All user reviews for the Whale WPSL-ST

Read below. Finally, if the body is Agatis, timber certainly noble but so lightweight. This material is often used by Squier also !! What is striking is really the ease in the game (sleeve), it's a rocket and the beginner will navigate. I am a beginner and I've tested other guitars whose sleeves are beams and again nothing to envy to a stratovolcano. The finish for the price of the time is more than correct.

UTILIZATION

Again this is a very guitar (too) easy to play.

SOUNDS

Of course given the config and look we think Heavy / Hard Rock, but not that! So you read a lot about sound and microphone, say that for the price range and it's all good ... And given the different configs of each, how to get a real idea other than the 'or even trying? It is a real alternative to Squier and Ibanez ...

OVERALL OPINION

Be careful not to confuse it with a narwhale that it was the "high end" brand (Seymour Duncan), which is trading at prices still reasonable (if you find one!). For this one there pay between 70 and 100 € max next state and accessories. Brand (French, now defunct but nothing wrong ... Truly a beginner guitar super easy to play!

if I was a beginner again I would do again but this choice because you can be the two times I could not repeat that choice lol

Bon bah for all that is technical specifications, see the notice before or directly to the manufacturer's website.

UTILIZATION

Question accordance quick and I must admit I not expect that it is more than adequate without being either of high-end easy access to acute, it is well balanced and weighs 30 kilos so not good.

SOUNDS

I am rather axs blues / rock and sometimes metal and this guitar is fairly typical. it has a micro HSH config so 5-way switch. I would note only good points for the neck position and other bidge generates too much blow guns and chokes her a bit. Disagree vivrato forget it too fast guitar.

OVERALL OPINION

I have for some years now, this note and of course has to take into account the range of this guitar. It quite appropriate for beginners who want to make the hand. We can find for about 100 not a conditons AIM demeusur the form of another move rather squier, cort ... Exprience I would do with that choice.

UTILIZATION

The handle is extremely pleasant and very easy to play the first few uses, it's really a rgal.
The fever is still a gate fingers and the last boxes are achieved without cramps =)

The guitar is rather lightweight (compared to others) but it is true that one begins to feel it after 3, 4 hours intensive!

As for sound ... That's another story micro whale is not the top (besides, I've changed and that we pass in OD or Disto means more than a boiled sound, the acute Finally, it's a little drool the cata.

SOUNDS

This is a guitar orientemtal and big sound, which are not in the lace.
I never play in so I quickly mtal DGIG old microphones.

Nanmoins the mtal makes it very well because it is embedded effects, with a wha, a big distortion, chorus (flanger) and a delay, it makes it mtal on =)! But we s'loigne music.

I played with the old pickups a directory blues / pop / rock with some saturation, but not too violent either (rock genre US), I used mainly a Cry Baby, a Fanzy Fuzz, a Boss OD - 1 or encorequelques delay and reverb, a Pignose 7-100.

The bridge pickup is incredible fuzz on the Pignose (I think it's just the amp nanmoins =) is the only positive micro.

Because the center is non-existent, it is not absolutely understood, level of output should be in the 5k (simple) while the double is around 13k, in other words I have ever used!

If the sound is quite cold and without much character!

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for 2 years and is now completely diffrent (customer =). I could not stand the color, if the sound horrible.

For ease of playing against her is awesome, I never jou so comfortable with a guitar (my opinion).

The report price is rather good quality, but I concede it's not the microphones.

I do not think that choice again, because I do not play mtal and that's his main quality.
Finally for my directory, I would have chosen a Squier 51 '!

Read below, all is said

UTILIZATION

The handle is quite nice although the holding of the agreement is average. the access is easy to acute
Ergonomics is good for a guitar of this price, it is quite balanced and we can play standing or sitting without a problem.
the sound is easy to obtain, as usual selection of micro and settings of the two knobs, and c go!

SOUNDS

C guitar versatile enough even if it responds better in large saturations, it behaves the same
really well in these sounds rock / metal and hard for an entry level.
or we can play a little about every style of music.
I played with a marshall MGCDR 15 w (to avoid this amp) and then on a roland micro cube (the one to buy)
she responded very well on the roland, the marshall is so bad that even with a PRS, it will ring it.
the bass is quite heavy and accurate, but lacks the midrange round can be a bit of fishing, depending on the setting are acute, sometimes brittle, sometimes a little feeble, but it's still okay

OVERALL OPINION

It was my first guitar, I have not played for over a year but I have good memories, great guitar for a beginner who wants to go rock / metal. the most was the price for a quality finish and very respectable, sound with microphones easel.
comes the weakness may be the material of the nut that seems wrong, other than that ... not much
a good value for money, I would definitely do it again this election time

I think that says it all does.

