Value For Money : Excellent
Audience: Beginners
As nuncio lowest configuration is standard (22 frets, 4-button type switch Gibson, two humbuckers, short, simple and effective), but we can not qu'tre admiration for the care to handle port. Otherwise meaningless level design: the body is sensual trs (!), The finish is polished down (especially with the color red) ... Basically a good quality price ratio, even if still a classic. (No ide o is produced on the other hand)

UTILIZATION

The handle provides comfort rare in touch the frets are smooth trs, the optimum width, the transition to acute perfect. Only lightweight BMOL: the high E string is sometimes a tendency to cling to freight at bends a little too adventurous in the acute ... This problem happened to me many times on the so-MODEL better report it ... The weight is reasonable (Gibson sg fans, you will understand me), even if it could destabilize the dpart - this is my electric guitar Premire Acquisition level, and poor balance of the body the handle makes it a bit uncomfortable standing in the Premire week - note that if the strap is not properly fixed, you may have bad surpise of the ergonomics of the guitar ... Personally I think she is made to play sitting, although I use it still standing.
Paralllement, the sound is enjoyable, clean, can be more rough than the strato imitations, for example, but instead offers a gentle when using the clean sound I find rev apprciable ( especially when the switch is placed in the bridge pickup). Indeed - and this is what I find INTERESTED guitar for this price range - the gax70 has a sound tural identity, both for crunch and distortion sounds as the basis for clean sounds . And with a multi-effects pedals, even low-end, we get easily the INTERESTED.

SOUNDS

This guitar followed me a lot during training progressive guitar / bass / drums. Addition on my Pod xt live and my Peavy amp 100 watts, it is perfectly suited to the style of music fits perfectly with the effects, yet ahead of my pod (all effects flangers make trs VERY well ). The same note at a constant blowing on the amp (even if it is low), leaving close the rough finish of the guitar ... The main problem in the RSID distorted sounds for which there is unfortunately a little fiddling his amp and pedals to avoid the sound fat and heavy dsagrable quickly. Nevertheless, its ease of CASC and fast discovering is that good sound is a atirail choice for beginners and exprimentaux.

OVERALL OPINION

Guitar I advise strongly to beginners because it is at the beep, the report qualitprix, design, simplicity of the crushing sound of the machine, and especially in the neck indeed, really comfortable (we soon fell in love!), the gax70 knows how dfendre. I use it for several years now and I think its ease of use has t gal as the Variax 700 and trs trs premium. But do not expect an extremely thin and his prcis, overall, it is as complete, the hardware is cheap destiny sell up to novices. ..
