Made of Indonsie, this guitar team of two non-humbuckers and split.
I just replaced a shadow pa AZ49 and a Seymour Duncan SH4 (it would be better for TB4 a map of strings, but it works well when trs-even).
It has 22 frets.
The bridge is fixed.
For each micro: 1 volume + 1 Tone.
The handle is al.

UTILIZATION

The handle is comfortable and gives a trs trs Access in AIGS good.
Like any guitar 1 / 4 cash, it is not too heavy, but forcment wider than a solid body. Prvoyez therefore cover acoustic guitar for transport.
To get good sound, you must review all rglages factory. Indeed, the bridges and heights of the bridge pickups are clearly not Verify points. This small opration only take 20 minutes, is not a big dception.

SOUNDS

For blues and jazz, the advantage of 1 / 4 trs cash is really audible. It is rounder, it's warmer.
I use a Hughes & Kettner cabinet matrix100head + Behringer BG412H a MG100DFX Marshall, and Marshall 5212.
The clean sounds lacked roundness and sharpness on the neck pickup, but with the shadow AZ49, has nothing more to see.
The combination with the SH4 gives a good range of sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

I have now for four months.
I love the Aesthetics trs trs traditional and modern time.
For pickups, the change is ncessaire.
Before this, I tried an Ibanez suprieure of price range. But the Yamaha pickups changs with my revienue CHRE least equivalent to an instrument or suprieur.
The report of the instrument remains qualitprix trs good. If I had to redo this choice may be that j'conomiserais a bit and I would change all-in-suite microphones.
