Value For Money : Excellent
Everything has been said ;-)
24 frets
Powersound 2 humbuckers + 1 single medium
Floyd

Versatile guitar that is well suited to the Metal

UTILIZATION

Super set, although this is very subjective. It is thinner than Jackson, but very enjoyable to play.
Easy Access acute boxes.

BIG black dot on the Floyd is a crap name! Let me explain:
- The rod is fixed in a nut screwed around the plate. If you stop the rod in the nut, after a month everything is loose and it is good for a complete breakdown ... Otherwise it should be left unlocked in the stem nut, but it creates the game, and it dangle vertically, not great if you want to keep on hand
- On mine (I do not know if it is systematic), the Floyd did not return to the agreement! After light use (style variation in tone or half tone), it takes 2-3 seconds to back the agreement, and after great shots, so there you can always wait ... anyway the guitar go out of tune constantly, it's a horror ...

SOUNDS

I use it mainly with large distos Metal. Good but not great. A good ratio Q / P, but the microphones did not break bricks. Okay for those who want good sound without breaking the bank. The microphone has a cool sound sharp with good stuff behind, but lacks a little power.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years. The highlights for me:
+ + + Handle very nice and very accessible
+ + Good value for money in this price range
+ + Versatile model that works well for big sounds. The microphone also has a serious sound pretty hot not too bad.
- Without proper microphones
