Total before labsence inform decision about this guitar on the web (dj had trouble finding a picture for product details) I dun break my opinion which wants to be a more technical description of the guitar quune REALLY personal opinion (not yet had time to take men back of this guitar)
This notice will set a few days (as is all my opinion)

Economic version of the Gibson MIII ( )
Alder body
Bolt in Saddle: head reverse banana reported
Rosewood 24 frets in tune Fender (255)
Mini Jumbo frets a little style without being carrbr Gibson /> Trapze Reprinted as Les Paul, but plastic and not well adjusted, you can see the glue
Licensed Floyd, mechanical unnamed saddle block chords
Ring Volume + (with a circuit spcial)
Slecteur 5 positions
Switch 2 positions (Retailer Operating in Using)
2 doubles and a single Epiphone

It&#39;s small diffrence lEpiphone of EM-1 (% https://fr.audiofanzine.com/produits/index 2Cidproduit 2C32857.html%) of the prsence Floyd, Lem- 1 (https://www.gibson.com/products/epiphone/archive/solidbody/9.html) as it dotedun Start type tremolo.

The woods are correct trs (we quickly basswood and poplar)
The Epiphone pickups, dune Manir gnrale: blah!
Laccastillage Epiphone, dor here, dune Manir gnrale: medium
Lutherie correct by laying back

UTILIZATION

The handle is trs cool, very large but easy to play! I think its a compromise between a Gibson neck Slim Taper neck and a 1960 Jackson!
Systm fixing the body / handle and shape are such that linstrument CCAA treble is excellent because the heel begins the 19th case and the handle sencastre litt generally in the body as a set neck but reinforced with 4 screws! The body of 21me comments box at the bass string and 22me at the upper strings!

The guitar is well balance, nor can it be that the horn suprieure moderately comfortable sitting but I quibble!

The purpose of this guitar is both dobtenir sounds Fender Start and Gibson Les Paul sound! Do prsence of the two switch positions in a position that gives the three microphones simple and exactly the same combinations as a Start! Lautre position and the switch switches only two humbuckers which gives the configuration dune Les Paul, the 4th position of the microphone giving slecteur cbl with acute diffrent (the filter Tone knob for both active), the 5th position gives no sound: Friends of Tom Morello hello.
It has 9 sounds + the possibility of making silent guitar with only 2 switches! Trs guitar so versatile while remaining simple OF USE;)

The Schematic of DIFFERENT sounds depending on the positions of the switches:

SOUNDS

Sounds empty
Alder body Bolt Saddle + / rosewood Fender + + pitch vibrato, Obviously we are in the kind of sound type Fender Start and not at all in the kind Gibson Les Paul. A bit less true slamming quune Start can be

Electric sound:
For me jai bought my MS-2 micro without acute at this time put a DiMarzio jai jai cbl X2N that only a single volume knob and switch 2 positions to original post switch to simple short not combining original post!
I do not mexprimerais original post on the sound of the guitar nayant not test the microphones Epiphone. Moreover, I immediately find the DiMarzio X2N on this guitar, so I limped dun comment on the sound of the electric guitar and sound possibilities in the practice of the original electronic

OVERALL OPINION

Personally jadore:
The profile of the handle
CCAA dernires boxes to handle exceptional vissbr /> The look
Lergonomie (from micro intermdiaire blah, blah and volume knob)
The range of sounds (on paper not a true test)

Otherwise, an Epiphone Heiniger cest ben! What not a Gibson, do not RVer for the same price when.

This notice will be complt ultrieurement ...
