DeArmond M65

The 65 m DeArmond is a guitar manufacturer in the States, private label bought by Fender Guild
has 22 frets with two microphones origins of type double coil humbuckers
the handle is a bit wider than on home ibanez MODELS (for trying ^ ^), it easily lends itself to games of taping
classic floyd bridge without the strings are changed in the same way as on an acoustic guitar

UTILIZATION

Handle very enjoyable legeremnt rounded behind (you get used to playing fast even on flat handle)
Access in acute faculae in form (no horn gene)
it's still a very slight solidbody, it has a slight tendency to pitch down when you sit
The settings are simple the Quick we do not break your head to get the sound that is sought

SOUNDS

I play instead of Metallica, Deftones etc and it suits me parfaitment. Play jazz seems to me not a good idea with this guitar because it tres este rock axis
a book of his fans to clear the stinging solos and big distos for the rest.
Uses a Marshall Valvestate 30W, the sound is clear distortion (no notes disapraissent ds game) with a touch of brilliance, I've also tested on a Peavey Bandit 100W and bass response and very good for a guitar of its range

OVERALL OPINION

Used for 2 years
J'aime bcp's easy to get quickly the sound that you desire
Rapoport very good quality at this price line that can attedre of a new guitar to 600
J have tried at least a dozen models in the same range PRICES AND I would choose again because it allowed me to cross surtt levels fairly quickly and to enjoy myself playing.

American brand renowned in the manufacture of guitar pickups for Gibson, Gretsch etc. .., which began in the 90s to produce good quality guitars assembled in Asia
humbuckers with volume, tone and a 3 position selector

UTILIZATION

The ergonomics of this guitar is excellent, it is very light because the body is thin enough
The handle is super comfortable and fast
increase in the 10/48 game is enjoyable action rather low and very precise
we get a very good sound quickly because the adjustments are rudimentary (one volume, one tone)

SOUNDS

The sound of this guitar suits me perfectly, it is in a register rather rock, blues and even hard rock without a problem but the pickups (very good) are still vintage style with a crunchy mortal, sounds very clear slap (sometimes close to single coils) with which it is possible to get a jazzy sound playing on the tone of the guitar and amp.
for lead, no problems in heavy metal music, beyond this is not my cup of tea ...
In short, this guitar is very polyvalant plugged into a cube 30, it revisits (presque. ..) the whole history of rock!

OVERALL OPINION

I tried almost everything that exists in the field of electric guitar, from low to high end of any brand (Fender, Gibson, Gretsch etc. ..) and I must say that this small unpretentious DeArmond is up of what one would expect of a good guitar, especially since its price is attractive, sold about 600 € it seems new, this guitar must be on the market at around 200 OCCAZ € what remains excellent value for money even though some details like the quality of the plastics (edges of microphones, plate truss rod) is fairly cheap, good sound and stringed instrument is not thereby affected . only downside, the DeArmond is scarce ..
my assessment takes account of the recess value for money ..
