UTILIZATION

The handle is not a highway schredders (although ...) but is superbly comfortable. access to the most acute is easy. It has little to risk a bend in two tones of cargo without risking the 24th tendinitis.
Heavy guitar, but the price of wood quality and thus the sound. you plug it sounds live.

SOUNDS

I use it in my funk soul band and a singer who plays in a register electros soul dub (not very true that a definable). I use a Boss GT3 and a Peavey Amp Marshall JCM2000 classic30 or celon style.
It's not a blues guitar, it is much too aggressive. the sounds range from crystal clear (great for funk) to aggressive (like ACDC by reverse phase).
For heavy distortion, it's rock and roll with raw crude metal show Metal trash.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for just over two years now, and I am quite satisfied. It's a perfect guitar throughout the registers or the attack must be well defined, making it fairly versatile guitar but has a hell of potato (no question of playing jazz, blues or sweet varieties my Tom Anderson does just that). The splitage microphones, and reverse phase allows for a huge sound pallette who knows profit. I'll assume the guitar-oriented metal is rather due to the seventh chord but it fits perfectly in other register (proof I do not play metal than me). Personally the seventh string is useful for songs in Eb (current directory in the soul / funk), but I also useful for slap (Playing Keziah Jones with extensions in the lower, it's great).
With a little patience on the set is not even get to play the Pink Floyd and Mark Knopfler (sisi I assure you, I play telegraph road with this guitar and it sounds)
I purchased used for $ 1000euros and I do not regret.
I first bought this guitar for a wider range of his ... The only downside for me is stick a little stiff for my taste, but nothing serious.
