strike me
