I have a blue E-CY-165CTM. I live in the US and had to import it because there are no dealers here. It's the second favorite guitar I own. I have a video of it on my channel. My favorite guitar is a 1998 Purple Vigier Excalibur. The Vigier is by far the best guitar I have ever played in my life. It has bearings in the fulcrums of the Floyd Rose style locking tremolo bridge and nut. Because of the bearings the Vigier stays in perfect tune no matter how I abuse the tremolo, also I almost never have to tune it. The neck does not have a truss rod instead it has a10/90 neck system which features 10% carbon fiber in place of a traditional truss rod.
