First of all mine was 1.75 kg - not bad. It is not glossy, as the pictures may suggest - half matt.
The routing is quite tight. I installed noiseless pickups, that are usually deeper than regular ones and it was really difficult to install the pickguard.
Talking about the pickguard: not sure if it was the pickguard or the body issue: one screw was placed over the routed area where there's no wood.
I paired it with a Fender neck and that fit ok. All holes were predrilled: for neck, trem, claws, strap etc.
I'd prefered nitro but not distress finish. Unfortunately there's no choice and overall this is one of very limited options for a nitro body readily available
