Made in Korea, this guitar has a beautiful violin well finished, for the most demanding wood squarely rest but lack even the les paul acutelles not based so unless he has the habit of putting in a 2500 Roros vigier I would say it's good stuff.
Tune-o-matic classic 4 pots for two humbuckers (AH1, AH2) (tone and volume by microphones) a move from a micro switch to the other (cool) and Split ...

handle not very far from a les paul maple glued in, 22 boxes, rosewood fingerboard, nice inlay parallelograms without (in feature).

Copra is mahogany, beautiful form (here we like it or not XD)
I really like the color contour creme of this guitar gives it a pretty face almost vintage.
no but no defau for painting is simple and clean very well finished with a perfect continuity between the handle and copra.
button color at the origin is very ugly, I have replaced the same in gold
ca makes it pretty well .

In short, good wood (without abusing) good looks and well finished except for buttons, I put 7 to everyone understands that this is a guitar mid-range level characteristics.

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, I "reassuring" almost when I stand before uen hundred people. access to the treble is not so obvious that everyone says, it's easy, but I've seen better now.
the form does not confer a most commendable ergonomics but, for once, I've seen worse.

Do you get a good sound easily ?...=> seeing it say anything that ... the pots are eficaces mics react normally and basically seeing what is obtained without breaking the skull (you just have spent 4 years to find his sound on the amp you prefer ...)

I put 9 because the guitar is really fun to play the point and less complication is due to the form.

SOUNDS

This guitar suits all styles of music, also in the case of all the guitars ... I admit that with a good ES (gibson) ARTCORE (ibanez) ale is hard to get out of heavy metal, but with this kind of guitar is not all play, the fingers do the work passes the guitar ...

I play in repeated on a JCM 800 for plupar time, and it's not really obvious seri no pedals haha ​​I'm out with the jug a little shot at the saturation, I split my microphones to play clean without excessive force on the strings, and I put in and I Burin bridge to enter the saturated ...

me and my gigs, I play on AD100VT VOX amp models (that's how Quon said?) the amp is very nice whatever distorts a little bit my guitar (a little bit, j 've tried other and we voi clairment the diference between them this: D)

then we get to the point of negative IC 400 I think the bridge pickup lacks clarity and output dynamics, little is seri expect to play no problem with that death, but do not plop it but ca will not necessarily s'ya as expected, it is exellent for the iron maiden, Blues-Rock, blues and other styles not extremists but the lack of dynamics and clarity in the bass from attacking and seriously blurs a bit the game. Celas said even when I'm having a play ...

I put 9 because the sounds are really good in general and returned it sounds the matron

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few years and hihi
I like its shape, it is elegant and rageante a time (in fact to make the comparison with a girl would be a beautiful woman ca elegant clearly focused on the sex)

what I like least is paradoxically its shape as it leaves too many people believe that it is tailored only for the metal, while not ... and the bridge pickup a little soft

I tested full of stuff did before after purchase, les paul, sg, stratum, Cort, musicman petrucci (divine for that matter) even the white falcon (but the one I tried it for the prestige: D)
dejas but I knew that's why I wanted IC400? report qualitéprix undeniable (I got it for 680 euros), even by anti golios Ibanez brand crap that pollutes the market by its quality guitars trivial shit (I should point out the irony)
form, the original sound monstrous, but not very playable
it's not a guitar purist, this is not a guitar for people calm and consistent it is not even a guitar to sound eccentric and it is certainly not a guitar for you, because it is cut for me ... who am I? a Mongoloid 20 years
I would put eight to unemoyenne drinking)
