zamboulou « a good scratch »
Published on 10/14/13 at 09:30Guitar German manufacturing
Solid basswood body, for 350 €, you can imagine that it's good lime ...
ok this is not a mahogany / maple LP mahogany but a shovel at this price, need to ask questions about the quality of the wood (from, drying, etc..).
Maple set neck, rosewood fingerboard, 22 frets, inlays V VGS (or rather VIG) button
2 Humbucker EMG HZ
3-way switch, 2 volumes, 1 tone
Tune-O-Matic and Stop Tailpiece
Mechanical oil bath
UTILIZATION
Guitar weighs a little but this is a LP style .. access to 2, 3 last unclear notes, for (very) few times I go there, it is a mental and physical preparation!
Good performance of the agreement, knobs at your fingertips and quite progressive
SOUNDS
lime does not color the sound a lot, it is the shape and microphones that will really express themselves.
I will not describe the EMG but an idea, the bridge compares the SH-4 with less harmonics and less heat gain remains the same. the neck pickup is not great with distortion. They are passive.
The guitar is so versatile, funk to hard rock, with a high gain amp no problem for Metal (yeah it's EMG eh). playing with volumes, it gets away with a good blues / rock.
I play a attax preamp (clean and drive to transo tube) to a 15w lamps where I use the power stage and a princeton chorus (125w stereo) and attax 80 (all transo)
The sound may seem cold to some, the neck pickup is a weak point in the setting. But for entry-level "real" guitar, versatility is there and this guitar can be a gateway (and move towards a style) for someone who wants to get rid of its Chinese 100 €
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 4 years. In a similar line I tried other models (all forms, microphones, wood, etc.). Before buying but when the seller filed in my hands, I had a pinch. ..
This is a good guitar overall, but not light and versatile microphones in good order (a good mid-range)
Good balance quality / price! And especially ... it's mouth! This is a guitar that you see everywhere.
With the same budget, I will look at what is happening now and perhaps in Cygnus' must poke a little, but I know I will not regret this choice by repeating!
