Value For Money :
Excellent
Head: Design Arkane Flamed maple transparent black and bare wood
Neck: Maple Bolt
Fingerboard: Rosewood
24 frets
Body: Flamed Maple top with mesh on basswood body
Pickups: 2 Dual-coil Seymour Duncan (SH-PG1 neck and bridge in TB6)
Floyd Rose tremolo
A volume knob and a tone knob
3 position selector
Origin: China
UTILIZATION
The body is very thin, it does not feel crowded, despite some weight
The neck is very thin and allows all sorts of rhythmic and velocity shredienne metal. I do have some difficulty to some agreement 7e (high tension of the strings and strings close together).
Access to treble is perfect with the heel end and the cutaway well thought out.
The shape is very ergonomic thanks to body contouring.
It holds the tuning very well by blocking strings Floyd
SOUNDS
I wanted a guitar for heavy metal sound, sharp and clear. I'm not disappointed, with a right amp you get a surgical strike force. But not that ... The neck pickup provides sounds sweet and slightly warm vintage. I even make little plans blues.
By setting the tone, you can get a lot of different sounds. Crystalline treble enough to sound a little more round sound clear. In distortions, choking with the palms, we can get big bass and modern sounds, stinging ropes not stifled in the bridge pickup. On the neck pickup, you get the same type of sound settings more typical Iron Maiden or Deep Purple.
So a pretty good versatility ..
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for almost 3 years and I do not feel limited by this beautiful guitar. It really sounds perfect, precise and powerful net but allowing some flexibility. I use a Line 6 amp for good sound palette. Profiling of body and finesse of the fretboard to play at full speed without interference.
I tried several different brands of guitars and even the best known for using his big, I have not found better.
Value for money excellent.
