Guitar made in Japan and very good finish.
The wood of the guitar should be maple.
The bridge is a BendMaster Deluxe licensed Floyd Rose, of suitable quality.
The round handle is screwed and covered with a thick, blue paint for mine (also existed in red).
A humbucker and two single coil.
The guitar has a volume and a push-pull tone that allows you to split the humbucker.

UTILIZATION

The handle is a delight to play and maintenance because after 23 years of use, it is still like new. However, access to the latest freight is not the best because it is located at the handle / guitar body connection.

SOUNDS

The sound is rather fat and may even miss some Acute different amps and preamps used. The factory pickups sound fairly flat mostly single coil-starved shine. So I chose to replace these pickups by Seymour Duncan SH-8 Invader in the bridge position and two Tex Mex Fender. Now, the sound is fantastic on 5 positions.

OVERALL OPINION

This is a guitar that I am not a fan of the look but I will never part as it is enjoyable to play and delivers a sound that I love. However, to really get the sound with a microphone replacement is required.
