Everything has been said. The finishes are really a notch above its class guitars (ibanez etc ...) with round ebony fingerboard, neat electronic (welding, assembly and wiring of the pickups, and piezo pickup combinations. At 800 euros new, it really good stuff for this price range. I put 9.

UTILIZATION

The handle ... for me it is one of the highlights of the scratches, super comfortable, fast, is a bit of vigier in its (former owner of a vigier sniff ...) and not worry about Notes from the bottom of the handle against the advice below, must be scratching his address, that's all.
Overall the interface is very well thought, sitting and standing, it is besides the guitar that I find most enjoyable to play while standing ... but not too light, great balance.
For ergonomic knobs is not bad but it takes some getting used to juggling the 13 combinations (only humbuckers, splitter, piezo alone or in combination with humbuckers).

SOUNDS

Sides ... sounds to me is the second highlight of the scratch, there are 13 combinations of piezo and humbuckers. We spend a large disto type LP with humbuckers, sounds clear to those fendériens Split humbuckers via push-pull and then we end up sound via the piezo sound is super versatile.
After you end up trying to mix piezo and humbuckers and the Ben you come across that sounds not think this scratches especially clear with the humbucker and piezo splitted ... kind of sounds like a fender tele or excellent for play SRV or Hendrix. The sounds are neither cold nor metal (must adjust his amp that's all :-) however I tend to agree to try to change the humbuckers (with Duncan or DiMarzio is a killer is on ) has provided you have the stuff that goes behind the ears ... and to make a difference.

OVERALL OPINION

I have a few months and in view of sound, the playability and build quality compared to the price that P44 is at the top. Having had a lot of guitars, this one surpasses her cousins ​​fendérienes, gibsonnienes ibanezienes and (in the same price ranges of course).
One downside, the importer distributes poorly (see forum P44), it is not easy to find and little-known music stores (see forum too).
Suffice to say that I Gallery to find mine.

With experience, I make the same choice with eyes closed. And with a budget of over? Ben NITEFLY a FLY or (Besides if I found a vigier bouhhh)
