UTILIZATION

The handle is a pure joy.
The same ease as on a Telecaster or a Stratocaster.

You feel comfortable with her in his arms!
A stage as in the city.



SOUNDS

The sound is fantastic, warm and deep.

We can draw guitar sounds very typical semi-hollow, but also easier to control fine feedback, vibration, striking the drum, grinding and other strange resonances, not to mention the vibrato.

Ideal for those who love the rock version half boxes.
Gentle or violent, and noisy music, we just do everything with.



OVERALL OPINION

After 2 years of use (since 2006), I am still discovering new sensations with her.
Nothing to do with the Gretsch Electromatic or Ibanez Artcore.
But it's not the same price either ...

Appraisal:
A really fabulous scratch, I'm not about to let go.
PS:
Sold new in Europe in 3000 euros.
