Value For Money : Excellent
Made in Korea, it seems
Two Alnico humbucker, 22 frets
Fixed bridge
a volume knob and a knob Tone for each pickup, 4 knob in total and a 3 position selector
D handle wide enough grip, the varnish is not as slippery as satin sleeves, so a little slower than a Start for example

UTILIZATION

Channel trs enjoyable, only I think we just did not like the pitch as the shorter you have less the impression of "swimming in the frets," the bends are reactive, nickel.
for Access in acute is an SG, so sensational, it is much agreement unlike what some say.
ergonomics, that is to say that the play could not feel it as sitting for hours without getting tired feet, it is so slight, of course must hold it upright as it pitches down but does not bother me APRS while not really when you have a guitar is played!
dpend sound good on the amp, one begins not on the head and arm rings.

SOUNDS

Yes, blues, rock, hard rock, it's nickel.
I use a Marshall MG100DFX with a VOX wah wah.
I use the bridge pickup for rhythm overdrive with an incisive and well
and the neck pickup with the tone down or even 0 trs for solo round a good bit of Slash.
the sound is bold desire we want more!
I like the crunch and overdrive well saturated, clear sound I recommend a little reverb or chorus, to make the sound less flat.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 5 months, I love her aparence, weight, I tried a Squier Start (its not enough pais) and an Epiphone LP, I prefer the LP in the SG, so I LP Gibson would take in (when I MRIT and that I can afford it), the ratio price quality is good, say nothing, I think with the experience I do it again the same choice, there are a lot interesting guitar in this price range.
