UTILIZATION

Good sustain, good handle, good sound ...
I admit I do not understand the comments precedents??
Indeed, the ergonomics is not on top and you must learn to use the beast knowing that it takes a little time to adapt (as my martin backpacker). Personally, I play without standing problem, and sat resting on the right leg, and c is a party ...
Check out the test on the net. It sounds this guitar, especially with a saturation!
Try there with a good amp and you will be surprised.
For this price, c is present.

I play both in my sofa, that in repeated and ... Even on stage.

SOUNDS

It suits my musical style (classic rock!)

You understand.

OVERALL OPINION

6 or 7 years, and it does not plank at all, and it does not move.

If I would do this choice? J redeem a second well in another color.

It's a cheap travel guitar, made in China, a bill is very simple:
- About 85 cm long, a box of 25x15cm and a custom cover;
- A handle 24 cases, of normal size, with average mechanical quality, which are nevertheless pretty good agreement;
- A prominent bridge, no tremolo (I personally prefer);
- A side humbucker bridge with a pretty good output level and no snoring;
- A volume knob, one tone knob;

Mechanical finishing is very poor, I had to reattach the shield of the table, which tended to drop out. For cons, I did not have to redo the welds potentiometers or microphones.

UTILIZATION

The handle is quite nice, flat and not too wide. Given the size of the box, the guitar is completely unbalanced and tends to tip the winning side when standing cheek, which does not facilitate access to acute ... The kind of joke that makes the guitar difficult to use on stage.

For the price, do not expect miracles: the raw sound is quite flat. With a microphone glued to the bridge, the tone knob is very effective: we move from a very muffled sound to a sound rich in harmonics.

SOUNDS

I use it in the crunch and moderately full, on a Pocket Pod with headphones: it sounds more acceptable. The clean sounds are more personality out of the guitar, so they are rather flat. The position of the microphone gives a very rich in harmonics, and stiffness of the neck and body provide good sustain.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a month in extra guitar (my main guitar is a Telecaster).

The very small size makes it ideal for travel (in its cover, it goes smoothly as baggage) or play sprawled on the sofa.

The value is good: for a little over a hundred euros, I find the gear musically very convenient, even if you have to work a little on it to finish because of deplorable.

Despite its limitations (clear sound disappointing, poor balance), I would buy without hesitation for its convenience.

Made in China;
Body and handle al Maple / Maple
Rosewood.
Configuration microphones: 1 Humbucker.
Slecteur rglage: 1 volume, 1 tone.

The finish is correct without more, I had to reattach the jack, a screw was removed (a default without much climbing.

The body is red and black head, c'tait not want to, i was not happy at the time, but finally I am super happy because it gives a certain cachet and a beautiful face! )

UTILIZATION

The handle is great, it's easy to play a real round.
CASC to treble is quite satisfactory.

The sound is absolutely correct!

It does not dsaccorde unless there is unfortunately a very sensitive touch the mechanics.

It's a guitar made for playing on a couch or sprawled on his bed and it's really the comfort!

It is lgre and not at all cumbersome. Happiness!

SOUNDS

Plutt metal, I think the humbucker plays well her role in distortion and very pleasant in s'avre clean.

I bought a living room amp (Line 6 Spider) which agrees very well with!

OVERALL OPINION

I fvrier since 2010 and it does not leave my room, all while sitting close from my couch.
dmangent my fingers and presto I catch, turns on the amp and get started, a riff goes through my head and hop ... let's go and effortlessly.

As I read it also is a lazy guitar!
)

That said, I also play on a Fender Telecaster, an American Kramer Pacer Custom II (my collector) and a BC Rich Dark Arts LATEST Warlock, all standing or sitting in my mini studio)

The report seems to me excellent quality price to use as I do. Play is not standing up, play couch is nirvana! !

A remake I would do it without hesitating. That's exactly what I wanted, neither more nor less!
