I just purchased a Magnum D-10 and just want to say that I'm totally blown away by the sound and playability of this guitar. This guitar is made very precise, was easy to change to my setup and sounds like a million bucks and plays very true.

Hey Bob, howdy to you. Yeh, this guitar surprised me. I play push pulls and even though it don't match the push pull tone, it gets really close. The real test will be when we play out tonight to see how it holds up with a band. I bought another brand guitar about two years ago and it sounded decent at home, with the band just wouldn't cut it so will find out tonight. Was really skeptical of how it would play and look but very satisfied so far.

| It must be an epidemic! I got a Magnum D10 about 10 days ago and love it! It appears to be very well made and sounds great through my Vox Valvetronix amp. |

Gig went good, guitar played really good. It doesn't have the bite that my push pull does but not many guitars do. I say thumbs up, great playing and sounding guitar.
