It is normally indicated on the data sheet of the guitar Made in Japan, but the guitar itself is seen Made in China ... Anyway, this is an more or less neglected as people ...

Oriental Mahogany body
Maple neck-in
Ebony
24 Frets, landmarks "inlaid clouds"
3 knobs volume / volume / tone
A 3-position selector
2 humbuckers BC RICH versatile rather casually.
Tune-O-Matic

The violin is good. But I put 9 because of the confusion Made in China / Japan.

UTILIZATION

Channel impeccable. Strings near the neck, frets access to 22, 23 and 24 incredibly easy. The form is BEAUTIFUL !!!!! (Hide influence of X-Japan). The only drawback: it pitches down, because of the tie strap that is behind the guitar. But it is not very serious because you'll quickly get used to. Anyway, my first surprise was to see that it is rather slight. The sound is rather simple to obtain. However, for those who like to play acute, faloir will mount the trebles and bass cut. But nothing important to do.

SOUNDS

As for sound, BA nothing to say, it sounds good! The sound is rather serious, normal, micro BC RICH. But the pickups are rather versatile. Rock, punk, metal, blues ... That's what I was looking for! Well I play on a crappy little amp (Fender Frontman 15W), but in the studio on a Marshall 100W Tube! There SOUND! Personally, I play with a BOSS ME-50. In Overdrive (OD-3) for the riffs, chords, etc. I like to use the bridge pickup, about the solo I think the neck pickup is more suitable. So to saturation, the pickups are good, I wonder why people tend to change their microphones BC RICH against the EMG, these bases are very friendly. For the clean sound, again, nothing to say. Neck position for a smooth and quite serious, the bridge position for a clearer, more vivid. In short, whether or Drive Clean, there is a perfect account.

OVERALL OPINION

It'll be a week that I, and it will be a week of intensive guitar! What I like about this guitar is the shape and color (I red), and of course the sound. The only flaw is that it pitches down, but hey it's not very bad. I wanted to change the guitar, then I fell in love with it. This is after several opinions and information that I have chosen it. The shape and the violin have it all. It is not sold in France, I have been totally imported from the United States. Guitar coutée my € 560 but with shipping € 640. It's a choice I would do without hesitation!
