Value For Money :
Correct
Asian manufacturing, value for money requires no complaints on the finish. Mine is white style "Mary Kay" vintage look (white then pulls on the beige) ...
For technical specifications, a look at this website will tell you as much as I can do. The philosophy of the 600 is clearly stratabound: mapple typed round fender, narrow but relatively flat, the three buttons take up the config stratocaster (volume near the ropes so) we love always, if you take the 700!
Big plus for me indispensable: a vibrato type fender. When one knows how to use (and pay) it works very well!
I used it for the first time on stage yesterday for three hours: no worries of detuning, in any case nothing more annoying than my other instrument equipped with vibrato. Mechanical impeccable.
I forgot: I changed the strings of origin (9 / 42) for the 10/46, a bit beefier, which is probably required to improve the tuning. I put 9 / 10 since I chose this model specifically for these physical characteristics.
After three hours on stage, I can confirm that the weight is quite reasonable, in any case less cumbersome than my G & L S500 (a super-strat, but only one type of sound ...)
The handle is forgotten, especially if you're like me used to the touch mapple Fender. It is even more comfortable than the average factory setting flawless (I had the opportunity to choose among several models in the store, the standard setting was more important than the choice of color. Mine is the hair.)
The body shape is still very different from the stratum: horns narrower main part of the larger body. Beware: it will not fit in a flight case necessarily carved a stratovolcano. I abandoned the gig bag for a stronger body. People who turn me understand ...
The sounds (not the sound) is the main argument of this instrument; Initially skeptical (20 years of his Fender in his ear anyway) I came into the store with my G & L and a strato U.S. buddy, to compare the history modulations strato 59. (It is not me). It was important for me to find the feeling to go to the strato purchase. Sounds more to me would therefore avoid changing guitar on stage for acoustic ballads or plans Dobro open tuning ...
The test was conclusive. Let's be clear: I will not sell my strato, but in case of change with the guitar, I take the Line6. There is a spectrum somewhat limited at the margin (bass deeper on the real stratosphere, and dynamic a little chick on the Variax, but the "color" is there, including the sounds 2 and 4 "out of phase")
The acoustic sounds were the big surprise in rehearsal: live on the table (and especially not in a guitar amp!) We believe it. He had only seen the head of the other zicos when I played on modeling Martin D28! They were looking where I stashed the guitar .... Ditto for the sounds of the National Triplate: intro to Romeo and Juliet as a disk, all without disconnecting and reconnecting the galleys at the guitars. Total comfort, and one side "wizard" that makes her little effect. But I insist: acoustic sounds always on the mixer and the sound with a bit of reverb, XLR output only (it's in the manual)
Other sounds are very characteristic and allow me to get out a few of my habits. Gibson sounds are very convincing, particularly the P90 ("special") in saturation have a smooth texture and singing very user friendly. Try it and see.
Still limited to small sets with open agreement: the digital detuning, convenient, suffers from a delay effect very marked. So use with care.
I've had two months. I use it on stage for the directory Dire Straits: the intro guitar metal (triplate National), sound accompaniment (Where do you think you're going), his solo singing Les paul (Brothers in arms) and of course the riffs strato (sultans of swing): everything sounds so credible and above all without the fuss! With the POD 2.0 on the floor and pedal Floor board, I became a fan of Line6 for convenience (travel light) of the concept. We agree, nothing can replace the original guitars with amps that go with it but frankly, your back will thank you. Apart from a few snobs who shunned the side of the High Tech Digital, the large audience yesterday was surprised to learn that I played without amplifiers or microphones on the guitar.
A reasonable purchase, fun and a great value for me (I keep the best for last: € 551 new! But there is more at this price, the price catalog is € 907 .. . But it's worth.))
