    I've had this guitar for about a year. It's difficult to find orange guitars, and mine is pretty orange (to match my Neon Orange Jackson bass), so there is that. But the guitar plays wonderfully, and has survived many a 'purging' (although at $159, what am I really going to get for it used?). I have a $75 Harley Benton Strat that is so bad, it sits on the wall as 'art' rather than being played. This Redid sits in a $200 case. While the pickups are fine as is, I'm planning on upgrading them to some Seth Lover PAFs. At that point, it will be my main guitar on Orange night ( when I play out, I have Orange, White, and Black nights; with my basses and guitars matching in color. Yes, I switch between key,s, guitar, and bass depending on the song. What can I say; I'm a child of the 80s).
    In the end though ( since this comment had more meandering than Biden after a carb heavy meal), I love my Redid - which I affectionately call 'The 159'.

    Right off the bat I am troubled by the string alignment. Freeze at the 1:40 mark. Notice how close the high E string is to the edge of the fingerboard and then compare that to the distance from the edge of the fingerboard for the low E string. Way off.
    The bridge was not put on properly and cannot be " moved " over to compensate. You run the risk of the high E string being pulled off the edge unless you are very careful. Deal breaker for me.

Some people think there shredding playing with alot of distortion and think boy I'm shredding and sound great! Lol. You played great and very tastefully. You were shredding the guitar was not but it sure did sound good plucking them Strangs.. I'm looking to have one myself and add to my tiny guitar collection. I'm 45 and a Beginner on a budget.

I'm looking at the red Best choice guitar same as yours also the Red Grote and orange Redid 335 style as there all about the same price could you recommend one or the other of those?
