UTILIZATION
So, for the handle, I would say it is kind of "large", we feel we have something in hand without it being too ... I still advise a setting because the strings are a little too big and do not facilitate the bends, for my part a simple change in 9-42 resolved the problem. the action is normal, which I do not like playing too high nor too low,'m in heaven! access to the latest frets is very good, to do solos in the last few boxes ...
in terms of ergonomics, it has a reasonable weight and shape is not too "INVASIVE" as an ES335 or other ...
Indeed, compared to an ES, the body is smaller and thinner.
In short a very good ergonomics, which still requires just a small adjustment to the hardness of the strings
SOUNDS
While a fan of Disto and sustain, you'll love!! I who plays the Power Blues, Rockabilly Power, Power Of Rock and many others, I'm really happy, I play a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe and I immediately realized that compared to my Fender ( Strat and Tele) I had to halve the DRIVE, this guitar is really made for heavy distortion and other, more sustain, there is! a small bend in the direction of his amp and presto ... it screams Some find unpleasant ca but I love.
BUT ...
I am also very pleasantly surprised by the sound it Clean, well-slamming and treble treble on how serious and well on the way round and Rhythm and a good combination of 2 of the middle position, because the difference between the fashion and incredible rhythm and treble sound was very clear and well slamming acute rhythm and treble sound too serious a nice round and desire.
In short, I play mostly power but I also have a group of Cover From Elvis and I play clean sound and it fits perfectly. So this guitar is made for anything but funk but it depends on you too!
OVERALL OPINION
So that's 15 days I have this guitar I did four concerts and that's just pure happiness basically I would say this guitar is powerful, it really offers the power of pure treble of serious mediums. .. all there!!
With american strat and telecaster, and having already tried the Gibson, I swore by FENDER but ... it puts everything into question ...
one flat on the nut and the plastic switch position (under the Bigsby) which does not facilitate the change of micro ...
Regarding the price is more or less 1150Euros what is really just for a guitar with this quality of sound and games!!
a choice I do not regret in any way!
