Very good violin throughout, very easy to change strings, it might have missed a vibrato but not too much in mind, perhaps ...

UTILIZATION

- Being a bit like Les Paul, this guitar is perfect for large good rhythm (as well as Metal Reggae). But, perhaps due to a compromise between a Les Paul and an SG, this guitar provides access to acute IDEAL! Easy to move from a big fat rhythm to a good solo or soft and tender, or tapping a small family followed by a nice arpeggio ... The handle is very nice, hard to leave!
- Very versatile guitar. It was one of my search, and I must say that I am not disappointed! I can play everything on this guitar, it's done! It is suitable for solo guitar as rhythmic and almost every style.
- Although it is considered in the category "Other" Idol's Gothika is as I said a bit of a compromise between a Les Paul and SG. It is thinner than a Les Paul, more than a SG, much lighter than a Les Paul, SG unless (it does absolutely no pic of the nose), the rhythmic pass like a Les Paul, the SG as a solo ...
- It is very easy to get a good sound (with microphones like a violin and quality ^ ^).

SOUNDS

- Yes, Seymour Duncan United States! Big double its insured with microphones, the ideal (to be enjoyable), a very clean and sharp!
- When you want to switch to lighter sounds, do not worry, a little gem called VCC allows you to split the pickups of your choice (in other words the "transform" into microphones simple), we obtain a more crystalline . This makes us a highly versatile guitar, you can go through all the styles while enjoying really all you are doing! Well, it is certain that doing small adjustments in Live should be a little restrictive, but what happens in the end it's worth it!
- I play a Roland Cube 15 (there's no more basic), and a Zoom 606 effects that helps my amp well rotted ^ ^ I go through lots of styles, needless to say that Hard we are sure to find its happiness!

OVERALL OPINION

- I own this guitar for 2 days (so I edit as needed me ^ ^) and I'm really pleased.
- I love its versatility, great handle, special ergonomics, its sounds, its style, as a whole, the violin ... I can not find a single flaw. Oh yes, perhaps the absence of incrustations (cases 3,5,7,9,12 ...) that would have been desirable to find me more easily (as we must get used to it quickly). Well there are of very small on the side (useful when playing bass guitar), but it is not enough. (Oula it really is a detail: p)
- A great value! My budget could not achieve the 600-700 (the price to which are the first guitaes excellent). And since I wanted a good guitar anyway, I came across this Washburn Wi65 Idol Gothika and I found my happiness
- I tried a G400, a Les Paul Studio Gothic ... but I wanted a better model with little more than my budget, I am fallen!
- With experience (admittedly Tree Court xD), I would do this choice, yes, I have no regrets. Do not be fooled by the allure of the brand, focusing on quality first! I like this guitar, I like the look, everything I like! And yet I had no idea before that Washburn.
