Elypse Guitars Dryade B7CEW

Really high-end hardware, all solid wood. careful violin, a table engelmann massive spruce soundboard and the back and sides solid flamed hazel. Bone bridge

UTILIZATION

Very nice handle, which facilitates a quick game. The fingerboard is ebony. It's just amazing for a guitar less than 1000 €. Easy access to acute through cutaway.

SOUNDS

Is perfect for my style of play; I play pop, folk. Perfect as in agreements that picking plectrum or fingers. I find her very warm.
Acoustics, it is extraordinary.
I emit more reserves on the preamp B-BAND A2.2 integrated, which does not show all the acoustic qualities of the instrument when plugged in.
Its not plugged deserves 10/10.
I put 9 because of the preamp.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years. I also have a Takamine TAN10C which cost more than 1000 €. The acoustic qualities of DRYADE are much better. The preamp is the best Takamine.
The preamp is the DRYADE very discreet; it can not be seen from the outside, completely inside the box, with two settings Mollettes at the rosette.
We can therefore safely remove the preamp integrated B-BAND, and replace it with another of his choice.
If the oscillator is changed, a truly perfect guitar that competes in my opinion with guitars 2000 € (Personally, that's what I did) is obtained.
Value exceptional price.

This guitar did not have the reputation it deserves, as marketed by MILONGA brand, whose other products were sometimes bad. Elypse the brand has good and very bad.
This model is high quality, which has nothing to do with the other Elypse products.
The materials used are just bluffing.

passionate auction has sold me this new guitar for a cheap price, he bought after the shameful closure of shops Milonga, desired and orchestrated by Sodival-cultura which bought Milonga 2008 closure. sodival stripped cash milonga and forced employees to train those de Cultura trade instruments: it is a shame! I want to clarify.

country of manufacture: models below dryads are made in China, then, nothing noted.
the design is French.
the guitar is all solid, Engelman, walnut, ebony, mahogany (neck), grover mechanical gold-plated frets bone ... great class.
the handle is 45mm at nut, I love, and it is almost impossible to find cheap.
It is mixable with two microphones, a piezo under saddle and mic surface stuck under the table, there is a notch on the tuner and preamp B-Band T65 and two XLR or Jack outputs.
the guitar was normally sold with a custom case, but the cases were sold separately during the auction ... they will highlight in-store or in the classifieds at a time.
the finish is fantastic, everything is oriented sound, no inclusion of abalone, wood, just wood, great finish well even in the body, it is super clean, no smudge sticks, table well sanded below also ... the great class!

UTILIZATION

very wide handle with overhang not remove the two Mi handle.
I liked more material in back of the neck and over radius, but now it must go through a luthier.
the guitar is light and well balanced.
the sound is clear arpeggios and a little fuzzy agree (I play fingers, not a pick, it does not help ...)
I lowered the nut, 2mm and 1.7 mm (12th fret), I lost power and gained comfort and speed.
the neck is super straight, it is sturdy and the table is sufficiently reinforced to supported my big rods (54-12).
The accuracy in the Octave is perfect, I mean perfect, even after lowering the saddle, this is awesome!
The fund argues very well, big sustain, beautiful harmonic tuning, she sings terrible on the treble.
This larsenne little guitar, mic are quality B-Band done the job well, I'll have the plug on the AG Stomp (Yamaha) to see if it sends all my crafter Fishman preamp.

SOUNDS

the sound is not too crystalline, it is well balanced, you can play everything with and connected to a good amp, you get what you want.
the more I play, the more it gets better in a few days the sound has changed in volume and accuracy, harmonics also develop, the sound is rich and deep, the bass is beautiful and precise.

OVERALL OPINION

I week.
yes, I tried a plethora of guitars and handles 43 really swelled me.
one details all owners of Dryades if you're looking where that nasty vibration is in serious, kind, I have a bad thing stuck in, take a look at the battery compartment, you will see that it floats in and vibrates a block of paper does the trick

I love this guitar so I do it again this choice without hesitation.

going to ask me a little advice ...
I try a lot of amp at the moment, I'm songwriter (guitar vocals) and some beautiful little places, should the amp do the job for two ...
with a Antilarsen (especially the SM58 mic).
the ideal would be a pretty powerful, lightweight, and able to send a stereo signal with integrated amplified to two small reinforcements if needed effects amp. Good, I see only the AC-60, Ibanez T150s and T80N, I eyeing the Ibanez, but the T150 seems to have a negative reputation among sellers who do not control, so, untestable, j have asked tests on AF, but nothing comes ... Well, if there is one by you, thank you going to try and post your opinion.
