I am considering some of the offerings from Rondo, and am curious to hear what some here can say about the neck on their SSTs and other SX models.

Finish, size (small hands!), fretwork..?

BTW, this is part of my search for a {low-cost} affordable, comfortable P90 growl, (hard tail?)... suggestions welcome!!

Edit: changed low-cost to affordable.
I can afford more, actually, but as a beginner, I am very self-conscious about spending over my skill level... just the way I am... is there a way to cure this disease..?
