The color is great!

UTILIZATION

You can not compare to that of the handle a Les Paul because it is much less bulky and the key is rounded, ergonomic, this is not a copy!
The guitar is not very heavy but still more than a Start, and the handle is a bit heavy nosedive but really nothing to be alarmed, it's not an explore ...
Treble are easily positioned and cutaway, it's still less than a M1000 ...
Otherwise nothing to say it's good, the neck is fine and nice and fast!

SOUNDS

This skyscraper is bluffing, it sounds and it's very beautiful!
The pickups are at the top of the thing with a good margin setting and nothing sizzles.
The sound is not super accurate, super-fatty, it was easily the sound of James Hetfield, and more generally, all the rhythmic passing great, very well balanced and the sound is never dirty, it feels good riff clean and not disgusting, it is easily what you want (I went in with DGCFAD 10/52).
Tried on lots of amps, it goes everywhere ... It is expressed already in a big way on the standard marshall, but passing on a H'n'K triamp, Attention please, take a seat and listen, it's deep and colorful, warm and powerful sound was flawless approaching the top level in PRS or Lag! I dare not imagine a ENGL powerball I have not as ...
The sound is clear and distortion the same qualities, it is very homogeneous and at the top.

OVERALL OPINION

2003-2004 from my having it go well in all areas, System of a Down Metallica through to Rage against the machine ...
The value is awesome because it has a sound borne disease in all circumstances, unless 700Eu now ...
A guitar that not only the safe, but a beautiful chest HUGE !!!!!
This choice I would do with experience, plus his side down!
