UTILIZATION

Level of ergonomics, nothing wrong. The balance is perfect, the weight is correct, access to acute could not be more simple ... I read in another review that someone had a concern because the volume knob is too close to the ropes and he happened to touch it when playing, it never happened, unlike the strato or I always changes the position selector (I play very near the handle).

The handle, I find it perfect, it fits perfectly in my hand, the jumbo frets are very nice (I worried a little before this change because I was playing on strato) Since this is a 7 string is of course larger but not larger than a 6-string acoustic guitar, so no worries on that side.

It quickly gets a good sound on this guitar, even if it takes time to adapt if we pass a 6-string guitar for this ^ ^

SOUNDS

I played on an amp Line 6 Spider III 120 Watt (an owl critter for metal and harder sounds in general). This guitar and amp that are a beautiful couple, they are designed for the same sounds which allows me to get the maximum.

The clean sounds are "fair" and it takes quite picky to find a setting that does not make it sound like a pot (I'm tough because I also play alongside a stratovolcano)

If you want to play some old songs a little jazz or otherwise, do not be demanding in terms of sound (perhaps on a marshall amp 60-70 years there would be some way to get anything but good).

An amusing fact is that it sounds pretty good for reggae ^ ^

on the other hand if like me you love to play the sound "slamming", from the old hard rock to metal, this guitar is perfect. It's really up and it sends heavy, just what I expected from this guitar.

OVERALL OPINION

So I bought second hand a month ago (to 130 € = D), and before that I played on a stratovolcano and also on classical guitar.

The thing I like least about this guitar is probably the lack of vibrato (I do not use it often, but hey if it's taking me envy I can not), sounds clear so I do not like compared to my strato.

Considering the price at which I had, I can say that value for money 10/10. If not seen his store price, I would put him 8 / 10, with a view or you want a 7 string, because if we had not really want, as much to buy a 6 string.

Of course at 130 € I resume without hesitation, especially since it had better pickups than the original ones. Excellent guitar
