UTILIZATION

The handle is far from being "impressive" as I have read elsewhere, on the contrary I have a strat us highway 2001, and is the same type of handle, as far to say that I found myself as home with the Jeff Beck very comfortable.
Access to acute, easy and convenient.

SOUNDS

Well then there is the heavy ..
When I read some reviews claiming that the guitar lacks character, I smile ...
what interest to buy a signature model?
this guitar sounds great with a pick, but it delivers its full potential with the finger-picking. Jeff Beck is indeed an expert and pick the game without the microphones were calibrated accordingly, and as such, the bridge pickup is a model of its kind, since I have this guitar, I also abandoned the pick, it has a micro-edged character, round, single .. in one word "beautiful", in clear sound in saturated, this microphone "sings" is the first time in my life that I fall in love with a microphone guitar! inevitably, when you buy this strat signature is also for this approach the "sound" of the master ..
Well here it is ...
The 2nd advantage of this guitar is the "fantastic" vibrato, it can drop and pull of 1 ton to 2 tons and a half ... it makes perfect agreement, even by triturating in every sense, it is particularly sensitive to the slightest caress, the slightest nuance. Much less restrictive than the "BIG" Floyd Rose block.

OVERALL OPINION

In conclusion, this stratum is played every nuance in the image of the hypersensitive vibrato is a treat in hand, and in my humble opinion, should be practiced as it is, to reveal its character, its very substance ...
course, it can also be played with a pick, but it's like a formula to pay for a ride on country roads ...
Beyond, I do not see too much interest to pay a signature model?
