Guitar made ​​in Asia and designed by one of the luthiers of Fender.

Manufacturer's site:
http://www.switchmusic.com/guitar_view.aspx?start=true

Channel neck-thru-body (body and neck are one) composite material called "Vibracell" with rosewood fingerboard.

The stem of the handle is flexible in two directions (unlike many guitar which stem from bending in one direction) to an optimal setting of the handle. This is the same composition as that Team New Fender.

The "Vibracell" is a revolutionary material which has all the qualities of a wood "ideal" which the fibrous structure (fibers and empty), the density and weight are consistent. A dream come true ...

Assembled from a single piece of "VIBRACELL" and equipped with advanced technology, the SWITCH GUITARS meet all the qualities desired by the guitarist:

Strength-
Light-
-Handling
Sustain-
-Use

UTILIZATION

Handle very comfortable (one touch rosewood), very easy to play and rather thin.

Access to acute very easy.

The Vibracell makes this guitar a real lightweight compared to other traditional guitars, I am always shocked when I played with other guitars by their weight. It's great to play up because of its lightness, before I had a Charvel I destroyed it back every time. It is a perfectly balanced guitar, his little head does not tilt the guitar. Even when sitting, use is easy.

SOUNDS

Nickel play the big style metal and rock, the bridge pickup is very powerful. Suitable for other styles, too, is a versatile guitar.

There is a real difference in sound between two microphones which allows you to find full of sounds by fiddling the amp and effects.

Distortion in the bridge pickup is very hot, nickel to play palm-muting or rhythm, the neck pickup is rather to be reserved for solo and / or riffs (with a slight crunch or more).
In Clean, the bridge pickup tends to saturate a bit but for arpeggios ... it gives a round hot super nice, the neck pickup is better in the clean sound is terrible.

OVERALL OPINION

What I like most is to sustain this material (the Vibracell) and the handle on which all the most dangerous stunts themselves go!

The quality / price is great: € 320 for a guitar of this quality, I would do the choice is clear!