UTILIZATION

The handle is trs enjoyable it can surprise even for this price range.

SOUNDS

J'coute enormously Metallica guitar silent so this what I needed for beginners.
I'm in and I choose to retype a kit to Zakk Wylde's a little boost.
The old silent pickups a little soft and do not have enough power when playing with a battery.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been 1 year and a half that I use and I'm pretty happy even if it does not measure up to my EC400 ltd.
Qur I think I would do this choice because it is shaped properly and everything has a spirit fai mtal me is everything.

UTILIZATION

SOUNDS

I have no style, I'm trying to play beginners and a little of everything.
I bought it bundled with the Marshall MG10CD.
Easily obtained sounds very fat, especially on the bridge pickup is good for trs rock, mtal, hard.
The crystalline sounds seem impossible with this combination, the micro as simple low. In his clear, it is closer to a folk guitar as a Telecaster!
When using the Overdrive channel of the amp must rgler the volume on the guitar at a low trs, otherwise the gain potentiomtre Submitted do no more shade and it's a quick n ' get a spray of sound.
Apart from the lack of crystalline sounds, I like the sounds you can get and go from blues to mtal condition to treat some rglages possible!
Added 09/05/2007: I replaced the microphone by a single central GFS 5.55K Alnico Boutique Start Pickup $ 17.95 (22 pounds), and it is day and night, even Marshall on the poor! The original single is really nonexistent, even by changing its height. With it, has still less powerful than the humbuckers, but what a sound!, Making two double bland. Conclusion: we will have to change too!
Added 11/11/2007: I replaced the neck pickup with a GFS Vintage 59 and the bridge pickup with a GFS Crunchy Paf. Miracle! The clean channel of Marshall 10CD is perfectly usable, with a nice range of sounds, and the Overdrive channel, you can push more volume of the guitar before reaching the boiling sound links the "quality quot; of this amp! trs For a price reasonable, it is possible to eliminate the main default of this guitar's pickups (default pool all the guitars cheap. Highly Nol replace (may be) this amp (for the price of the pack, you can not expect any more of the same, and can Get You Started inexpensive when you're not sure of Necessary for attendance have persvrer)
Added 06/01/2008: Does the Marshall replaced by a Hughes and Kettner Edition Blue 60DFX. On the clean channel (high point of this amp), the guitar sounds really nice trs, trs crystalline highs. Vintage 59 in the handle is fully expressed, it became my prfr. Trs difficult to believe that it is costing a guitar so cheap (169 pack original 76 for about three microphones pounds).

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using ending for two months. (Added 11/11/07: 5 months of use)
I like to finish (well compared to the price sr), his contact trs enjoyable, and I do not regret that his incapacit (links mine?) Produce sounds crystal.
Without great exprience, I find his pickup bluffing. (Added 11/11/07: indeed, it is virtually the only original user)
I had the hands that Squier Affinity before this one and frankly, I'd compare it srieusement because the Whale seems to me far above, for a price far below.
The quality-price ratio dcoiffant:
Guitar, bag, amp, cable of 3 meters, mdiators, mthode (very well done, with cd), all for 169. What fun and dj be able to get an ide to give more passion beginners.
With exprience, I do it again the same choice for the budget, if not a hundred dollars more, I'll see Yamaha!
Edit of 06/01/2008: not even! I do it again the same choice after all. For the GFS pickups coupled with Hughes and Kettner Entire give satisfaction, and overall the budget is reasonable trs. It's really the guitar, once modified, which allows to learn and go on enough to afford the guitar of his dreams.

The finishes are treated for particulirement A model of this price (varnish, frets ...).

I notice all the same After a few years of use and small tasks verdtres start out on the handle. The wood works ...

Sold the era with cover + strap nylon + jack + spare tremolo spring and allen for cls SETTING THE it.

UTILIZATION

Vritable is a pleasure to play on the handle of the WPSL-ST. It is a perfect copy of Ibanez. Excellent dcoupe the cutaway and heel makes Access in boxes dernires trs simple!

At the game the right hand the microphone does not facilitate the central game mdiator, but you get done quickly.

The guitar is not overly heavy body shape is reminiscent of a stratum, plus a small bevel on the table to rest the right forearm.
When the vibrato, it dsaccorde guitar every time you use them and it is better not to touch it or risk having to send the guitar to SAV. This thing is a dcoration than anything else really. I do not understand also the intrt to mount vibrato on guitar in this range ...

Level I would say it's generally acceptable. The humbuckers + single mix allows for versatility INTERESTED. It sometimes against me by the sound goes off when the volume knob is not pushed back. This can s'avrer Gnant if you count the noise dlivr by the latter to vary from clean and crunch sounds ...

