UTILIZATION
Thin U Neck Contour ... CAD that the handle is not wide or ultra flat as can be jackson vigier or ultra ... it fits nicely in the hand, fast and super comfortable!
ergonomics is excellent access to the treble is very easy.
The volume knob is very gradual so that (in combination with mini-split switch) a wide range of sound, and not only dedicated to the metal!
SOUNDS
the slap splitted clean, bluesy crunch of ... without forgetting that seymour send the puree without distortion beings screaming ... I use it with a Marshall YJM 100 malmsteen and it is full up!
OVERALL OPINION
I use since July 2011 (this is the original model ... not the ESP LTD copy )
The pros:
+ Fast and comfortable handle
+ Varied sounds, extreme versatility!
* The look!
+ Inserts flames on the handle
+ Esp hard case with certificate of conformity
the -:
- Rosewood fingerboard ... not dark enough for my taste, it will come with time?
- Location of the connection of the jack (obviously changed on the new model)
- The jack screw loosening despite multiple attempts at tightening, the screw and the selection knob micro ... a detail, but we can do better at this price!
