Okay so when I got home from my first Covid shot the box was on the back porch. I let it sit for about 2 hours to get to room temperature gradually.

Aesthetically this thing is beautiful. What looks like inlays top and bottom are actually recesses with textured plastic in the recesses. I haven't plugged it up yet but at first blush this guitar will be a bit of a challenge for me. I have very strong, thick hands but relatively short fingers, and the neck on this thing is a bit thick for my hands. I will adapt as I get used to it, and there isn't even a strap on it yet so I was also supporting it with my fretting hand as I strummed chords for 5 minutes. The body is thin enough that I will be able to reach it, and it really is gorgeous to look at. The analogy here is that 3.0 was also really good looking, and we know how THAT worked out... More tomorrow.
