This is John Robson demo-ing a plastic guitar. I have this guitar now.
I've been curious about alternative material guitars for a long time (I briefly had a hybrid Flaxwood).
The guitar was auctioned and I put in the winning bid. I received this late last week. The bid goes to a children's charity.
I agree with John's assessment. It has surprising sustain. I've never experienced sustain like it. TBH, its a bit too much for me.
Cons: Its ugly.
It neck dives (a bit).
Pros: It plays beautifully. It has fine tones. I use neck pickups almost exclusively, and yes, it has a 'woody' tone.
It does indeed have Grover tuners. The neck is exactly as I like; fairly flat, with a wide fingerboard and not too thick.
I will keep a check on the stability, but I expect it to be solid all year long.
Now my curiosity has been satiated I will use the Switch for a recording I have in mind. I may take it to a gig at some point this year, if only for a couple of songs.
Plastic works!
