Made in japan
The body is ash, rosewood fingerboard (excellent this wood!) And the maple neck (24 frets so screwed way to change it without worry if you do not like!)
Pink Floyd moose (I replaced the pink floyd one of Godin as the former was too rusty)
2 Seymour Duncan humbuckers Humbucker Jazz Model SH2-SH4-level bridge and Jeff Beck at the handle.
2 volume and tone knob selector 5 positions
Purple with some black patterns.
Pins are mother of pearl button as it has been said above written with ESP at 12th fret.

What can I say? nothing is perfect level feature!

UTILIZATION

The handle is a pure delight. Seriously, my little hands tremble at every slip of the handle end and sweet. Believe me, I own several guitars and really, this one is by far the more enjoyable with my Hohner soulpick.

Access to acute is very easy. To chain solos etc ... there is something to have fun without getting his hands to twist shit anyhow. it just comes to the 24th frets lool

Stratocaster form nothing more classic but the wood is beautiful .. it's crazy the guitar is beautiful on this side of the more silly is very light but is heavier than my hohner soulpick so there is always lighter as my dear colleague described before.

The guitar is versatile serious. not need to put 10 rods to find the ideal sound is incredible!

SOUNDS

Its level, the HS-2 produces a great sound for jazz clean highly recommended to play it clean .. In disto hard anyway, it gives a bit more distortion a draft that the SH4 but with a little more punch.
The SH-4 is perfect for the overdrive, distortion, very clean ideal for metalheads nag and I do not know what! I love the splitter 2 microphones, I often play alone and with the sh2 position 4 just before the sh-4 always gives me the sound I'm looking for.

This guitar is super versatile, you can play any genre. Everyone says that the ideal configuration is 2 humbuckers + single microphone in the middle. Playing with the scraper, I completely changed my mind. Can be fun to put in or change the humbucker, but the guitar has a soul. I will not touch it for the world; p!!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for nine months, as you see I fell in love!
I own a Gibson Les Paul, SG, even fenders, ibanez upscale and frankly, I never left. I found my happiness!

After spending over 20 hours to renovate (refrettage, cleaning, changing strings and setting all the mess!), It has become like new. the wood held up this shows the huge quality qi and the handle is always nikel. the guitar has stayed 10 years in an attic with all the dirt .. But what a stroke of luck to have fallen over!
it hurts the heart to stop using my other guitars but that's p

If I could have only one guitar, this one is bah! see 3 like that lool

I keep an adviser HOHNER PICK SOUL is monstrous value for money you can find in OCCAZ 150euros. This is my second favorite;)

Quality / price ratio, how to say bah ... I had to rinse at all! she slept in the attic but if you want to buy it new it is in 2000 dollars! but if I had money, I will have taken direct.

Only negative: color. I only like the dark but good to force it became the most beautiful p
