You have to try it out. I rave about Yamaha guitars because I like them, but that's still just my opinion. And Yamaha has very good quality control, but that doesn't mean that every model is going to be one that you want to own. Guitar selection should be made with your ears and mind open, and your eyes shut!

Having said that...

The body contours look comfortable. I like the control placement. One thing that made my Strat such a bitch to play was the volume knob sitting so close to the bridge that I kept fragging my knuckles on it. This Yamaha locates the master tone and volume pots well out of the way. The neck looks to be fairly wide at the nut, which makes it easy to play open chords. And Seymor Duncan pickups have a good reputation, although that doesn't necessarily mean that you'll like this particular pair.
