Gibson SG type guitar, I would say pulling a bit to the Les paul twin cut.
I took it in hand because it was well done, without appreciating the look more than that.
I really thought my dealer was wrong on the label!
Made in China, and they have reason to be proud of:
The cabinet is beautiful, period.
The journal of detail is flattering.
(Like her sister ARC-500, and all Ibanez set neck in 2007.)
The mahogany neck is visibly thin, much more than that of the body, flamed maple carved table.
Body-neck junction glued and shaped perfectly.
Binding on the side table and round, tortoiseshell inlay on the handle.
Very deep gloss. We want to play.
Silet Bone, frets molded round toe, perfectly aligned and glued.
Ibanez Humbucker Pickups type 58 'péchus and full of harmonics.
Two volumes and one tone, no split.
All very well built, tight, and welded (I opened).
The rest is very simple and classic:
- Bridge type but not against LP-nut
- Cordier could not be more basic, but providing a good conductive cords / table.
- Small flat on the gold (to taste) and especially the media microphone plasticky ivory, they swear. (This is not what is best to copy the old LP).
To summarize: A cabinet and microphones at the top, the rest is basic.
(My notes are in relation to the price)
UTILIZATION
First I had to hand his cousin ARC-500, the template strict Les Paul.
The ARX is lighter, but not quite a true SG.
It is a compromise very successful, because with the set neck gives it sustain, whaooo.
The low E is easily more than 30sec.
The upper horn is a little longer, making it perfectly balanced, is often criticized for SG.
The handle profile changing is the best I've ever had in hand, after trying many guitars, from 500 to 2000 €.
It is not like other Ibanez, very thin and fine, which did not suit me at all with my big fingers.
On this one any better than going on my first Strat-type guitar.
Take the test:
Try this one on a trick play that goes on your difficult thing.
Every time you find it easier on the ARX.
Anyone who prettée I said the same thing.
Access to acute is very easy, body-neck junction is a true success.
Hard to beat in comfort.
HH configuration is classic and effective.
Whatever his desired, the microphones work wonders.
Moreover it does not Disagree.
In short, that's good, I still have not found any defects in or comfort, or in sound.
Quibble I would have liked in the same micro-adjustable tailpiece on the ARC500, but I think it had to be compensation for the beautiful flamed table for the same price canon.
SOUNDS
It sounds great.
To be honest I bought it only for the cabinet, thinking of changing the hardware and microphones if it does not suit me perfectly.
No, the pickups are very good.
They are very similar to Gibson 57 and 57 +, they are very good.
It snaps, it's punchy and end, and I discovered all the time harmonics.
She has a great range of sounds, much more than what I thought initially without splits.
It is excellent Jazzy, funky, and it is crunch Royal Rock and hard rock without going to the trash. (It should leave that to the EMG, which are far to return as many harmonics also.)
I like the sounds range from clean "diamonds" to the distos type AC / DC, which never tires. Between the two she knows everything.
I use it on a small Roland amp modeling and a Peavey Royal 8 to King preamp lamp, and as far as I can about other famous amps.
Connected to a Molossian (hand-made Made in Lorraine), you know ... Ooch!, there would be for days to discover the possibilities.
This guitar likes the lights, it is in effect or amplifier.
It sounds particularly good effect in a Vox Big Ben Overdrive, and with a tube amp or Hybrid.
I also run a stronger pulling strings.
