UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, not too thin and flattened dos.Le handle is screwed and the junction is at the 15th case (about 22) so that this guitar is destined to play more rhythmic solo. For the form, I find it beautiful, no angle, it is all rounded, I love. on the other hand it's annoying because it involved sitting slides ... As for weight, it is not too heavy but not light either, it suits me very bien.Elle is very well balanced, I use it with a strap planet waves joe satriani and it does not look up when I play. The only downside in this category use the tremolo is cool, it's fun and you can play around with the front guys but it's a lot of tune guitare.Je think I'll install from here little mechanical self-blocking, that should fix the problem. 8 / 10 Edit a week of use later: the vibrato of tune almost did not, I think it was necessary that the strings become accustomed to the use of vibrato so I put a little 9 / 10

SOUNDS

I play mostly rock (indochine, muse ,...) and metal (rammstein ,...). It should be more rock / hard rock than metal (the microphones do not have a huge level of output). I use a vox DA5 with a boss ME20. In clean, bridge pickup is slamming, and dry with the neck pickup is round and warm, full bass but very precise. In crunch is not bad, all the notes come out. In disto is very clear regardless of the microphone used, and the harmonics of partout.Néanmoins fuse, it's still light enough to make the metal nag. 9 / 10

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for almost a week, I fell in love when I saw it in stores. The pros: the shape, sound, playability and -: the vibrato, the lack of potato in saturated fat is my third guitar, my first "medium range" and I am more than happy. At least 500 euros (less than 400 for me because the salesman gave me a price), the price / quality ratio is more than good. With experience, I would do this after a few months of use: always happy, she made a short stay at the luthier to get put a pickguard, luthier told me that the violin was very good
