Very nice cosmetic finish is nickel!
UTILIZATION
A handle really flat and very thin, thinnest of all my guitars and configured Neck Set allows easy access to acute boxes. However the finish is nowhere near my other guitars, frets taglines maliciously and that is not top at all!
: ((
Finally, the satin finish seems to me less comfortable than a patent application and an adjustment period when you've never played this type of finish! It slips less!
A guitar very light and well balanced.
Near-perfect sound! Heuuu .... no! Perfect sound!
The vibrato is far from offering the performance freedom of a Floyd Rose but it does it anyway!
SOUNDS
The highlight of this guitar, this is not the sound but it has the sounds! Very amazing what can be achieved with different configurations of microphones!
Equally at home in its clear that distortion, the sound is always clean and neat and beautiful!
We can all play with, it's versatile guitar par excellence!
OVERALL OPINION
Acquired in early March, I'm still in the discovery and learning. However, initial tests have confirmed what I have read on other reviews, the pickups are really good and give a sound very clean and very versatile!
Purchased to complete a set configuration and profile a Strato V BC RICH BEAST Set Thru itself, I decided to follow this good advice to read it and! But irrevocably oriented Metal, I was not too attracted to Indian Summer finish or Wild Cherry. Photos of the black finish matched perfectly to my tastes. Wishing to use it mainly for playing solos, it is still far from the comfort of the BEAST V in terms of finish but the architecture of the handle provides ease of play over the BEAST!
