G'day mate. I can highly, HIGHLY recommend Pitbull. The build quality is very good. As with all mass produced items, there can be some minor issues with build quality, but the service and backup from Adam and the crew is above and beyond any other company. I had an issue with the tuner holes on one build and they replaced the whole neck free of charge! They pride themselves on quality. Fret dressing has to be done on all builds, that's the nature of the beast. BUT the help from everyone in the forum will help with any other trouble you may encounter. It really is like one big family trying to help everyone do the best and enjoy the whole build from start to finish.
