SOUNDS

I have no style, I'm trying to play beginners and a little of everything.
I bought it bundled with the Marshall MG10CD.
Easily obtained sounds very fat, especially on the bridge pickup is good for trs rock, mtal, hard.
The crystalline sounds seem impossible with this combination, the micro as simple low. In his clear, it is closer to a folk guitar as a Telecaster!
When using the Overdrive channel of the amp must rgler the volume on the guitar at a low trs, otherwise the gain potentiomtre Submitted do no more shade and it's a quick n ' get a spray of sound.
Apart from the lack of crystalline sounds, I like the sounds you can get and go from blues to mtal condition to treat some rglages possible!
Added 09/05/2007: I replaced the microphone by a single central GFS 5.55K Alnico Boutique Start Pickup $ 17.95 (22 pounds), and it is day and night, even Marshall on the poor! The original single is really nonexistent, even by changing its height. With it, has still less powerful than the humbuckers, but what a sound!, Making two double bland. Conclusion: we will have to change too!
Added 11/11/2007: I replaced the neck pickup with a GFS Vintage 59 and the bridge pickup with a GFS Crunchy Paf. Miracle! The clean channel of Marshall 10CD is perfectly usable, with a nice range of sounds, and the Overdrive channel, you can push more volume of the guitar before reaching the boiling sound links the "quality quot; of this amp! trs For a price reasonable, it is possible to eliminate the main default of this guitar's pickups (default pool all the guitars cheap. Highly Nol replace (may be) this amp (for the price of the pack, you can not expect any more of the same, and can Get You Started inexpensive when you're not sure of Necessary for attendance have persvrer)
Added 06/01/2008: Does the Marshall replaced by a Hughes and Kettner Edition Blue 60DFX. On the clean channel (high point of this amp), the guitar sounds really nice trs, trs crystalline highs. Vintage 59 in the handle is fully expressed, it became my prfr. Trs difficult to believe that it is costing a guitar so cheap (169 pack original 76 for about three microphones pounds).

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using ending for two months. (Added 11/11/07: 5 months of use)
I like to finish (well compared to the price sr), his contact trs enjoyable, and I do not regret that his incapacit (links mine?) Produce sounds crystal.
Without great exprience, I find his pickup bluffing. (Added 11/11/07: indeed, it is virtually the only original user)
I had the hands that Squier Affinity before this one and frankly, I'd compare it srieusement because the Whale seems to me far above, for a price far below.
The quality-price ratio dcoiffant:
Guitar, bag, amp, cable of 3 meters, mdiators, mthode (very well done, with cd), all for 169. What fun and dj be able to get an ide to give more passion beginners.
With exprience, I do it again the same choice for the budget, if not a hundred dollars more, I'll see Yamaha!
Edit of 06/01/2008: not even! I do it again the same choice after all. For the GFS pickups coupled with Hughes and Kettner Entire give satisfaction, and overall the budget is reasonable trs. It's really the guitar, once modified, which allows to learn and go on enough to afford the guitar of his dreams.
