Great great guitars. The Redmond 2 is a great guitar, the speed loader system is good too if you like using a floyd.
Things o be aware of,

1.) the pickups, they are good ( especially the gold model ) but the do exactly the voicing they as they do, nothing more/less.
2.) the string, they are well available but there is only floyd rose who make them so if you don't like the feel or sound of them you are screwed. Dean Marley used to make them, but stopped so you have a limited availability second choice
3.) alternative tunings. Obviously no easy retuning but things like drop d are available but you have to change the string.

I'd have one of these again in a flash if I needed a floyd loaded guitar

I had one of Matt's redmonds great build quality lovely neck good pickups but shit choice of strings. I have got so used to the feel of elixir coated strings that I just hated the feel of the orrible floyd strings and had to sell it. Shame really as I would have kept it otherwise!
