How to choose
Deciding on the ML1 comes down to trying the neck feel and finish in person if you can.
Beginner
A newer electric guitar player picking up the ML1 should spend time getting comfortable with its shape and weight before worrying about tone shaping. Keep it on a stand or wall mount rather than leaning it against furniture, and wipe the strings after playing to slow corrosion.
Intermediate
A player upgrading from a starter guitar will notice the ML1's playability through faster passages and different playing positions. Get the guitar set up and intonated by a technician if it has not been done since purchase, and rotate strings regularly for consistent tone.
Expert
An experienced guitarist may use the ML1 as a stage or studio guitar suited to modern rock and metal styles. Keep the frets and fretboard maintained, check neck relief seasonally, and store the guitar in stable humidity when not being played.
