    As a life long Lifeson and Rush fanatic, I really enjoyed this review. You really did capture the essence of so many Rush ‘nuggets’ across the decades. Kudos!

    You're a class act and a hell of a player, Richard. Keep up the great work!

    A well-presented demo of the guitar and a very tasty tribute track in honour of Lerxst! Thanks, Richard!

    Enjoyed that and the closing piece had so many nods. It's a beautiful instrument and very pleased to see Epi giving southpaw players some attention too

      Yes definitely! Ive always wanted Alex Lifesons Guitar specifically his LP with a Floyd, and then they finally released this in left handed! I ordered one last week!

    The lead done at the end is the best I have heard yet for showcasing this guitar and its FR whammy. Kudos and nice playing!

    You can install an R3 nut, which has narrower spacing and the proper 12 inch radius. Necessary for playing Spirit of Radio

    Just bought one. Love the sound, feel and the tone options of the guitar. The only thing that I don't like about the guitar is the gold hardware in which I will be replacing to chrome. It's just my personal preference. Other than the gold color hardware, it is an awesome guitar!

    After seeing this video, I made the decision to pull the switch and buy this guitar! Other guys just didn't display this guitar and it's capabilities and succinctly as you delivered them. I subscribed to your channel as well! Thanks for that!
    I was wondering if you do an update on this guitar if you could suggest how one goes about changing the strings? The Trem and locking nut make that nearly impossible without some sort of tensioner at the headstock.... I tune the guitar perfectly, then when I apply the locking nut, the fine tuners at the bridge do not have the range to dial it back in... Applying and locking down the nut raises the pitch high and you have to literally guess where to call it tuned (as much as a step down) to get it right before locking her down. Any ideas anyone?

    I went to my local long and mcquade music store to look at one of these. Your video made it look amazing. They actually hadnt taken it out of the shipping box yet. The sales guy unpacked it and took it out of a very nice case. First impression was wow! After a closer look the bindings on the fret board was really bad, looked like the tech dressing the side of the frets did a whoops and cut into the bindings in a number of spots. there were scratch's on the finish and fingerprints all over it. Maybe its a B stock unit, who knows but i past on it.Sad really had the cash for it as well.

      That’s a shame. The only (slight) issue I had with the guitar was the nut spacing. The binding and finishing was excellent 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Richard, please put out another album. The world awaits. ;-)

    Step IN to the limelight with this guitar, but DON'T fly by night, unless you're finding your way...

    I want to like this, but there’s just no sweetness to any of the tones. These pickups are ALL business. I suppose I could just swap them out.
