SOUNDS

My style of music, I play everything, so yes this guitar for me when I want to take me to stephen carpenter -.
Clearly it's cold EMG, but Interim position correct things we get ...
Distortion in pretty good, accurate, right.
At first I was playing on a ht5r Blackstar amp and was a bit limited you might expect to collect the frequencies of the 8 th string, since I play with 50 thunderveb Orange ppc 212 and how to say it is enjoyable!

OVERALL OPINION

It is eight months that I used an 8 string I already had a Schecter but I prefer LTD.
The guitar has a very good mouth although black is not very original.
Value satisfactory price.
I would do this choice without hesitation.

- Made in Korea.
- Channel driver Rabl (probably three pieces), 24 frets "extra jumbo, standard 55 mm nut, thin-profile U.
- Wings of mahogany.
- Rosewood, not included on the button to the 12th SRC inlay box and model the 24th box, white binding on neck and head.
- Bridge: Hipshot Fixed Bridge (really like systm): Mechanical: ESP Locking Tuners (very correct).
- EMG 808 in the bridge position and intermediate-Volume, Tone slecteur 3 positions.
- Finish Black gloss.
- The guitar arrived correctly rule. A screw rglage nevertheless have the jumpers fall silent (probably during the trip), that jai found in the box, and replaced without problem. Book with a wrench for the truss rod allen and allen for cl rglage laction of the bridges.

8 / 10: Everything is very well done, but nothing really stand out, except the 8th string (still relatively rare in the factory MODEL).

UTILIZATION

- The handle is "relatively" pleasant, as meant by the recess as well cest a monster wide (must squeeze the 8 strings keeping room for the fingers), but quon sarrache fingers not looking for the 8th string, especially thanks lpaisseur contained the handle, which my great tonn the Reception (I expected much more pais) .
Me, I like well, I found more pleasant in hand quune 6 strings, but less quune 7 string, which is, I think, The right size for me. Small hands, flee

- CASC to acute particulirement is not easy or difficult for the high strings, cest correct no more. For strings, cest impossible, but they do not have to either.

- Lquilibre General for guitar is enjoyable thanks to the shape Horizon (stratode), unsurprisingly. Ct weight, given the size of the neck and body (lightly bigger than a 6 string, I guess to equilibrate), it does PSE weight dun death attention to the back. Good games or sitting strap predict.

- Two knobs, one and two EMG 808 slecteur do not have much fantasy level rglages sounds on the guitar, but it works well. Must play knob volume for clean tones, it sends the 808

- Personal Opinion: As much passing the 7 strings (LTD SC607B, yes, I like a lot these models) published my easy and intuitive, as the passage 8 strings a bit Ancess CC adaptation . It happens, it adapts, but the galleys c'tait to beginners.

7 / 10: same comment, very good but nothing exceptional either I think. And the weight can really be teacher (nothing, takes wood to the handle and equilibrate the body).

SOUNDS

- Fan unconditional Deftones, yes, it suits me perfectly.
- I look up a bit by pulling the rope 8th, my taste a little soft.
- I play on a JMP1 a Rocktron Velocity 100, a Rocktron Xpression and a baffle 412 Line6 Flextone.
- The real clear sound, this is not his cup of tea. Is there a way to find clean sounds nice on the mic intermediate-NOTAM, but it remains trsdpendant hardware upstream of the skyscraper. I take all the same a bit of funk or another fantasy. For cons, the more one goes towards saturation, the more the guitar is his playground.
- I do not grow beyond the description of sounds, much of the hardware ca dpend each.

9 / 10: Pay a little better because of this ts are asked not to drive a truck like a motorcycle.
So, given the type of guitar, because it is outside its dmerde sand tray and gives the best o we expect is that in saturation, I'm g nreux. Each judge according to his needs.

OVERALL OPINION

- I've had almost a month and a half now.
- What most jaime: ben on 8 strings, cest fun, I wanted to try, I'm not.
- What jaime least the weight. The color black, a little too got my classic (even if AA's mouth, I must admit). The See Through Green radioactive plonk the first models of Carpenter I miss a bit .
- I havent tried else 8 strings, but a jai jaime SC607B that much, so I stayed in the family.
- Report QualitPrix honnte, one has for his money.
- I think I would do this choice for an 8 string.

It makes an average 8 / 10, not bad, not bad.

edit: I finally sold. I do not use it often does. The handle is really big and I have not had the patience persevered the eight-string ...
