First impressions on the Mondial. Just having tried it out this past Sunday and buying it as well. My god, it rocks! First of all it looks freakin cool. Second of all im digging the sorta feel it has, it's like a cross between an 335 and a LP-style guitar, you really do get a lot of tone options but the guitar actually sings when you play it even unplugged. The top is made out of some fiberglass plastic thing composite but it's not a bad looking composite and it really does project some great acoustics out of the guitar because of that. Having the two outputs jacks, one a piezo and one a line guitar, really makes your option open up with what you can do with it. All in all a great guitar for the price. Too bad I can't touch it again til X-mas!!
some noteable features:
Gotoh tuners which really keep the guitar in tune.
Wilkinson Pickups which sound deep rather than really harsh bright, they are beefy monsters.
Big ass straplocks so that you don't lose your strap and they won't fall off.
Really fast playing neck and soft neck, which I love, cause I myself has the wimpy fingers of a child as well.
