Made in Korea. It's a beautiful instrument clearly dominant. 20 frets.

Team pramp a Fishman Prefix Premium SOB that includes a piezo transducer over a "real" microphone: NOTCH, volume Bass, Treble, Contour semi-Settings, phase switch and tuner Intgr. Balance between the pickups. Possibility to go out in mono and Stereo.

Trs full ... too?

Super beautiful and handle Rabl.

Finishing die for.

A little work on the t ncessaire nut so that it fits my game ... but I file the nut on almost ALL my guitars!

UTILIZATION

The handle is really easy, it glides on its own.

Access in acute is not the best of the best and make a bar below the 13 box I can not but share a common Most recent internship when frets are even available and go for a FA the key 13 is not exactly my current or mandatory.

I play sitting down. I never tried to play up with but it does not seem heavy. This is not a guitar that I would call lgre: we feel it is the and was well on the knees.

The sound is brilliant trs, ideal for a sound that stands well when playing in groups. I must admit that c'tait mtallique for me too with the original set of strings. I have changed several times to finish by installing Cleartone phosphorus bronze from 10 to 47. The branch is not the trs clear. Guitar trs trs powerfully projected, it is a pleasure.

Branch to get complicated! FISHMAN has a good reputable ... what happens? He really took a lot of patience to find a sound that seems acceptable. Surprises then! Clearly C'tait trs. Hair is hair with acute overload and mdiums screaming, bass hollow ... the horror ... the "real" microphone is Intgr al prampli and makes all the sounds of the body, including the squeal against my jeans!

The good config is to gain rgler Manir minimize Influencing this microphone the sound ... The piezo is very well ... What is the microphone? I think the fact that the paste is a pramp excrable ide ... as not to put.

SOUNDS

In dpart, I said c'tait too bright ... especially since I play acoustic trio plutt ...

I play with a power amp, no effect.
I like the clarity and the piezo is very well it makes quite round derrire notes crystal clear ... small arpges make beautifully.

OVERALL OPINION

I use a month.
The difficulty of rglage and mcaniques dores are particularity I like least.
Its incomparable ease of play, its presence and physical sound that I like most.
I tried lots and lots of guitars.

It is worth its price but would benefit cort solve the problem di "real" microphone, which originally is not al pramp in the fishman ... CONOMY the candle-end I think ...

I will see some competing srieuses:

Seagull S6 Quantum II is a scratch really comparable ... I prfrais the sound of the seagull, but stick me dplaisait (741 euros in stores in Belgium).

Taylor 114 CE: This is really a super skyscraper both in regard to the sound that the ease of play ... a little more CHRE: 899 on the internet. Touch ... say the feeling in contact with the guitar just gives a feeling "cheap"

The Cort is 584 euros in stores in Belgium.

ct of a Hfner there is a small lot: the HA GA03 ... 340 euros but it projects less and finish is not the same level. Having said that price is a good buy. I had bought but I returned because of a default of varnish that made me fear a problem dcollement of the handle.

Takamine the mid-range ... blah, not satisfied at all.

RM 740 fx is my opinion a better choice to play alone with a female singer because the sound is less clear, more bluesy but to play in the group 780 is a good choice considering the price.

A remake in Cort, I choose the 740.

I sold my 780 to buy a Takamine ESF 40 C of occasions (see my opinion this)
