Value For Money :
Excellent
Guitar made in china, well finished with a good head "guitar luthier" all wood. The table is 3 layers of plywood with an outer layer improved (smaller defects veining). The finishes are of this quality that reveals a brilliant thick polyurethane varnish pasted all the details. Strangely I do not recognize the guitar that describe the other testers: mine has mechanical buttons with metal rose decor simple, basic electronic sound that can be seen on Chinese guitars Stagg kind (where is the preamp shadow?). In short, if someone can give me information about it ... The bridge is nickel-free ankles. But be careful to put the "balls" strings in the right direction if it can blow up the bridge as did the previous owner! Absence of harmful belt clip at the base of the handle and the bottom plastic case is symbolic (that is evil!). The wood of the headstock looks very soft because the mechanical sink into when trying to tighten.
UTILIZATION
The handle is nice, close the edges of the frets could be better trimmed. it does not frieze with crossed easy. The cutaway allows access notched very easy to very high notes. As "baby jumbo" is amazing, the guitar is the size of a standard which makes transportation very nice, it looks like a child's guitar! However, the ergonomics are excellent, it is well in hand with good balance. It is not thick, which is a plus too. Mechanics are correct and no more.
SOUNDS
No secret: a small box, a table made of plywood and a thick coating provide an unobtrusive, powerful but somewhat enjoyable. The bass is a tad weak people, treble best. Connected, it will sound better despite a relatively low range that quickly shows its limits with feedback as soon as one goes up the bass. Settings like "boost, treble, midrange, presence ..." are difficult to perform. The new system "studiolag" must be efficient otherwise! I must say that I play on a Peavey amp that is not made for acoustics: this may explain it ...
OVERALL OPINION
I've had three days and rather regret the sound of Aplaus cons which I traded despite his impossible round back. However for the price, the picture is more positive. the essentials are: a good handle, a violin sound, a nice face original acoustic sound quiet but correct ergonomics much more pleasant than Aplaus and a small size that is forgotten on a trip. For info, she returned in a case of classic basic. In short, we greatly for his money!
