Korean PRS 22 frets, finish excellent for the price (800 €).
Pickups: 2 humbucker PRS
Bridge: With or without vibrato to choose from - typical PRS bridge in one piece (the two are the same price).
2 knobs: volume and tone
A micro switch 3 positions: serious, grave / acute, acute.

UTILIZATION

The guitar is light and fits perfectly standing as sitting. It is surprisingly light, although less than SG but is not far away. Access to acute is excellent, with cutting PRS standard at this level.
Nothing to special about ergonomics, classic and flawless.

The handle is 'fast' and a pleasant one! The guitar in its price range is unbeatable if you want a scratch double humbuckers versatile enough to rock. I find it incredible compared to other choices on the market!

For soloists against attentions, nothing to do with a Les Paul sustain level. But it was not named in this direction.

SOUNDS

I use a BOSS GT-6 on different amps (mostly Marshall JCM900 or 2000), and clear the sound is impressive for a guitar in this range. In saturated is very correct. Seriously I do not ever leave it, after more than six months.

OVERALL OPINION

I have the equipment for more than six months, I used every day and it always makes me much tripper until 3am. A marvel for its price in the style of guitar I was looking, well above concurrent. The clean sound is very good, but it also provides in saturated and in the end is quite versatile. And can move with particularly well: it is extremely well balanced and is positioned prafaitement, in addition to being lightweight and therefore easily manipulated.
Before choosing this style I tried everything I could find as guitars of this style 800 to € 1100, Ibanez to Gibson, and by far the PRS stood out by its handle, its homogeneity and its excellent! As for the price, it is one of the lowest face what other brands offer in the face.
So of course if I had the choice again, I always retry as many models, buying a guitar is not made lightly, but for now I know nothing that approaches the quality / price ratio and I would choose again. A big favorite! And to think I almost did not try to name ...
