UTILIZATION

Handle large and thick (very bad point for me)
Access to acute is difficult but ... It is a Les Paul!
The guitar is very heavy ... When refitting, it seems to be very light .. lol
This guitar has no favorite style in particular ... She does all styles but it does not make them very well.
And finally the icing on the cake: you have to retune all the time, it's really **** in the long ch ...

SOUNDS

It does not suit my style of music is death metal. The pickups do not have enough potatoes and lack precision. For the distortion is a bit screwed. From what I've been told, a change of microphones will not be used so much better to buy a guitar entirely.

For clean sounds: All right, all is clean but I'm not a fan of clean sounds ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about 2 years. The quality / price ratio is normal I think. At that price, you can not have it either!
In any case, I do not advise beginners: ca may disgust them a bit (because of the weight and size of the handle). But it is my opinion, maybe some people like to play a round of the size of a trunk lol.
Since this was my first guitar, I had not tried other models before. Now I regret because you can do better for the same price!
