Citizenraised should know, I've played it at a shop. Sounds nice and plays well too.

I didn't play it for very long, for about 15 minutes while the manager was finding a Taylor 314 for me to play (i'm good friends with the manager) but I would say I like it.

15 minutes should be long enough to know if you like that curved radius or not.

I just purchased this guitar. On first impression, it plays just like a 60s classic telecaster. After a little research, I learned that this makes sense as the guitar is based on the same specs as the 60s classic. The pickups have just the right amount of twang. The neck is fast; but I don't really care for the high-gloss neck - I may have to use some steel wool or a scotch-brite to get rid of the sheen. Neck radius is fine. The specs state that the frets are "vintage". I'm not sure what that means, but they feel the same as the medium jumbos on my other telecaster. Intonation seems to be spot-on. Visually, the guitar is absolutely beautiful, far nicer than the pictures I have seen. Overall, I am very happy with this guitar.
