UTILIZATION

The handle is really nice and easy. He dismissed as bad guitar guitars all that preceded it but me apart from the APX700.


All possible harmonics on the stick out without difficulty.
The sustain is very good and the sound of the guitar is rich in harmonics.

In short, this guitar is alive!

SOUNDS

The sound has nothing to do with that guitar of the mid-range or the body is not massive ... fund all solid wood gives color to the sound, a wealth that is a delight to play.
In particular, the sounds are more detailed and help a good play.

It's the sound I was looking for

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one week.

I like everything

This is my 4th guitar and I finally satisfaction. I realize now that I have a LJ16 that the average guitar lines (200 to 400 euros) are not a good guitar.

The value for money is exceptional in my case. In fact I had this guitar in B-Stock 300 euros because it has damaged the back (painted after a split mishandling).
I had plenty of time to try the guitar, check the noise potential, his place of understanding. Once the defect was not fatal ... I bought RAM balances. At that price not hesitate for a guitar of this quality.

This defect does not affect the sound and will be repaired quickly, that kind of break is not very serious, you just have stabilized to prevent it getting worse over time.

The normal price of this guitar is between 750 and 850 euros. If you can afford, please.

With experience, I remake that choice 100%
