Got myself an LTD Phoenix 1000 Evertune in silver sunset burst!
I wasn't planning on getting this guitar, in fact I wanted the Baritone 7 string but I couldn't find one in stock but Thomann did have this one and it got me thinking...could be cool... So I bought it and I really like it! Love my Phoenixes and this is definitely a unique one in terms of looks and features as well.
The Evertune is interesting for sure, I had never tried one prior to this but it obviously keeps the tuning and intonation very stable, which is great. IMHO it does have an impact on the tone which I'm not overly fond of but that's just the trade-off I guess. The Fishmans are fine too as per usual.
The fretboard had two cracks in it unfortunately. I could have sent it back but since I love this guitar so much I decided to fix that myself and now it's all good and the cracks are completely gone!
Here's a review video with some tones through my Powerball:
