UTILIZATION

Handle very nice, easy to play fast.
Cutting for access to acute is impressive for a guitar cut les paul. There is no difficulty playing the last frets.
The ergonomics are excellent. The guitar is heavy but with a maple body and that form is what is expected of her. The sustain is long.
This guitar as his signature indicates is oriented metal, so yes we get a good metal sound, heavy, sharp and sustained. The guitar will certainly not rival other style especially in his clear face rivals more suitable. But his style can only put a 9 in his rhythm and a 3 solo violin and the wood does not compete with more upscale.

SOUNDS

As said before it is suitable mainly metal and rock all styles well.
It can play any type of amp, but a good amp for powerful saturation and crystal clear sound is required. The power of the guitar tends to saturate the clean sound on the entry level amps.
The neck pickup gives us a fairly heavy and fat, in some very nice rhythm.
The bridge pickup is frankly sharp! saturated in it is a real razor you can go solo in the rhythmic deposition without changing it.
In his clear all depends on the song, the bridge pickup tends to recall the good old metallica live but really limited in the clear.
My preference is clearly for his easel in saturated!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for several weeks now, I'm very happy: a heavy guitar to sustain intense, in his sharp and incisive. I tried many guitars before in jackson ibanez and bc rich, for the price it is hard to beat in this style.
With experience, I see no reason to change unless the style of music no longer suits you or you want an invoice for best guitar solos crazy ^ ^
