i have done all I can do to set up the neck. I adjusted trussrod and got it playing level and very low. i even took neck off and reinstalled it and allowed it to resettle. I adjusted the two point term system to free floating system, setup like Jeff Beck uses. I have still got non stable tuning issues, I suspect those cheap locking tuners. Why at this guitar price don’t they have locking Ghoto or Sperzel tuners? Regarding playability and finger pain, this is just a combination of ebony and hard metal frets. I bought it online so had no chance to feel how it played before purchase. I would never have bought it in a shop for sure, because it plays rotten. Other issues like the poor weak characterless sound of the pickups are just down to the selection of cheap parts at manufacture. In comparison to any cheap Stratocaster on sale this models pickups places it in the sub 150$ category guitar price range. I have purchased an over hyped piece of junk. I ask why have so many players like Jennifer Batten changed the pickups and neck. it is because they are not useable. What is Line6 going to do about this product sold to me to rectify the problems?

I am dissapointed by this guitar. The ebony neck is painful to play and the frets hurt my fingers, like a cheap crap guitar. The earlier models like the 700 were so much better finished and set up. The overall design and construction of the guitar looks like a cheap student model worth just 100$. Looks like it was made like Peavey Raptor junk guitar. see pic But the poor playabilty and feel of the neck is the big issue together with lousy tuning stability. This guitar could be so good but the poor quality build lets it all down. I will need to replace neck with one with a real good feel, this guitar is badly made and built to cheap specs with a bad neck set up. A budget guitar with a pro price. RIP-OFF ! After paying so much for this guitar, I feel cheated. Line 6 has always been ready to gouge money from customers, since Yamaha nothing has changed.