SOUNDS

I play mostly metal, rock and some blues. J'apprcie the dynamism of the bridge humbucker on all my clean and distorted sounds, and I sometimes use the central single coil for a more crystalline clean and overdrive softer for a bluesy solo for example.

I rarely seek humbucker neck because it tends to sound too fat and does not have enough forward momentum of my taste.

The guitar amp on a single branch dvoile sound enough "fuzz" in saturation, which can s'avrer fun to play rock.

OVERALL OPINION

A good guitar for beginners. It is versatile and offers a report qualitprix unbeatable!
For a few years I have now. This is my guitar Premire and she arranged for me to do well by hand until we have the means to buy better.

I take today's long-type tune Fender (643 mm memory ...) to use it as a baritone guitar to play Drop B, following a small RVision in the luthier.
I did see him in all colors, trying several brands and tie string tuning Varis (normal, drop C, drop B. ..) And I must say it has held up remarkably well for a guitar of this price! The handle s'tait curve and leaving it silent in the luthier like new and I let DCID DEFINITIONS Drop in B with a 11-70 shooting.
If one day I shall decide to change tuning yet I was passing through the box maker immediately.

It is empty with lexprience I will not repeat that choice but I would recommend this guitar without a hsitation beginners who does not have many ways and wants to Get You Started his apprenticeship on a guitar good quality workmanship.

I'll end up on a small parenthse on nylon cover that offered with silent guitar.
The silent for good. Especially for a guitar of this price, but s'arrte l.
The padding and impermabilit are poor and most drle is that the straps to put the cover on the back are held by hooks and carabiners plastic! The shit quickly breaks after a few weeks, dropping the guitar whose fall was cushioned by the t fortunately after the foam Straplock infrieur ...

So should you buy this guitar with its cover of OCCAZ Whale original advice: Replace this dernire as soon as possible!

Guitar not too heavy and well balanced

Micro home just a little rope and original (especially if the mid and treble) Fragile

SOUNDS

Very good clean sound (with my Marshall MG15CDR)

Simple Micro is useless casiment

OVERALL OPINION

Jai this guitar for 3 months
I think it looks great and the finish irprochable for a guitar in this range and especially Asian manufacturing
This is my first electric so I just not really a behavior of another, but it is very suitable for beginners
Raport quality very good price

Manufacturing Indonsienne, handle 24 cases.
The body is Agathis, Maple neck with rosewood fingerboard
2 humbuckers and 1 single microphone, with a 5 position slecteur
1 volume knob and one tonalitbr /> Mechanics has oil bath
Vintage vibrato (no top)
It is decent for the price all the same.

UTILIZATION

The neck is very pleasing as flat and thin, so fast. It's good for beginners!
Good ergonomics, it can be the highlight of the skyscraper, it is lgre a little fragile, and the ACCS Acute ais (except for 2-3 LATEST, especially since the the frets become a bit too narrow).

SOUNDS

Well, it's clear that the low-end c'tait my first guitar in a pack (like everyone else I think).
In clean, she dbrouille in overdrive, c ugly, messy, not specific on. In disto, it becomes a little more intressant, but lack of punch and power, a little soft, so I would exit the mtal despite its looks. The bridge pickup is suitable for rock / hard rock but have not much to ask for APRS ^ ^ The microphone is really simple accessory to look pretty and be like "look at the guys, I have 5 microphones me!". The handle is exactly like the bridge, but warmer (it's recess in the neck position), so for rock and blues solos. The vibrato is not top, the guitar or can ydsaccorde pter rope (Pink Floyd powaaaaa). I played it with a Marshall MG15CDR, and often even when I had a buzz from the pickups but also a little bit of overdrive pedal and a distortion of the buzz even when silent pr feels.
In other words, the sound is not very specific on and a little soft, but enough for a Premire scratches, and clean it dfend. I put 7 because for the price it is costing a dfend.

OVERALL OPINION

I used 2 years as Premire guitar, quickly replaced by an ESP LTD KH-202.
This guitar is more than sufficient as Premire skyscraper, the ergonomics are good, the neck is good, the guitar is lgre but a little fragile. The sound is not too bad for the categories between skyscrapers, but remains fairly specific on (overdrive), without a sound personality and a little soft in distally. The clean is good.
The microphone is just useless (it is even more buzz than double what is normal, but then not very usable).
The report qualitprix is decent, I probably would do that choice for my first guitar. Anyway, if you buy it, do not be stubborn and try to keep the boost by changing microphone, etc. ... wood is not a remarkable quality, so keep your money to buy a new guitar, unless the change is costing you a 30aine euros and you intend to keep it 2-3 years.
I put 7 which is a 7.5 for quality price ratio.
