Made in an Asian country, probably Korea

excellent craftsmanship: blinding of wood, abalone rosette, impeccable polish and resistant.

comprehensive set preamp: bass, mid, TREB, close, vol, reversed phase, battery charge indicator, tuning (+ /-specific but non-standard enough to agree quickly)

output jack or XLR, easy access battery door back.

Ebony bridge, bridge and nut head very hard composite material close to the bone
Grover oil bath.

20 round boxes satin polished mahogany, ebony fingerboard
solid mahogany body, solid sitka table shiny patent

UTILIZATION

This guitar has the neck of an electric guitar: comfort, speed, precision, very low action without curl: very easy to take a long time in bars or rhythmic solos make rapid access to acute that is not obvious on this kind of guitar.

The weight is appropriate and balanced but the box is impressive: super volume and definition without the amp but conscéquent space, especially for the game up.

Bass, treble, midrange, do you want in here! Sounds very full, warm, powerful, guitar not neutral in personality, but good to do everything from blues to gypsy through any other rhythmic, pick or fingers game, it is fine. Amplification boosts its values, must (and can) adjust well, that's it!

SOUNDS

I play all styles on stage and home studio this guitar suits me perfectly.
Plugged directly into mixing desk, with no effects (except those of the table, slight reverb): no feedback and very good sound.
The sounds I like are the power, roundness and warmth of the bass and the relationship between low-mid-treble. However, due to the difficulty of access, little problems of accuracy from the 15th case (at issue: my lack of knowledge ... I think the guitar is fine!)
I forgot: harmonic everywhere easy to create! I love it!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for six months, I have waited to buy an electro-acoustic because I saved: in fact, I thought I should at least 1500 euros for something that takes the road very well (and again, with an SM57 in front of acoustic ...) and well there are only fools never change their opinion as to 650 euros, is a matter of dealing with ...
I tried for several years different models, from low end to high end, and when I had the hands that scratch, I bought it direct.

Thank you to Mr Ibanez has not boosted the price of this hottie, she is 2 times more.

PS: If I did not notice 10 each time is that I do not want all the owners of TAYLOR MARTIN and call me crazy ...
