Value For Money : Excellent
- In which country was it made? (USA, Japan, Mexico, France ...)
Guitar made in (its only real negative point) China.

- What are the settings (volume, tone, micro switch ...)?
not complicated: a knob volume, a knob tone

- How many frets, what kinds of microorganisms and their configuration?
21 frets, mini humbucker, no special config

- What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...)?
Maple bridge

- What kind of stick?
Mahogany / Continental touch

and then he must still add the resonator:
Cone: 9.5 "Aluminum

UTILIZATION

- The handle is it nice?
rear, very nice. C, the painted sticks.
front, flat handle (normal: it is a guitar for the blues and thus capable of receiving a bottleneck)

- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
despite the resonator is not so heavy as that, its center of gravity is perfectly positioned,

- Access to acute (last string) Is it easy?
yes. The cutaway allows to get high on the handle.

- Do you get easily a good sound?
acoustics would really like a scratch calibrated for not having a good sound ... and electric is connected and immediately we have what we want

SOUNDS

- Are they suitable for your style of music?
I bought this guitar not to play a particular style but above all to the sound (especially electric), and I have not one but several styles of music and then: yes. the unique sound of this guitar suits me perfectly.

- What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
my favorite is still the sound it produces saturated. She has a great acoustic sound and amplified sound clear, but in saturated ... is enjoyable ...

OVERALL OPINION

- For how long have you been using it?
I have since September 2009

- Did you try many other models before getting this one?
I have tried her twin sister (another brand but with a lipstick microphone) that I have been tested only acoustic and I had already been packed by the sound of resonator guitars.

- Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
without any hesitation. mini humbucker rounded and makes warmer sound of the resonator which gives a generally crystalline.

- What thing do you like most/least about it?
most: the sound in saturated ... and then she has the face ...
the least: the fact that it comes from China (I do not know if it is the blues in Chinese ...)

- What is your opinion about the value for the price?
excellent value for money.

its only real flaw is that it is quite difficult to find
