3 micro switch 5 position with more push / pull tone button (ie 10 mic positions!)
22 round boxes

UTILIZATION

Difficult to set the handle (I had the nerves of some luthier) it and end in the width of the frets and epai with a varnish that sticks to your hands after a minute of use.
Large number of microphone position (10 is a lot)

SOUNDS

Micro middle surplus especially when not affect the push / pull. By the microphone against acute neck pickup and its means. The micro acute lack of energy and the neck pickup is squarely down the volume on the guitar (too bad because the sound could be well clear sound).
No problem of feedback (well if you want to play with, of course).
The sustain is ok but not great.

OVERALL OPINION

I played with it for 10 years. I sold this year and I have not lost much since I had paid 7650 Fr (~ € 1,166) in January 1997 and I sold € 850 in April 2007.

Much more of this guitar is its micro environment which is really nice for any style of music.

The value price is right for this kind of guitar.

I regret not having tried more guitar at the time because in the end I never was really satisfied. Today I have a Fender Stratocaster Vintage 57 'with a microphone tone zone and I saw it!
