UTILIZATION

I had two. The first one I sold had a handle thinner than the second. The sound was not good. on the other hand I was surprised at the quality of the second vacuum: the thickening of the neck greatly improves the sound, especially bass.
I do not understand people who play better on a given round, it's a matter of habit, say 10 minutes: adapting the technique. This is the technique and not the handle. Obviously more action is high it is more difficult to synchronize left right. (I had the opportunity to see the ESP in 1994 P.Rondat closely and surprise, the strings were high!) In any case it is expected to scale with a 28.5 "to be a trend the frieze of the great rope at least. It takes a balanced adjustment of the handle and pulling enough: more rope is stretched thin it will be less for a given note.
Body shape ... I support this. Stein could have a little dig at the junction with the handle, at least-for the sake of his guitar with busted hand. I find it lacks some concave curve (that is bumps).

SOUNDS

Short round handle thicker = more consistent sound and Wood. for clean sounds the piezo must be combined with one or more microphones for clear sound and get some so-with an EMG SA. Measuring out as the bass / treble. We can not speak of "crystalline" anyway.
For metal ... why talk of his ...
I had a GM4S before and I did not like his easel Transterm (when the upsets ouh la la!), I prefer the long handle with his capo integrated easy to handle even in game

OVERALL OPINION

I've had it about 3 years and the first I've kept it a year. I paid less than the first: U.S. $ 460, including delivery + the inevitable customs fees and VAT (about 20% more). I ordered 8 sets of double-ball strings to be cushy. Now I think we can get them in Europe.
It is a machine apart and value for money is hard to say. Quality? Mechanical I give 10/10, finishing wood handle and it has nothing to folichon. But what's more irritating than a guitar that is afraid of damaging? Here you can play tennis with ... (back side)
