Impossible to solder directly into the cavity like any other guitar, it will unscrew the screw push pull knob to remove the hatch and weld al outside the cavity.

UTILIZATION

The handle is big enough, comfortable, my grip is good, the handle is larger and more resistant than the BC Rich that I have been there ten years.

The frets are well worked, no sharp edges.
Fret not misplaced, everything is perfectly aligned.

Ebony is the key for me first, c is very pleasant, that feeling of "fat", "smoothness" is very comfortable, nothing to do with the keys rosewood.

The guitar is a V shape, so well balanced, it does not sting the nose and no moving parts at least with a good strap nubuck.

There is no repere button and anyway when you have the cheek standing, it is placed almost perpendicular to the ground, it does not see the button, but only the portion of the handle, on which there are forms of reperes point.

More if you play a good height, it al comes to forearms caller in the groove

The access to acute is the same as on a bc rich Jr V, c is nice but this is not so accessible that one or that one Warlock ibanez RG.

For sound, the guitar did that a volume which acts as a push-pull, so you know what to expect s.

The volume is calle below the bridge pickup, c is rare to decrease the volume by mistake, but I find that it turns too easily mean by that just one finger to rotate it without pressing it.

Over the hatch knob is tiny, it is just the place to put the knob and surround son around, removing the caution.

Impossible to solder directly into the cavity like any other guitar, it will unscrew the screw push pull knob to remove the hatch and weld al outside the cavity.






SOUNDS

For death metal, perfectly fits the mahogany, rendering very low load and acute mics of origin, see very pronounced treble.
The original mics sound very powerful.

In bridge, we lack nothing if n is that I have found a lack of obvious medium in comparison to the dominance of bass and treble.

The neck pickup sounds great in clear, warm, rich, I&#39;m in love distortion also, I&#39;m not talking about 100 years since (HS ON)

"J I pulled the knob to the off, only there was a BTR j .. so I hard that I used as a switch, it only remains for me the bridge to accessible ...
J have redeemed a push pull 500K that I have not yet re soda to have access to my micro grave. "
J editerais at this moment.

The origins tear mics but I have therefore changed the bridge pickup for a seymour invader SH8 that I had in stock.

C is the charge recess again become low and medium and less acute, pulling my 13-64 am helping my erradiquer treble.

I play on a Marshall double body ValveState 8240

The sonority that is that I prefer c when I put everything back.





OVERALL OPINION

Features: 7

-1 For the bridge pickup that lacks medium
-1 For push pull, a push-push switch or would have been welcome
-1 For the access hatch tiny knob

Use: 9

-1 For access to acute

Sound: 8

-2 For microphones, I removed one point each as they are good and powerful but lacks punch medium BUT on a guitar is 900 euros, is expected microphones "professional" type Seymour Duncan, DiMarzio, etc. ..

I scratch for 12 years, is my 5th c dugout.

The peculiarity that I prefer this guitar is definitely the key ebony gives me comfort touch very appreciable.

I would do without this choice problem, this BC Rich is same range as the Deluxe Jr. V NJ series warlock and NT of a few years ago.

To summarize this guitar is excellent, very pleasant to the touch, sitting playable if wearing a belt if one plays academic way.

Microphones sends heavy, there is no need to necessarily change as a ibanez but it is a big plus for the metal.

The access to the tweeter is classic shapes V.


The only real negative points are that damn absolutely sucks and push pull door knob was pokey that does not really want to send in the hands welds.

A good 8 out of 10
