Guitar type "high end" for a reasonable budget (6000F in 93)
Manufacturing Canada: it's srieux
trs bne handle end button (not chic?) trs discrete taken on the section that adds a class indniable ct. Table birds eyes: it can be bought to hang on the wall: it is a work of art!
Wilkinson Bridge (DIFFERENT from that in the photo that seems to be a floyd): dual (flexible when used, when fixed Release the pin that locks when the Systm) simple and clever: we can finally be just double bend without giving up the vibrato!
three microphones "hot rails" type duncan Godin signs (these are the same)

UTILIZATION

Channel super comfortable. It's the easiest I've used (with one of my Vigier) is fine, soft to the touch and tough alloy frets (hardly uses in 12 years) with acute CHAC is correct, the bead is refined towards the palm, but still a 22 cases (24 cases one loses what it gains in its Accessibility assistive technology software)
The guitar is relatively lgre, the buttons are well disposs (less prs strings that strato)
Unlike other notice placed on this site, I am excited about the vibrato! It is extremely stable, and fixing the bridge at rest is more indniable. However, this mcanique of precision requires a long time rglage, do it with patience and attention to detail ...

SOUNDS

So the must be clear: there is more strat stamp in a classic Fender even if the register is the scope of this instrument. In between, the power is impressive (almost teachers: I use my Carvin between low lights to avoid saturating light) The spectrum is wide: bass and treble are Submitted. In saturated trs is convincing, jazzy singing and happy (not so far from Gibson as a) sustain, more than enough, we clearly moves away from the twang and vintage. Splitter can be in the single-coil pickups by pulling on the knob of Tone. We then approach a single coil sound like ssl1 but more acidic. Its so smooth and modern. I put 9 because of a lack of characters that is the price of the versatility ...

OVERALL OPINION

Less than 1000 euros is a bargain. We are in the high end. This guitar has no complex or do about Tom Anderson Valley Arts. It is a quality manufacturing irrprochable. You can do anything with, but she keeps a modern orientation in the sound. A truly beautiful object that almost take on hsite scne!
