- Guitar Michael Kelly Patriot Q Made in Korea (Korea)
It may already be scary, but do not rely primarily on the manufacturing site.
Mahogany body, flamed maple top, Mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard
Color: Amberburst, there is also natural, but personal, I like too!
- 22 frets, dual humbuckers Micro Paf More splittable
(That is not given on all guitars of this price!)
- Fixed bridge (Gibson style) Tonepros, Grover (oil bath)
- 2 volume knobs, 2 tone knobs, 3 position selector
(With Split, it makes a lot of possibilities)
- In neck, round enough but not too heavy, rather very pleasant.
UTILIZATION
That's it is in my living room! I unpacked, the first impression?
Be a little patient!, It must be given! But she is beautiful she weighs the weight, not as heavy as a Gibson, but we will say significant, but not bad!
My fingers a bit shy decided to invest the beast.
First piece chosen, Search and Destroy by Iggy Pop ...
The handle slides well, the key is nice, my guitar was set very low, the playability is affected (it's great it looks like it plays itself!), However, it just frieze.
The access to acute is facilitated by the type of corp les paul style. The bass and midrange are represented as acute, but in position pickup is more than enough to make good solos!
I can not put 10 (frieze it) but I'll have a good mind!
SOUNDS
This is a guitar made for playing Rock, maybe some inroads into the metal but in case of emergency! Microphones and split are that it can be more versatile, Blues, old rock ...
For now, I could try it on my Hughes and Kettner Edition Small Blue 15 Watts (very good little amp for that matter!) And my 8240 marshall expect but it is not in my apartment.
The sound is very pleasant for my ears rocker.
In his clear, fairly round, it looks like a Gibson typed in less anyway!
With distortion, it's for me it takes a true value, the pickups are good and delivers a powerful sound. The bass and midrange takes a little above the treble.
I suggest you listen to some rendering on the website:

Well, the sound is a bit much, guys are playing on amps and effects that are more expensive than my car (which says "it depends on the type of car?", Lol) but it can give you an idea.
in short I think I will not get tired!
OVERALL OPINION
It's been two days that I try in every way, making the tree right in my toilets, vacuuming ... short a time you have in your hands, hard disk of the rest!
I love the violin, mahogany set neck and do transmit sound, and vibration you can feel when the guitar is against you. The sound is really that I expected, I am not disappointed!
I tried and really hesitated with Ibanez SZ520QM https://www.ibanez.co.jp/world/country/frame_france.html
(Not bad too) but this one for more expensive Atrai least had characteristics but the sound was typed and I liked too.
This is a guitar at unbeatable value for money (see features at the beginning) finally, the ones I tried.
For now it's too early to say whether I would do this choice to see in 6 months, for the moment, it is on, no worries, the positions of the microphones and the possibilities make me think that I do not tire so soon!
