In fact, after several years, I changed the pickups, too poor, in the end. I went on the Seymour Duncan, it doubles the price of the guitar, but now she deposit!

Original:
This is a little Japanese, this guitar. It has 22 frets (I just re-count ...)
Its main feature, if I'm wrong, is that it's one of the few (only) jaguar to be equipped with 2 Humbucker ... hence the name ... HH
the bridge is the same type as the Les Paul, the small concern is that when I let myself go, I tend sometimes to the E string out of bed ... it's embarrassing but it happens less now than the beginning.
As for settings, there are a bunch a priori, but ultimately not that much. This is mainly due to the fact that there are two channels. volume and tone for each channel. plus 2 micro switches and a kind of a high-pass filter.
So, right side, there really is not to say ...

The handle is the highway, a little wider I think than a strat us.
Super easy to play, it is a pleasure she takes in hand after 45 seconds.
For the treble, as it is not cut out for the pure lead, is played only four-legged ...
However, ergonomics is a nickel and found that the faster everything you need where you need it ..

I'm pretty loose rock but not necessarily in that ... and glue.
What is chic with this guitar is that there is way to get very different sounds.
The first channel (using only the neck pickup), offers a warmer, softer, type, jazz.
The second channel is more crystalline, more acute in, especially, of course on the bridge pickup with the phase switch on, there, it pulls on the very tranchantp, too limited in its light.
That said, its clear that much distortion (I only use a Boss DS2), the pannel of sound is interesting and can switch from one genre to another without worry of a simple selector switch ... .

I have this guitar for 4 months and since I do not touch almost over my Strat Us Std, mainly because its one side it offers a less "heard", less current, it is obvious.
One thing is certain and which has greatly influenced my purchase is that this guitar is beautiful. She has a mouth and a group of sick and finish is impeccable ... Frankly, it tears.
The problem is that I had to go to the address in a pro because the factory settings, hello ... harmonics not too tight, the handle to tighten the strings to lower, those little things which happen but now I will not let go.
While all this for an extremely reasonable price, I say it's worth it. Just see how it will age.
So, frankly, a very positive overall opinion ..
