I ordered a Dragon Fruit SE Silver Sky from John Mann's Guitar Vault on release day. It shipped last week and was supposed to be here last Friday. After a quick joke of the weather map I was sure there would be a delay in shipping. Sure enough, Friday afternoon check of UPS Tracking showed a delivery delay with no ETA available. Saturday morning it showed out for delivery. I was anticipating the normal UPS delivery window, for my neighborhood, between 4 and 6. Surprisingly, it showed up at 11 in the morning. It got a full 24 hours to acclimate cuz it was cold cold cold.
It's a great guitar. Nothing fancy. It does all of the Strat sounds, very well. I like the neck. It's nice and smooth, and the frets are well done. No sharp edges. John and his team did a great job going over it before shipping. Always a pleasure to deal with John and Roxanne and their team.
My only complaint, as it is with any guitar that has this..........the stupid plastic that goes over the pickguard! I hate that stuff. It's impossible to get it all off. There's always a little piece that tears and gets stuck under a screw, or knob. I know, first world problem.
Here are a couple of indoor pics (cuz winter). And a pic with my Panther Pink Pia just for color comparison. I'd recommend the SE SS to anyone looking for a great S type guitar. Definitely worth it.
