UTILIZATION
It's been 3 years I own this guitar (even if in the meantime, I switched to Ibanez) and I've never had to complain about the ergonomics. The handle is nice to play, the frets are at the right height, it is comfortable both sitting and standing that has the advantage of being incredibly légère.La key is not really great but has never bothered me (it must say that my other passion is bûcheronage ...). On access to acute, that would not grow hair to a monk but it's still okay, I've seen worse on a € 2400 in Jackson ...
Many criticize the height and the spacing of the strings, but for my part, I find it enjoyable to play than my Ibanez RG (but again, with snow shovels in hands which I use ...)
When the sound of good material, with some basic knowledge, we get it something very correct with respect to its price (provided you have good strings and agree with minute precision, failing to obtain treble atrocious)
However, a word on the bridge: the lever is pure crap, mine to break in to the tidal thread on first use ... I never had the opportunity to test
SOUNDS
Well, obviously there is a different story.
With the basic amp, no need to expect to get a clean sound. It's ugly, it lacks potato, it lacks power, in short, it's just horrible.
By against, having tested my MG100dfx Marshall, here's what I remember:
In conventional arrangements, little is doing quite well, despite sometimes difficult to manage acute (by adjusting the tone, it becomes frankly drinking)
In power chords, with a good distortion, it throws, I test it, and honestly, I was amazed by the sound quality.
In arpeggio, there is a different story, with the sharp, you really play with the switch and tones to get something to drink.
For solos, always set correctly, it gives something acceptable, both in metal than blues, it goes without skinning the ears.
Hint: it will give better sound with a good crunch rather than a boosted overdrive to death.
OVERALL OPINION
Used on a real amp, and with a good set, this guitar can be quite safe, I would say almost "quality" for certain types of sounds.
But its major advantage is its price.
I would do if this choice? not quite: I would take her older sister equipped with a humbucker in the bridge.
An excellent guitar for beginners, in the end.
For those who try to leave, I have a tip: chop-in one hand and offer you a proper amp with the money saved, you will have something nice to make friends with buffs
