The manufacture of this is typed instrment chionoise. A small glimpse of the primary characteristics because that's what this party wants.
So first of all a round of 17 boxes, with a cutaway. The inlays are unfortunately of average quality, cheap to pull SPEED.
The preamp is still fairly complete with several settings, treeble bass, middle, cutter signal and volume and fréquenceur.
Inside maguitare seems to have been painted with a product but it is questionable ... maybe an isolated case ...
I now will builds a little, more understanding and to prevent certain: I have owned this model for a year and a half ... and it took me three guitars to take this time! In the first, the input jack is first passed through the body (over an air bubble in the pickguard, let ...). The following has not been more fortunate: the mechanical carved head as to be able to make a U-turn on itself (yes I also hallucinated), and finally after the third exchange I got a bilge puzzle since the handle was twisted (it was supposed to be new) which is irremediable, and therefore particularly serious on a guitar (joutons was missing the back strap attachment ...). I would like to note two contradictory quality of customer service, Total music and very good since I did not pay three times the postage and professionalism is exemplary (which I think deserves to avoid the zero rating ...); and diametrically opposed, since I bought in total ctte guitar music that had the praise, and rightly so because sggissait their brands (which was not hidden, but certainly nowhere said .. ) use the naivety of the buyer and a lack of probity and objectivity regrettable from vendors and even more so among guitarists ...
Make it clear I do not want in any way by this mark villenpider but inform of what can still be taken as a chronic bad luck.

UTILIZATION

User for 1 year and a half I have already informed about the short life of this intrument, but how was going to use?
I would not say I did not like this guitar, it was my first that I found particularly good (like the above test), until a friend opens my eyes and I take a step back.
The course of mnche is very cheap (for cardboard not say ...), members if access is relatively easy to treble.
Nothing to say about the shape and feel the weight that can be miraculous on a guitar of this price range ...
But I can assure you I am not a critic with a € 1600 Martin ... my new guitar costs just € 100 more than the old: € 270. I know perfectly what the price / quality ratio and speaks practitioner (if not expert)!

SOUNDS

The sound now. It is highly crystalline and very typical folk. The insistence of acute and severe lack of concrete tends to undermine the game so much so that real serious research has become one of my basic criteria for choosing an instrument. The sound is very average way.
The preamp does not buy anything unfortunately as you can see him on other guitars. Despite the myriad of settings, the treble will dominate, an extremely annoying feedback prédomiera and its output will be poor. I look at the output of an acoustic amp alesis éectro that I end up away believing that he was very poor quality, until I realized that sagissait makes the guitar when I change the instrument. .. So disappointing.
I would like finally to stress the aspect of the instrument since at cheap BEYOND various problems, the inlay was too depressed, remaining traces of glue along the handle and name of the preamp settings (sheet glued) rotted .
Mlgré the quality / price certainly unbelievable at first.

However, I understand perfectly the previous testers, was myself the author of a similar test on another site guitar, the only different factor is the distance that durrée and very promptly did regret what I wrote, not by revenge but because it was possible that some people have bought this guitar because of me. You can now do so, you have the right! But I advise you to wait a little, save € 100 more and buy an instrument worthy of the name, a more profitable investissementbien ...!

OVERALL OPINION

I already said everything, I did not see this entry;)
But not with the experience I would do not have that choice despite some price / quality ratio (instead of a price / quality ratio can atire ...), some in the beginning.
