In the guitar shop today, I tried a GV Rock in matte black and an Expert Classic Rock in Marie-Antoinette blue (in pictures I always thought it was a glossy blue, but it's actually matte - still very nice).
I played it through a Bad cat head + 2x12 bad cat cabinet - I don't know which model). The Expert Classic Rock really sounded great with distortion, but the clean sound was heavenly to my ears. I chose the Expert Classic Rock - it's THE ONE.
I also think the neck is quite different from the Supra even though they have necks described as 'D shape'. The expert neck is rounder + thicker which I prefer.
The trem arm doesn't wobble so much  when I have it loose in the socket compared with the supra.
The vigier bag is very nice and feels sturdy. 
I let my son try it out when I got home.

The differences you noticed in the neck shape and feel between the Expert Classic Rock and the Supra are interesting,Retro Bowl College especially since they’re both described as having a D shape.
