From reviews it seems to be a top rocker. (as in good, not necessarily for rock)

I forgot that I had had one of them in my 'GAS - Guitars sold' list!  I liked it but it wasn't a Les Paul, and I got offered a good deal on a 72 SG Standard (which I also forgot about!), so I traded it.  I found the neck a bit too small for what I like, but the guitar was well made and didn't have a bad sound.  It was about a 73/74 guitar, so I don't know if the new ones have changed anything.
