Made in China (yes ...).
For specifications, see the plug.

UTILIZATION

Handle very nice. Having been accustomed to typed sleeves "Strat" ​​I was a little worried. In fact, I am much more comfortable on the big, thick neck, including pass barred.

The weight is there, and there, but a good strap and password 2:00 repeats it turns ordeal. For cons, the cut is less comfortable sitting game a cut "Strat" ​​(my Cort X1, in this case).

The passage of the "Rhythm" mode to "Treble" exchange good sound, intermediate mode is downright useless in my opinion. Plugged into my Vox VT15 (Modeling), I had to revise all my settings but I immediately felt the difference: it sends. Whether or more highly saturated rock sounds, it is comfortable. For cons, the two settings sold as simulating the passage between the single and double coil ... It's just a tone control anything. But, used with the micro switch allows refining its sound (I say!)

SOUNDS

As mentioned above, wide range of use, but I think the beast very much at ease on saturated sound that clear.

I play at home on a Vox VT15, then, but I just invest in a Marshall G80R CD used for rehearsals. They seem to get along very well, but check when I finished testing the amp.

OVERALL OPINION

She has been there for a few weeks, but immediately supplanted my Cort X1: round, sounds (Gibson pickups 57 and 57 +, it helps) ... But I do still have the two volume knobs (one for each pickup), accessory which I had never been accustomed.

Never able to try it, she was out in all physical stores, so remote. But definitely not disappointed! I had set a maximum budget of € 500, and I for my money. I would have to try authentic Gibson to see (hear) if there is much difference than that.
