Fit & finish kicks the butt off the Standard however big time!!! Also, my pup selector switch on the Elitist seems to pop into the center position from either the bridge or neck position easy.
My standard plays about as well as the Elitist it seems too. What I hear is a more chimmy, brighter ring & more sustain from the standard vs the Elitist. I don't drink or smoke anything so we can't blame that. But, when playing along w/ Beatles tunes, I believe the Standard Casino sounds more Beatles like than the Elitist does. I love the fit, feel, & look of the Elitist. I've now had my Elitist 1965 Casino for a couple of weeks & would like some constructive feedback from other users & their thoughts/impressions.
