Analysis:
I was curious to try this guitar, I had heard great things and I, when I cross, wanted to take this opportunity. However, I did not notice ... she seemed a little lost among the esp custom shop and other warriors around him, but I can certify that a standard mag, surrounded by Squier and Ibanez, the quality of the finish would type over immediately to the eye.

That's what surprised me ... for 750 Swiss francs, there's not much to complain about. The varnish has no visible defects, the handle is properly fitted, the frets well applied ... that you ask for?

(8) A guitar with everything you need after even a split! We can only criticize a little wood, correct without being able to compete with other high-end competitors.

UTILIZATION

The surprise comes in this category! Yes, it's a very nice instrument to play. I enjoyed the best round on the gibsconne with sleeves 50's, even if the handle 60's and that of the warrior soldier killent everything in their path.

I had the impression of playing on an instrument with a range greater than the price range where it wanders. The frets were nice, the action was nice, I regretted the absence of Ebony for the key (I like gasoline), but it could develop a sensitivity, however, very important on this fretboard.

I also liked the split, adding the twang in the signal, but as always, somewhat distorting the process when applying to a guitar equipped with double. The sounds were good early, but we will return.

(8) Ergonomics LesPualienne, so up to 8 ... do not push it!

SOUNDS

When empty, the guitar shows little power projection, she stands in the middle of the pack with less, however, an overall pleasant sweetness.

I plug ...

There I also had a good surprise, cleans out the guitar has personality, warmth, a pleasant flight in the high, and once splitter, microphones deliver a slight twang pleasant in the records vintage.

In crunch, the sound had the consistency and thickness, again with a slightly sharp flute, making a nice solo. I was surprised capacity Jekyll and Hyde of the craft. Sometimes warm, almost bluesy, and sometimes incisive, well-rock. Perfect! For Chipotte, I would say the pickups are worth anyway not Bartolini, or bare knuckles Hauessel, but it is already in excellent mics that have nothing to envy some references most prominent.

(9) an excellent tool in terms of sound

OVERALL OPINION

For this price it's pretty amazing what we have hands. In fact, the only thing that is scary is the image of cheap Super Swede, but ultimately, it contains sounds successful, a true ergonomics and build quality (apparently, only time will tell how they age) convincing.

(10) in this price range I can put this note. Compared to the Gibs stuffed finish defects or construction in their entry-level models, compared to epiphone sounds with some chemicals in the entry level, compared to tokai which can lower the price its Japanese as low, Hagstrom offers us an alternative product for fans but connoisseurs.
