    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    Guitar halfway between Les Paul and ES 335, roughly a bit bigger than a Les Paul and semi-hollow body. Body and mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard and maple table.
    Wood is not terrible, plywood throughout the body (seen by opening the microwave cavity)

    Made in Korea 2004
    2 P90, handle type large enough
    Vivrato Bigsby (true!)
    A general tone, 2 independent volumes with microphone, a master volume
    A 3 position micro switch type Les Paul.

    Trans Black finish superb, reveals the flame of the maple.

    UTILIZATION

    Channel pleasant
    Access to acute is average (Les Paul type)

    The Grover keep perfect agreement, we just need a little grease the nut and the bridge that the strings do not get stuck between shots vibrato.

    SOUNDS

    The sound is not great: a bit dark with the original pickups, a little distant, if not defined and not very far ...
    The sustain is very good and bonus was pretty larsens easily controllable.

    Not too much personality, you feel the edge of the woods of the guitar, it sounds not that great, it vibrates a lil bit but not too much.

    I changed the P90 Epi by Gibson Dogear taken from a Gibson LP Junior, it sounds better, potato and sharp, the sudden it allows me to use the guitar live (something I did more). It gives her a little stormy rather nice, but not the guitar with the biggest personality I have.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for a few days in rehearsals and concerts.
    I love the unique look, the sound suits me with the change of pickups ... But it is especially the face!
    I tried many guitars but none with this configuration + violin.
    Paid 300 € OCCAZ '(guitar like new) I do not regret my purchase!
    In my opinion, at this price it's worth, it was a good ptite playable guitar for 300 €, it is always better than other stuff, but hey, not the guitar of the year what.
