UTILIZATION

The handle is very comfortable to play, an exemplary finish for the price.
Ergonomics is very good, playing comfort (sitting as standing) with the overall balance & harmony rather the lightness of the guitar.
Access to acute is easy
in the spirit of the brand, this is not a complicated guitar very "sixties" in mind.

SOUNDS

This guitar is completely my approach: a classic rock sound, light, vintage, typed but flexible & versatile: Clear where with a bit of overdrive, it's easy to orient differently: everything that goes through your head except maybe metal, it does not really designed for heavy distos swallow. ditto for vibrato, which can physically withstand bends bombings and violent, it offers just a slight ripple but very nice, the return position is right.
This is perhaps one of the more nuanced models Danelectro (basswood body)
she wonders out without violently attack the strings, the sounds are rich and singing without forcing it's good, it's my approach :-)
I love to play in position 1 +2 microphones (standard) & twangy fat at once.

OVERALL OPINION

I play regularly since late 2010.
I have not tried tons of models before, but I knew what I wanted with a limited budget (I bought other models from the same brand).
This is a simple and generous, I love the aesthetics, at least for the aluminum plate suspended knobs, a little lighter, but hey, it's a guitar cheap!
The value is great.
With experience, I would do this choice.
